Seaward

Stayed for a week with the family in early August. Excellent location in the centre of Croyde within walking distance of the shops & restaurants (2 minutes) and the beach (10-15 minutes). Property is very well laid out with 3 full-size bedrooms and 3x bathrooms. Kitchen diner well presented with excellent storage (2x fridges and 1x freezer) and all the cooking utensils you could need! utility has the 2nd fridge and washer / dryer. Garden includes outdoor seating and plenty of space to dry wetsuits after a day at the beach. plus a hot tub to relax in. Easy drive to both Saunton Sands and Putsborough Sands for a change of beach and surf scenery. You can even walk the 3 miles up the beach from Putsborough to Woolacombe. Further afield Woolacombe and Ilfracombe are easily reachable by car in less than 30 mins. with lots more to explore within an hours drive. Great service from the housekeeping team (Claire) throughout the week if we had any questions. We are already looking at our next trip to the N Devon coast and will definitely book with Ocean Cottages again.

A lovely little warm house in an excellent location. Comfy sofas and beds and decent sized towels which makes a nice change. The whole house and garden are 100% dog friendly. As is the whole village ... we had a lovely weekend!.. only slight snag is the kitchen needs baking trays and a coffee machine.

Exactly what we had hoped for and then some! My 13 year old went in the hot tub every day and it was a perfect garden for the dogs. We stayed Christmas week and found it was equipped with everything we could possibly need. There was a lovely Christmas tree in the spacious lounge. We even had a pile of Christmas crackers, a luxury chocolate yule log, a box of luxury mini mince pies, a pint of milk in the fridge and a box of chocolates to boot!!! Very welcoming and would not hesitate to book again. I've been holidaying in Croyde for 45 years on and off and there's no place I'd rather be. 

The cottage is also on a quiet cul-de-sac just a few minutes away from the main shops and pubs. 

Thank you for helping us make more lovely memories there. 

Fantastic Stay thank you.  We've been coming to Croyde for 25 years for Xmas and this one ranks near the top.  Great location, great property, Thnak you.  I'd imagine we'll be back at some point in the near future!

Lovely property, perfect for six adults. Well equipped.

Lovely Bungalow very comfortable ideal base for good beaches and lovely waves, good time had by all.

We enjoyed our stay in this well-equipped bungalow with its pleasant garden.  We enjoyed visits to Ilfracombe and ten-pin bowling at the EX34 sports complex at Woolacombe.

everthing was as good as web site said lovely location very comfortable and well equiped . good base to visit north devon from wonderful beaches ideal for family holidays .

Ideal location for beach, shops and pubs. Thank you.

Myself, my husband, our daughter and son in law plus our two young grandchildren loved Seaward! It is very spacious and in a very quiet street (no traffic noise). A few minutes stroll to pubs and shops - perfect! The facilities are excellent. 3 bathrooms! We would love to return to Seaward soon and hopefully when we do the creaky bed in the garage conversion will have been dealt with (minor gripe). Thank you Ocean Cottages for handling our stay so well.

This is a really well equipped house in the centre of Croyde village. The beach is 15 minutes walk but mostly down a path and well away from traffic. Pubs and shops pretty much at the end of the road so v handy. House itself is nice with good sized kitchen and three big bedrooms. Small garden at the back gives some outside space.

A perfect place for grandparents, parents and children. We love the changes to the decor since our last visit. My daughter loved the pictures above our beds so much, she has asked for them for her 12th birthday! Perfectly equipped house, thank you for the tea, coffee, milk and cake, a fantastic surprise gift after our long drive. We recommend Watermouth Castle (our fourth visit) fun for all the family! Surf school at Saunton was great for the girls aged 6 and 11. On a cold wet day (when unfortunately we have had many) surfing at Woolacombe is great as you can change at the car and not have a long walk. Off to the manor tonight, we always visit when in Croyde. Thank you.

Another great stay, lovely clean house. We came the first time for a 70th. We love it so much here in North Devon.

A wonderful week full of sun, sea sand, and an endless supply of pastries, cakes and cream teas! Thanks for the welcome food and lovely comfortable & clean well equipped home from home. A great place to relax , unwind and enjoy special family time together Page Family

This was our second time at Seaward and it really felt like home. Even though we weren't too lucky with the great British weather this year, we had a fabulous holiday thanks to the comfort of this holiday home and I would highly recommend it to families with young children - superb!

Had a lovely time in a great cottage and great location. Croyde beach nice and Putsborough beach great although narrow road to get there. Recommend cycling on the Tarka Trail. Lots of nice walks. Great time Fox family

Lovely weekend in Seaward, comfortable and spacious.

Lovely cottage, very good situation so close to the village. Always love Croyde! Fab village Would recommend this cottage to friends.

A fantastic holiday has been had by all! Made use of all the local beaches which are very hard to beat. There is something for everyone from surfing to sandcastles. The cottage is in a perfect position, well equipped and plenty of space for the 2 & 4 year old. Thank you for the lovely beach bag, unexpected and much appreciated. Windwill family

Had a great week in a beautiful house. It is so quiet and relaxing here. Would recommend Williams Arms carvery and Squires chippy (worth waiting in the queue!) Great time

A beautiful garden - wonderful magnolias and camelias. Much enjoyed being so near the village. A perfect holiday

Our forth time staying here and we love it every time that we come. Thank you.

I stayed here whilst working in the local area it is a great alternative to a hotel. So much space that my parents gatecrashed with me for a weekend. Great national trust café on the way to Baggy Point. Easy bus rides to Barnstaple, Exmoor and Woolacombe. Lovely stay and I would come again.

Lovely comfortable property. Well equipped. Thank you. We will recommend Ocean Cottages.

Brilliant and thank you.

Fantastic time here in Croyde. A great bungalow in a great location. Peaceful and relaxing surroundings which was just what we needed. We would recommend this bungalow to friends and family and would definitely visit again. Thanks Ocean Cottages and Matilda.

Great time in a lovely house. We stay in Croyde at least four times a year and the accommodation is as good as any.

Two glorious weeks of Croyde sunshine in a very well equipped bungalow. Close to all amenities and places to visit. Fitted all six of us perfectly and very well serviced.

Fantastic week with the weather, couldn’t have asked for better. Lovely house in a perfect location and we used the beaches at Croyde, Saunton and Woolacombe – which were easy to get to. Having a Tesco in Braunton was ideal and the wifi was indispensable as we had two teenagers. The house has lovely big rooms! Had a great week in a lovely place. Thank you.

We had a wonderful week and the weather was great. The bungalow is excellent for a family holiday and we would definitely use it again. It was like being at home by the sea. Croyde is beautiful and the accommodation was first class. Thanks for very clean and well equipped bathrooms and kitchens.

We had a great holiday in Croyde. Lovely bungalow to stay in. Very clean and well equipped. I love the kitchen and the spacious rooms. Would recommend and will come again next year.

A great week with fabulous weather. A really comfortable and well laid out house. Made even better with being just a stones throw away from The Thatch. We would use again in the future. We've been coming to the area for over 30 years and suggest going to the beach, as we loved it.

We have had a lovely week in Seaward. Great location in Croyde. So quiet for being so central. The weather was very nice and we enjoyed days out at the local beaches. The bungalow was very well equipped.

A very well equipped house with a lovely well equipped kitchen. The beds were comfy we had a good weeks sleep. The weather was fantastic and the holiday was great. The location of Seaward is great and peaceful with a good view of the hills. Will consider stopping here again as it is a great location.

A very well equipped, comfortable home. We’ve had a fantastic few days and would stay here again! Great location and weather.

A very enjoyable three weeks over Christmas and New Year. We found the house clean, comfortable and very warm. The house was very well equipped.

A fabulous fornight in Croyde. Thank you for a lovely welcome and a comfortable two weeks. Thanks Matilda for recommending we visit Watermouth Castle and Cascades at Ruda. The children loved them so much that we went back to both! We will come again! Thank you.

Nothing but praise for this lovely place. It is well presented and perfectly positioned. Thank you.

Yet another wonderful fortnight in Croyde has been enjoyed by all. We have enjoyed the house and would like to thank Matilda for all her help and hope to visit again soon.

We have loved staying in Seaward. The house is fully equipped for our needs and we would stay here again. A lovely welcome by Matilda and her team thank you.

Very spacious bungalow in a great location. Had a lovely cream tea at Baggy Point and meals at The Thatch.

We had a lovely time. We are regular visitors to Croyde. The bungalow was in a great location and has all of the equipment that you would need. It is contemporary, clean and spacious. Arlington Court is great and we have had a couple of great meals at 'The Thatch'.

Lovely spacious and clean accommodation. We have had a super week. We love Croyde because there is always something to do. We can recommend Arlington Court for a day out and both 'The Thatch' and the 'Manor House' for food.

Loved the house we will definitely be coming back. Thank you.

The garden is a perfect place for gymnastics and hide and seek. Brilliant for easter egg hunts. The beds are so comfy and the house provides a superb space- very clean. It's close to the beach with a big kitchen for big dinners and it is very warm. Thank you Ocean Cottages for the bunnies!

We had a great time and thank you for the welcome gifts. We will recommend to others. Thanks for a wonderful time hopefully we will be here again soon.

Excellent time, loads of space and well equipped. Thank you!

Excellent pre--holiday communication with everything organised well. Arrived at the property to find it absolutely spotless and everthing virtually brand spanking new. All rooms very spacious light and airy. Kitchen very modern and well equipped. Nice large utility room with plenty of room to put beach stuff in. Outside a nice large lock-up with room to put a few bikes in and body boards. Clothes airer in garden for hanging wetsuits/washing on- but also washer/dryer in utuility room if required. Bedrooms all with very comfortable beds. Having three bathrooms was a godsend with having teenage children (and their friends) ! Also freeview and wi-fi essential for them too. I can't believe what a fantastic location this bungalow is in. It is just off the main street and yet it was so quiet. The daily ritual walk to the beach was made via the public footpath next to the pub and took about 15 mins. But it is all flat on stoned access track and very pleasant. The local bakers provided lovely fresh bread/pasties and croissants. However there is large tescos in Braunton if a big shop is required.
