  • "Everything was perfect ,better than the pictures."

    Spotlessly clean, very comfortable just perfect. The views were amazing. The lift was great for our 80 year old sister she loved it. The advantage of a parking space was great. We hope to return soon. We have never been to Westwood Ho it is so clean and tidy. Loved every minute of the holiday. Thank you for the lovely cream tea it went down a treat.

  • "The Lobster Pot is an excellent apartment."

    The owners have provided everything you could possibly need for your stay, and are always at the end of the phone should you have any questions. Situated right in the center of Westward Ho! you have everything within easy reach, along with brilliant views across the green and out to sea. Although the splendid Guillemot Bar and restaurant is almost literally down stairs, even on the busiest nights we weren’t disturbed in any way. Obviously everything seems better in the sunshine, which we were provided with every day, but we would be happy to return any time of year.

  • "Lovely comfortable apartment with an excellent view of the sea."

    We had a problem with the Tv in the twin room in that it couldn’t find a signal & also there seemed to be several curtain hooks missing or broken on lounge curtain! Offended my mothers OCD lol Also couldn’t lock the doors onto the deck after taking some pics from there.None of these things I thought important enough to complain about. All in all a lovely stay in a wonderful place. Thank you

    It is in a wonderful location, and the property is very clean and homely. I've also never stayed anywhere with such a well-stocked kitchen either. And of course, the view over the beach and sea is stunning. Perfect for watching sunsets over the sea!

    It is perfect for our needs. Love to sit and watch the sea. Even in January there are plenty of eateries and food shops open in easy walking distance and the bus stop is really close too with bus to Bideford, Barnstaple and Ilfracombe. A great place to stay.

  • "A superb apartment, overlooking "the green" and the beach."

    My husband, myself and my 98 year old Mother spent a fabulous week here. There are absolutely no negatives it must be one of the best holiday lets ever. Cleanliness, comfort, range and quality of equipment provided, and views are all second to none. We were even serenaded by a saxophonist playing on the green each evening. Sykes were very professional advising me that as a first floor property we would be reliant on the lift, this proved no problem, it is specifically designed for the less able guest and very reliable. Once inside the apartment it is extremally spacious wheelchairs or walking frames can easily be maneuvered. Thank you to both Sykes and the owners for a great holiday to remember.
