"The location is fantastic with many restaurants and pubs within walking distance and we visited some beautiful parts of North Devon we had never seen before such as Combe Martin and Lynmouth."
We wanted an apartment with a view and were not disappointed, it is beautifully appointed and had everything we needed for a luxury break. My only disappointment was that I left an item of clothing, but didn't need to be , as after calling Ethan, he quickly parceled it up and shipped it back to me.

"No.6 Arlington Villas was everything we had hoped for."
Clean, modern, comfortable and spacious for our family of 5 (2 adults, 2 children 1 baby). Modern appliances and everything we could need for the week.

Only complaint really was that the mattress in the main bedroom was stained and it spoiled what would have been 5 star reviews for the price paid i would have expected a clean mattress
Thank you for taking the time to send in your feedback. We were sorry to hear your comment regarding the mattress in the main bedroom, had you mentioned this to our housekeeper during your stay, he would have come over to the property to checked and see what could be done. Since your departure the mattress has been checked and we have not found any evidence of any staining to the mattress. Property Owner

"Amazing apartment with a lovely view from the balcony."
The facilities within the apartment were lovely & lots of attention to detail to make it home from home, loved the welcome pack & very fluffy towels. Very glad of the lift after the short but steep walk back to the apartment from the town & secure building & had designated parking as described.
-

It was spotlessly clean and everything about it is good quality. The bed is very comfortable and the shower is excellent. In addition it has a superb view from the living area / balcony. Good WiFi and having an allocated parking space are a bonus.

"We arrived at the apartment on the 22nd December fora Xmas break and we were immediately bowled over by the apartment and the amazing views!"
!.The apartment is modern and tastefully decorated throughout, everything we needed within this aptment and Sandy was only a phone call away if w e had any queries.We went for a few walks by the quayside and along the front which were lovely but have to admit we were here for a rest and that is what this apartment delivered in spades. Our highlight was sitting by the window in the reading/viewing chairs ,which are SO comfy. We will be back!!!!

"What a fantastic holiday property."
Comfortable, beautiful, great view, in walking distance of town and the harbour. On-site parking is good. The little touches left for our arrival was beautiful too. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if there was some milk when we arrived. I’d definitely recommend this for property to anyone looking for somewhere to stay that has everything
-
"Excellent property which truly deserves its 5 ticks rating"
-
"6 Arlington Villas is a lovely apartment with terrific views."
The owner was very helpful (not intrusive) in providing information. It is well equipped, modern and clean. The block has a lift which is useful when arriving /departing and parking was well organised and secure. We would return!
-

Walking distance to all amenities.
-
"Amazing,the apartment was spotless with everything you could ever need."
Very comfortable with excellent views over the bay. Excellent communication regarding arrival and a very welcoming bottle of wine and fresh milk in the fridge. Nothing has been spared here. A must for anyone wanting a relaxing break.
-
"Clean comfortable and well equipped flat with wonderful views from lounge and dining area in a central location."
Very well maintained apartment block. On site parking very convenient. Appreciated pre arrival contact from very helpful owner. View from bedroom not great, but not really a problem.
-
"The Arlington Villa was excellent in every way."
Location , quality of accommodation, Very helpful owners. Accurate description from Sykes. Fully met expectations.
-
"This is an fantastic apartment with amazing views."
It it has everything you could need. The location was perfect with great restaurants, harbour and shops minutes away. We went to Woolacombe beach body boarding, its a fantastic beach, Rib boat tour from Ilfracombe was brilliant we saw porpoise, seals and a sun fish. Kayaking in Combe Martin was amazing. We visited Lynton and Barnstable. We loved Ilfracombe try the Thatched Inn , Wards Bistro, Tandoori Nights, Terrace Tapas and Giovanna and Luca all great places to eat. Definitely book restaurants ahead as there are other places we want to go to but fully booked from six weeks before we visited
-
"The apartment had everything you need, it was very clean amazing views."
We used the apartment as as base, as Ilfracombe is very central to some beautiful places, couldn’t recommend the apartment highly enough as you have your own parking space especially if your travelling with a nice vehicle you can relax that it is safe, but you do need to book restaurants in Ilfracombe well in advance not to be disappointed.
-
"Fabulous apartment in the best location ."
-
"Perfect place for a relaxing holiday by the sea."
Lovely spacious apartment with everything that you need. Spotless and very well presented. Great views even on a dull day and amazing sunsets on sunnier days.
-
"Lovely apartment, clean and very modern, fitted out to a very high standard Great views from the balcony, I would defiantly recommend this place Owners attention to detail is excellent, even phoning few days before we went to give us all information we required for the week."
-
"Fantastic apartment in prime locations."
Thoughtful touches like the welcome basket and anti-viral spray and wipes.
-
"This apartment is home from home."
You want for nothing as everything you need for an enjoyable holiday is provided. The view is superb, the beds are really comfortable. Sky sports and movies to keep the adults happy, Playstation to keep the kids happy! (As well as a cupboard full of games) As an apartment, the block is so quiet, yet its just a 10 minute walk to the harbour. Choices of restaurants and pubs around the town mean you wont need to cook! The next time we stay in Ilfracombe, we'll definitely stay in No.6!
-
"The apartment is delightfully fitted, furnished to a very high standard (5* Hotel), with a great view from the balcony, watching the tides and the sun setting over the hills."
A lovely place to relax, unwind, read a book, or watch the beach area directly outside. Parking is close by and in view. The apartment is very well equipped to dine in if you choose to, or close enough to walk to all the local pubs, restaurants and cafes although being on the top side of the hill, the walk back uphill will requires some stamina, but more than worth it when you are inside.
-
"Lovely place apartment absolutely wonderful Ilfracombe nice friendly area"
-
"Excellent communication with the owner."
Wonderful apartment with fantastic views. 2 minutes from pubs and restaurants. Apartment has everything you need and more. Highly recommend
-
"Perfect apartment and getaway, exactly what we needed and hoped for."
The apartment was exactly as described exceeded our expectations. Comms were excellent and checking in was a simple process. Once checked in the apartment was spotless and incredibly comfortable. Positioned to the seafront in Ilfracombe and with a fantastic view. We will be booking again and can't wait too return. Thank you
-
"We were two couples staying in this apartment which was stunning, spacious, well equipped and decorated to a very high standard, very clean,very comfortable, lovely bedrooms, and an amazing view."
-
"The apartment was very clean modern and probably the most comfortable apartment we’ve stayed in."
The owners have thought of everything that you need for a holiday, lovely views and walks Ilfracombe was nice and friendly will be returning to 6 Arlington villas.
-
"The apartment is genuinely lovely and felt very “high end” with nice touches throughout ."
The view from the inside and the balcony was perfect. Secure car park and only a short walk to local attractions
-
"The apartment is stylishly furnished with extremely comfortable beds and all the equipment you could wish for - we particularly appreciated the beach cupboard full of body boards, windbreaks, buckets and spades, fishing nets etc."
Kitchen delightful though with so many great restaurants just around the corner there’s no need to cook. The terrace was so lovely that I would never have left it except that the sun only got onto it after 5 pm. The whole apartment felt good - it was spacious, full of light, comfortable and handsome. Exceptionally nice bathrooms too.
-
"Fab location, beautiful views and very helpful management."
The cupboard full of beach-going paraphernalia was a great bonus, and the selection of entertainment for the children was spot on.
-
"We had a amazing stay,it was pure luxury,and the view was also amazing you really didn't have to venture out, watching the sunset was something else we definitely would come back again, the restaurant's were just up the road we went to 71 a small bistro but the food was very good and a walk to the harbour was only 6 minutes away, so thank you for are great holiday."
-
"The Owners of 6 Arlington clearly care for their customers."
They set out to give everything sensibly necessary. Disappointed to find an ashtray on the Balcony Table having chosen the property because it said 'No Smoking' (It did not cause us any problem). I am afraid that the Lift had a very bad smell noticeable for the entire week. I guess it comes from the 'Rubbish Collection Area' where the Lift possibly rests. (Again did not cause us any problem because it did not infiltrate into the property). I mention it because it is the first thing that a customer encounters when entering the Block and can start off by giving the wrong impression. Everything was well organised from Sykes point of view. Arriving, entering and leaving went like clockwork. The Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc Bottle of wine on arrival was a nice touch. Car Parking was perfect except for the thousands of messages left by the seagulls. I'm glad that we had Satnav to find the property. You might like to consider a crisper pictorial approach. A little disappointed with Ilfracombe itself. It did not match my memory of the Town arrived at 65 years ago when I was 15 and came to Combe Martin with the Boys Brigade. I guess it is not sensible of me to expect anything else but it now has a 'Blackpool' image when in reality the Town is anything but. Would we book again; Sykes - Yes; 6 Arlington - Yes; Ilfracombe - No. I/we have tried to be constructive based on many years of travel throughout the world. Hope it turns out to be useful to you. Regards Trevor & Margaret Rock

"Wonderful apartment overlooking Ilfracombe bay"

"We have stayed at 6 Arlington Villa twice in the last 6 months and cannot recommend it enough."
The pictures online look amazing but in reality, it really does surpass expectations. The location is ideal and it has everything you need for a luxury break. There is no expense spared by the owner and they have thought of absolutely everything, in order for you to have an enjoyable stay. The welcome pack which includes tea bags, biscuits, Nespresso pods and a bottle of wine is such a nice touch too. You have a lovely view of Capstone Hill and Ilfracombe seafront; you really couldn’t ask for a better view or location. It really is perfect and we will be back again.

"Fantastic holiday home, beautifully furnished, really helpful and friendly owner ..."
Fantastic holiday home, beautifully furnished, really helpful and friendly owner who was really great and went the extra mile to make us welcome would highly recommend this apartment to anyone and we would definitely return
-
"We really enjoyed our stay with two young children."
The apartment was beautiful and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. It was in a great location and we definitely return.
-
"Every year we stay in either Devon or Cornwall, and I must say that this Appartment is by far the highest standard we've stayed at, there is no expense spared, in decor, bedding, kitchen etc, in fact it felt like brand new and that nobody had ever stayed here before, as the decor was superb and immaculate and just perfect."
We are also impressed by the owner who choose to contact us several times to make sure we are happy, and also to offer advice, once again it's normally the agency or housekeeper that is the main contact, but saying that Michael from Sykes Cottages spoke so high of the property and the owner, which was a good sign. The beach can be seen from the balcony, but it's so quite and not noisy at all. The main restaurants and shops, bars etc are a few mind walk from the apartment and there is a Tesco supermarket a five min drive. We can't rave about this Appartment enough, in our eyes it's just Amazing
-
"This apartment was pure Luxury, Sandy the owner has thought of everything to make your stay perfect, the accommodation is well looked after and maintained, super view out to sea and although small, excellent balcony for the obligatory glass of wine or morning coffee!"
Great location on Ilfracombe sea front to watch the world go by or so convenient for all that Ilfracombe has to offer. The beds and bedding are top quality as are the fixtures and fittings, can't fault, would definitely recommend and would hope to stay again in the future.
-
"This is a fabulous, luxurious apartment which lived up to expectations."
We stayed for 3 weeks and although towels and be linen were changed weekly, it was disappointing to see that the housekeeper(s) failed to offer any cleaning services throughout our stay.
-
"This apartment was amazing - the views of the sunsets were stunning."
Immaculate apartment with every bit of equipment you could think of . The parking really helped as we had just had a week in Cornwall with extremely difficult parking Would definitely stay here again !
-
"The apartment was amazing."
Very clean, spacious and contemporary with excellent views. A great location near to some fabulous restaurants. A lot of thought and care has gone into making the guest feel as comfortable as possible.
-
"Fabulous luxury apartment with amazing sea views."
Spotlessly clean on arrival with a lovely welcome pack including a bottle of Marlborough Sauvignon - very nice touch. Lovely modern decor and furnishings. Games for the children, games console (which we hardly used as there was so much to do on the beaches), books and DVDs. Wet suit and body boards supplied. Very well equipped kitchen even down to scales, measuring jugs etc. Extremely comfortable lounge furniture and very comfortable beds, excellent location only a couple of minutes' walk to the beach and about 5 minutes walk to the harbour. Lots of pubs, restaurants and tea rooms within walking distance and even a Michelin-starred restaurant a few minutes' walk away. Designated parking space which is essential in Ilfracombe, medium walk/short drive to lots of other lovely beaches. We would happily come back here, probably the nicest accommodation we've ever stayed in on holiday.
-
"A very well appointed property within easy reach of the harbour and many other attractions."
The flat is very new and the public areas are kept very clean and tidy. The Parking is marked out with the flat number the space relates to so there is no prob;em with losing a space. The flat and the amenities supplied by the Owners are much more than we have experienced at any other properties and were very much appreciated. Due to the weather conditions at the time of our visit the owner telephoned us to make alternative arrangements for the booking due to snow and apologised because it had not been possible to arrange an arrival pack. Not a problem for us. We would thoroughly recommend this flat.
-
"Very minor issue was that I am only 5'2" tall and one or two items in the kitchen were out of my reach, tumblers and wine glasses in particular."
This in no way lessened our enjoyment of staying in this amazing apartment as my husband came to my rescue.
-
"It was such a lovely apartment with beautiful views, we’ll have no hesitation in rebooking!"
-
"The apartment itself was beyond amazing, the pictures looked amazing but the reality of it surpassed expectations."
The communication with the owners was second to none, they were polite, lovely and very helpful. You couldn’t ask for better views and a better location, lots of local shops, bars and restaurants and a short drive to a supermarket was all you could ask for. We’re literally counting down the time until we can return!!
-
"Very well appointed apartment in a quiet position overlooking the seafront, and convenient for shops and restaurants."
Good instructions for arriving, using the appliances and leaving. Absolutely no complaints

The property
This impressive second floor apartment looks out towards the sea, across Wildersmouth Beach and the viewpoint Capstone Hill in the popular seaside resort of Ilfracombe on Devon's north coast.
Less than a few minutes walk from the beach, restaurants, cafes and shops, you have everything here on your doorstep making this a wonderful choice for a relaxing stay without the need for daily car journeys.
Step inside this fabulous apartment to a soothing and beautifully styled, contemporary interior, open plan with large windows and patio doors that lead out onto the seaward facing balcony.
Soak up the coastal views from the dining table or relax in the designer leather recliners perfectly placed to allow you to watch the boats as they travel to and from the harbour.
A large corner sofa allows you to lounge in total comfort whilst you take in a movie, however the most magical position is the balcony where evening sundowners can be enjoyed as you experience the most mesmerising sunsets over the sea.
The apartment offers two superbly comfortable bedrooms, one with king-size bed and en-suite shower room, the other a twin that can be zipped together for a super-king bed on request.
There is a family bathroom, separate utility room and a separate locked store to store a bike or surfboards.
Walk out of the gated parking area and the town shops, restaurants are on the doorstep.
Visit the famous Tunnels Beaches a short walk, the hand carved tunnels created in the Victorian times, that lead through to a sea water pool and two beautiful beaches.
The pretty harbour is also within a short walk where you will find the famous Damien Hirst statue Verity that guards over the harbour entrance.
Enjoy a walk to the top of Capstone Hill, the viewpoint from the top is well worth the effort!
Should you wish to venture out of the town, the magnificent beaches of Croyde and Woolacombe are a short drive, both popular with families and surfing.
Take a trip to Lynton and Lynmouth and enjoy a trip on the cliff railway, or don your walking boots and explore the open moorland of Exmoor National Park.
There is so much to do and see in this region and once you arrive at 6 Arlington Villas, we can probably guarantee - you won't want to leave!
