Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Barnstaple

My family and I had a wonderful stay for a wedding last weekend. The house is great place to relax and just a short walk from the beach. The garden is really secure for dogs and has a side gate with a hose to wash off the sand after fun at the beach. Nic and Rick sent loads of really helpful information before our stay and were flexible with timings for check in and out. They are so friendly, are very responsive to any questions and left some lovely personal touches for our arrival (scones and jam, eggs, bread and milk!). Thank you for a great stay. We had a lovely time and hope to be back soon!!

Easy check-in/out. Marina was very responsive. Short walking distance to town - close to shops and restaurants.

Thank you so much for a fantastic stay at your bungalow & home. The views were even better in person & you went above & beyond with everything. I just wish we could have stayed longer. Everything anyone would havecneeded was there. Thank you once again Heather & Jamie 😁

We had lovely stay ! Beautiful, comfortable home in a picturesque setting. Very well equipped, had everything we needed. Venetia was very welcoming and helpful. Incredible value. Would visit again in an instant!

Lovely home, well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. Great for 4 legged friends with a secure garden and suitable furnishings etc. The home is in a lovely area , with great views over the estuary from the rear of the house, particularly the main bedroom. Bideford itself is very pretty and a good base for exploring North Devon as it is close to the A39 / Atlantic Highway.

This is our second time staying at westward Ho- we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Seabreaze, the lemon cake was great! house was perfect for a family of 4 with 2 young children, the garden space was perfect for those warm evenings- we were lucky with the weather! The house is located a little far from the centre, we have small children we drove into westward ho and parked in the car park and got a week ticket for £30- which was super! Lots to do around the town, the fish and chips were great, and an early dinner at Moran’s definitely recommend! The arcades kept the children and adults alike entertained! Hockings ice cream is an absolute treat! The coffee at Cabanna was fab! We visited Clovelly village which is a short drive away! Absolutely beautiful! We also visited Lynton and went on the steam train, as the drive was only a short distance we also went the Lynmouth where we enjoyed a good day out and went on the cliff railway! Which was fab! Great stay- definitely will visit again!

Epic views and surroundings at The North Hill Cottages. The friendly host family has an amazing spot the perfectly situated property lifts you high above the world to a place of tranquil peace and beauty. The cottage was perfect for us and the property offered as much or as little as we wanted to do. The hosts were responsive and available, the other guests were respectable and friendly as well. Highly recommended!

A lovely stay, had everything you could possibly need - we had two infants with us and loved the amount of space. Felt like we where out in the countryside but only 5mins from a big food shop. Lots of lovely walks nearby

Really a lovely and beautifully clean caravan, with towels and bedding and all the cleaning supplies etc so no need to bring too much from home. Stunning location you fall in love with straight away. Quiet in winter but you feel safe.

Very neat flat in the middle of Woolacombe. Pubs, restaurants, coffee houses and shops all within short walking distance. The are has so many walks and running routes as well as great swimming and surfing so great for active folk. Will definitely look to see if available again as this place is perfect for the area

Leilas appartment has a lovely view of the harbour. The walk down is fairly steep so consequently so is the walk back. It’s a good central point for checking out North Devon.

I had a wonderful stay. This gem of a property boasts a stunning location overlooking the entire town, offering breathtaking views that made every morning and evening truly special. The dedicated private parking space behind a secure gate was a fantastic bonus, providing peace of mind and convenience. The location is perfect—just a short walk to the heart of Ilfracombe’s charming town center, with its array of shops, cafes, and restaurants. The nearby Lidl supermarket was incredibly handy for stocking up on essentials, and the proximity to the beautiful beaches and local sightseeing spots made exploring a breeze. The property itself was immaculate, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for a relaxing stay. I can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to explore Ilfracombe and soak in the beauty of North Devon. I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

We had an awesome couple of nights in Barbrook! The apartment is super spacious- much more so than photos would suggest- and has everything you need for a cosy and comfortable few days exploring Exmoor and the north Devon coast. Spa bath is a really fun touch and great after a day of walking. Amazing location with river and trees literally on your doorstep, and the sea and Lynton 5mins away. Overall this place is great value for money, and we would definitely stay again if in the area. Thanks for a great weekend!

A fabulous apartment in a fantastic location. The place was stylish, very comfortable and oozed quality. Jose was a very responsive, friendly host. The guests I brought had a perfect first stay in Topsham and are already planning their next visit.

Loved our stay. Beautiful apartment, absolutely spotless and had everything you could possibly need. Loved the area it was in- walkable distance from the High Street in Minehead yet very peaceful with great walks from the doorstep through streets of beautiful houses and amazing views. Was visiting our daughter and didn’t realise Minehead was such a nice town with beautiful places such as Lynmouth and Porlock pretty near. Thank you for such a lovely place to stay

we loved staying at Tory's place! It has great views, enough space for us and we loved being there. Tory is very kind and thinks along with you when you have any questions. would definitely recommend :)

Great 2 day break away. A bit dated, but had everything we needed and the bed was very comfy.

+Fantastic location & surroundings +Very responsive & helpful host +Quaint, impressive house overall +Good outdoor space +Good for a larger group (6) +House well stocked with all you need -Some furniture is tired & some could be more comfortable -New linens would be good -Bathrooms could be modernised -Kitchen & dining room would be better as larger open plan

Rose Cottage is a lovely, old fashioned, quirky cottage - with lots of interesting objet d’art to discover throughout your time there. I loved how it is tucked away from the street, making it a really private space. Danielle was really informative about the surrounding areas and was on hand for queries. The living space downstairs is really relaxing (two of us learnt how to play chess in the lounge!) The outdoor space is really valuable as, I should imagine, in Appledore having a big garden is a real treat. The location is amazing - a minute’s stroll down to the quay - with the wonderful local shop, John’s, a stone’s throw away. We had fantastic weather, having lots of hot beach days in Croyde and Saunton Sands, but also loved catching the 5 minute ferry across to Instow village and beach. The attics bedrooms were a little warm (it was a very hot week), but Danielle kindly provided us with a fan which certainly helped on the top floor. Appledore is a magical place with beautiful cottages, great restaurants and Sylvester’s fish and chips are scrumptious - the first time I think I have ever managed to eat a whole battered cod! Thanks Danielle for a truly wonderful week’s holiday with the family.

Nile are a awesome man how help me a lot. My plan with the without the house couldn’t take me and my friends, so we were standing without anywhere to live thanks to Neil. My wife didn’t divorce me.

A madcap feast for the eyes! If you want a standard Airbnb filled full of IKEA then this place isn’t for you. If you want an authentic (and original) experience in a great location - then book it. Open fires, art, antiques, the sea all make up the DNA of Appledore and typify Myrtle Cottage as a microcosm of North Devon’s prettiest fishing village (that you don’t have to pay to visit!)

A Perfect Devon Escape – More Than We Could Have Hoped For! Our 3-day stay at this spacious North Devon villa was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the welcoming touches – including three bottles of wine that set the tone for a truly relaxing getaway. The kitchen was fully equipped, not just with all the essential utensils and appliances, but even stocked with some food items – a rare and thoughtful detail that made cooking a pleasure. Every corner of the villa is beautifully decorated, with stylish bedrooms and elegant dining areas that make you feel right at home. The highlight, though, has to be the stunning garden – a peaceful haven complete with comfortable garden furniture, hammocks, a garden cot with bedding, a grill, a cozy fireplace, and even a camping fire setup perfect for evening gatherings under the stars. It’s clear the hosts have gone above and beyond to create a space that’s as functional as it is magical. Another incredibl

We have just returned from a lovely family weekend at this beautiful house. There was plenty of space, loved the fact that every room has its own en-suite and an extra family bathroom downstairs which was great for bathing the grandchildren every night. The fire pit was a nice extra with wood provided and great to have the gas bbq with plenty of gas as well. A nice safe walk to the beach was great but if you have babies take a sling as the steps make it not very buggy friendly but this wasn’t a problem for us and we managed to lift our beach trolley down easily enough. The Sri Lankan takeaway from the beach cafe just up the road was fab and would highly recommend a trip there. To summarise, lovely house, with loads of space, great parking, nice garden and roof terrace and an easy walk to the beach, beach cafe or down into Croyde.

The house was everything expected and more. The amenities were over and above and made it so easy to feel at home and enjoy our holiday. We were a group of friends including multiple couples and there was lots of social space to be together as a group but still be independent with big spacious well thought out rooms. The house would suits friends or family looking to stay together,is suitable for kids and the fact it was dog friendly was a bonus for our 4 legged friend. The location was perfect, a short walk to the harbour and the sea view was beautiful. I had the master bedroom on the first floor and waking up to those views was amazing. Oliver was a fantastic host, quick to respond or confirm anything I needed. I would 100% recommend this home and everyone that joined us said the same. The home made our 40th birthday celebrations even more special. Thank you Oliver
