Seal Cottage is a perfect holiday rental in every way.. The furnishings and equipment are top quality and everything you can possibly need has been thought of. The beds are extremely comfortable which was most appreciated. The location of the property is great. It is a 5 min walk to the village amenities and there are lots of walks from the cottage doorstep including the easily accessible coastal path. What a glorious coastline which we could fully enjoy given the great weather we had.

We love Seal cottage.. The owner has thought of everything you might need and makes it such a comfortable stay. For some the steps might be too much as you can’t unload directly from your car, but a minor thing and is clear in the description.

Seal Cottage is a lovely little gem in this part of Devon.. We visited Woolacombe some 25 years ago for several holidays and wanted to return to this beautiful part of Devon for a long weekend. We stayed at Seal Cottage, it is lovely, it had sea views from the lounge and upstairs main bedroom. All three bedrooms were doubles with the most comfortable beds and two bedrooms were en-suite. The owners had thought of everything, you wanted for nothing. We had our own holiday home in Lanzarote for 11 years before selling it two years ago so we know what it is like to rent property and our feedback was always 'like home from home' and this is exactly what Seal Cottage is, a 'home from home'. Although we went into Woolacombe each day, we could not wait to return to the cottage for a lovely relaxing family time together just chilling and watching some films. It was so quiet and the owners had on supply for you games, freeview TV and if you wanted a picnic the cooler bag and plastic cups etc were there for you to use. Everything from the kitchen equipment to the bed linen were top quality. We will certainly be returning to this little haven we have found. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Wonderful cottage in a beautiful location.. Cottage was very comfortable and equipped with everything we could have asked for and more.

The house is well situated, in a lovely quiet spot, pretty village and delightful area.. There are steep steps to get up to the front door, which might be tricky for some. Good directions to the parking area, for which we were grateful. Beautiful views from front of the house, and lovely walks nearby. Most rooms well furnished and comfortable; the third bedroom has less storage facilities than the others, and no mirror or dressing table. The other bedrooms are very good, clean, with excellent en-suites. The kitchen is well stocked, with good quality kitchen wear, everything one could need. Sadly, the mobile telephone signal is appalling and it was rare that we could communicate with family, from within the cottage. There is a landline, to which we needed to resort and the honesty box is a nice idea. The cottage was booked, quite clearly for 3 people, and a confirmation email sent to this effect, however, there were only sufficient towels for 2 people. We did contact the owner/caretaker on the number provided who rectified this omission immediately. The Devonshire cream tea supplied as a complimentary welcome gift was also only for 2 people.

What an amazing cottage to spend a winter break in.. The views from the cottage are wonderful and with the place being so well equipped and comfortable it provided the ideal place to relax in with the family. There's something for everyone no matter their age from a cosy log burner, family games, toys, Netflix, WiFi and portable Bluetooth speaker, not to mention the excellently equipped kitchen and bathrooms and the clean comfy bedrooms. Amazing value for money!

Seal Cottage was extremely well equipped, with everything thought of, even pegs, cool box etc.. Everything was spotless/ brand new. Washing machine had a dryer facility too which was helpful due to the weather. The location was great, with easy access to shops, pubs, hill walks and the beach.
