  • "The property was a fantastic setting for our family holiday."

    It is in a wonderful location, and the property is very clean and homely. I've also never stayed anywhere with such a well-stocked kitchen either. And of course, the view over the beach and sea is stunning. Perfect for watching sunsets over the sea!

    It is perfect for our needs. Love to sit and watch the sea. Even in January there are plenty of eateries and food shops open in easy walking distance and the bus stop is really close too with bus to Bideford, Barnstaple and Ilfracombe. A great place to stay.

    Westward Ho was a lovely place to stay & all the staff in shops, bars & restaurants were friendly & welcoming. We couldn't have chosen better.

  • "A superb apartment, overlooking "the green" and the beach."

    My husband, myself and my 98 year old Mother spent a fabulous week here. There are absolutely no negatives it must be one of the best holiday lets ever. Cleanliness, comfort, range and quality of equipment provided, and views are all second to none. We were even serenaded by a saxophonist playing on the green each evening. Sykes were very professional advising me that as a first floor property we would be reliant on the lift, this proved no problem, it is specifically designed for the less able guest and very reliable. Once inside the apartment it is extremally spacious wheelchairs or walking frames can easily be maneuvered. Thank you to both Sykes and the owners for a great holiday to remember.

Faultless really and definitely the smartest holiday flat have ever stayed in. Highly recommended. We had a fantastic week there. Thank you !
