Ferndale greets you with a big WOW as you step through the door. What a fantastic place to stay for a week. It's absolutely immaculate, with bags of space and everything you need from a home away from home. It's got a well equipped kitchen, a spotless bathroom, and a comfy bed the size of a small country. The owners even provide eco-friendly cleaning materials and toiletries which I hadn't expected. The entrance even gets the morning sun, and so you can enjoy your coffee outside with a fabulous view across the valley. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.
The location is wonderful - it's just a 5-10 minute stroll away from Lynton with its selection of shops, eateries (The Oak Room, Charlie Fridays, and the Thai buffet at the Old Cottage Inn are particularly good), and art galleries.
It's convenient to walk into Lynmouth if you fancy the exercise there and back (it's a very steep hill and a great workout), and if you're interested in exploring north Devon it's within 45 minutes' drive of places such as Saunton Sands, Woolacombe, Putsbourough Beach, Ilfracombe, and Barnstaple's Tarka Trail for cyclists.
We'll most definitely be back.
