Description

Nestled into Hele Bay and directly on the South West Coastal Path, At The Bay Apartment is a charming first-floor apartment with sea views, ideal for a family or a group of friends looking to explore the coast of Devon.

Ascend to the first floor and follow the tiled stairs to this wonderful property, where an open-plan living space boasts stunning sea views through large windows, creating a light and airy atmosphere.

Here guests can make the most of the fantastic contemporary kitchen, outfitted with stylish grey tiles and a selection of amenities to cater to your culinary needs, and here there is a dining table for guests to enjoy a heart-warming meal.

As the evening wears on, settle into the sitting area and enjoy a glass of your favourite beverage with a view across the beautiful local bay, reflecting on the days adventures.

Freshen up in the contemporary shower room before catching your rest in one of the three well-presented bedrooms, including a double with large windows and sea views, a second double with storage and a handy en-suite and a twin room.

Hele Bay is a lovely area just outside of Ilfracombe, offering a delightful beach, links to coastal walks through Forthglade and Hillsborough local nature reserve, Ilfracombe golf course, a local shop, café and pub, The Hele Bay Pub.

From here, head into Ilfracombe, where there is fantastic harbour with Damiens Hirst's 'Verity' golf course, aquarium, theatre, beaches and coastal walks, a local museum and a great selection of eateries and shops for guests to enjoy.

Hele Bay's clean water attracts many local swimming clubs and is great for water sport activities, as well as being very family friendly with sand and rock pools to investigate.

There are also opportunities for an action packed afternoon with further watersports and excursions available in Ilfracombe.

There are many more fantastic beaches to visit, including Woolacombe, Croyde and Saunton, as well as coastal walks and birdwatching on Exmoor in the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

All of this and so much more with a stay at At the Bay Apartment.

We loved this apartment so much.

Everything in it is lovely. Comfy beds, quality linen and towels. Spotlessly clean. Well equipped kitchen. Brilliant position, could watch the changing sea from the comfort of the settee... amazing! Could walk to Ilfracombe, so no need to use the car. The goody box was a really nice touch. Woolacombe beach is a must, its awesome. One suggestion, the ensuite bedroom would be perfect if it had some blackout curtains, as it was too bright from street lights for my liking. That said.....Have already recommended the apartment to friends. It's gorgeous

We had a fantastic week at At the Bay.

The apartment was very clean, with plenty of room for 5 adults and stunning views over the beach and sea. We loved having our coffee/tea sitting on the benches on the beach every morning and watching the dogs playing in the water. We also enjoyed exploring the rock pools when the tide was out and paddle boarding and swimming. The cafe below the apartment does excellent breakfasts and a range of sandwiches, cakes and a delicious cream tea. We also ate at the pub up the road, which has a nice beer garden at the rear. We were always able to park for free on the road, apart from when we first arrived which was mid-afternoon on a sunny Saturday, when we used the car park just up the road (£3.50 per day). You can walk to both Ilfracombe and Combe Martin on the coastal path, or take a shorter route by road. Nearby Croyde, Woolacombe and Lynmouth were all lovely. We have never returned to the same place twice on our UK holidays before, but definitely intend to return to At the Bay next year.

Gorgeous apartment, location couldn't be better for the beach.

We had a blissful time at Hele bay, swimming in the sea, sitting and watching the ocean (the highlight was a storm out at sea at night from our bed!). An absolute gem of a place.
