    “The Lookout is fabulous!”

    Such a lovely property and wonderful seafront location! Loved my time there. A little disappointed with the inflexibility of the Sykes booking system when unable to adjust my dates within 12 hours of reservation.

The property

Found on the shores of Westward Ho!, a picturesque seaside town, is this fantastic duplex apartment, The Lookout, featuring stunning ocean views.

Perfect for a small family who can't wait to built some sandcastles on the beach, or a group of friends ready to take in the sea air, and enjoy some alfresco dining with the wine flowing, with its two bedrooms and open and lofty living space.

Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the open-plan living space with light, letting in the fresh sea air via the balcony door, you can choose to relax in the shade in the sitting area on the stylish seating arrangement, or be drenched in sunlight on the balcony, the choice is yours.

Over in the kitchen area you have the benefit of a dishwasher to save time on any washing up from the day before, an electric oven and a gas hob, so the designated chef can get to work while you sit at the breakfast bar supervising, with a glass of wine!

When dinner is ready serve up on the dining table, which lies next to the second balcony at the back of the property, meaning you are guaranteed some sunshine on one of the balconies almost any time of day.

When it's time to rest, head downstairs to the first-floor and find the bedrooms; a twin room including two single beds and a travel cot available on request, with a shower room lying across from it, home to a washer/dryer as well.

The double room has a private sea-facing balcony as well as an en-suite bathroom with bath and shower over, so you can roll over and wake up to the ocean, before having a relaxing morning soak in the tub.

The beach at Westward Ho! is popular with surfers, with a surf school based on the beach, get yourself a wetsuit and have a lesson to see what all of the fuss is about, or maybe just to improve your form.

For some healthy competition head over to the go-kart track to race against your friends or family, or play a few rounds of golf at the golf course.

Within easy driving distance are the towns of Barnstaple for a walk around North Devon's largest town, and Bude where some of the best surfing beaches are like Fistral Beach.

The Lookout is a stunning property in an incredible location, perfect for an ocean retreat.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
