  • "The apartment needs a complete renovation, the bathroom is very outdated and there is no where to dry the towels also there was no bathroom cleaning materials available."

    Very limited utensils in the kitchen and very limited space inside the lounge area. Seating was uncomfortable also. Wardrobe sliding doors grated when opened and was very noisy. Loose floor boards in bedroom area when you get into bed and in front of the wardrobe. The internal stairs were very high and quite difficult for me as an older person,especially when carrying luggage etc up and down. But the views were great and the host was a lovely lady. Car parking was very tight and the access road was very narrow and difficult to turn into from the road.

  • "The owner was lovely, the apartments are on a steep hill and a narrow road but most of the roads around the area are like this!"

    We had a really lovely week.

  • "Basically, the bed was extremely uncomfortable as the mattress wasn't up to standard."

    The skylight was slightly open with no way of shutting it due to the height of the room. The couple in the next apartment had a a small child and a very noisy dog, both of which were allowed to make as much noise as they wanted. Our last evening there was spoilt by the dog barking at 10pm. All in all, our holiday was quite below what we expected. This is the first time I have ever left a bad review. Regards. Ian Sheriff.

    Very welcoming and a delightful start to our holiday. WiFi was a bit limited but didn't spoil our stay. Great location with fabulous views over the bay, town and river gorge.

  • "Though the property was really nice with stunning views pedestrian access to town was stated to be a walk through the garden."

    However actual access is via steep steps,carved into the hillside uneven in places. This is not a walk through a garden.You need to mention how hilly the area is as it is unsuitable for people with mobility issues. Vehicle access to property is via a very steep narrow road just about wide enough for an average saloon car to use. We could not obtain wifi while at the property.

  • "Our original holiday (with someone else cancelled last minute) obviously this was meant to be."

    Service from Skyes excellent, paid for holiday in the morning on holiday 6hours later. Real gem was the owner Gillian, stayed in Flat 4 as was free & had balcony would have been happy to stay anywhere at Clooneavin. Would go back and would use Skyes again.

  • "The room has the most spectacular views of Lynmouth."

    Gillian is a very nice welcoming lady who makes you feel as though the place is your own without any petty rules and regulations. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who likes walking as it is situated half way up the hill between Lynton and Lynmouth so whichever way you go you will be going uphill either on the way out or on the way back. It is a good base for driving to places like Ilfracombe and Woolacombe and Minehead. Best meal of the week was at the Blue Ball on the road out of Lynmoth really first class. Access to the property is up a narrow driveway not suitable for very large vehicles, my Jaguar S type was probably close to the limit for size. Over all this is a lovely place and I would highly recommend.

About the location

LYNMOUTH

Minehead 17 miles; Ilfracombe 19 miles.

Set directly on the coast at the foot of the Exmoor hills, this charming village draws visitors from near and far. Quaint Lynmouth sits between the river, shore and hills and offers small restaurants, tea rooms and inns. There are plenty of things to see and do, including a unique water-powered cliff railway with outstanding views, which links Lynmouth with neighbouring Lynton, the pretty harbour town where the fisherman’s cottages creep down towards the quay, and the distinctive Rhenish Tower sits proudly on the harbour wall. The National Trust own nearby Arlington Court and Watersmeet, a stunning riverside walk, and within the National Park boundary, the hills of Exmoor drop down to the sea where they shadow the Exmoor Heritage Coast. Romantic Porlock, home of Lorna Doone, is just 16 miles to the east, the coastal resorts of Minehead and Ilfracombe are both within 20 miles, with the hills of Exmoor dotted all around, and there are good shopping opportunities in Barnstaple, 20 miles away.
