Description

5 minutes from Woolacombe's world famous surf beach, consistently awarded blue flag status and voted in the world top 5 best beaches! Longbeach House offers contemporary and luxurious family accommodation with stunning views and high quality facilities. EV charging available.

 

Longbeach House is aptly named with its enviable vantage point gazing down over the golden sands of, arguably, Britain's best family beach - Woolacombe.  Consistently heralded as one of the finest beaches in the country (TripAdvisor voted it the best beach in the UK two years running), the pristine sands, backdropped by dramatic dunes and flanked by breath-taking headlands where the sea meets Exmoor, are less than a 10 minute stroll away.

Its location within the North Devon Coastal Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty makes Woolacombe a spectacular beach to visit at any time of the year.

Nestled into the side of the valley, Longbeach House commands sensational views across the sparkling bay and out, onwards, to mystical Lundy Island on the horizon with Devon's rolling hills opposite.   As the sun settles, the large sun terrace becomes the ideal place to luxuriate and admire the breathtaking sunsets.

Living

The spacious, dual aspect living room has bi-fold doors leading out to the terrace and garden and enjoys fabulous views across Woolacombe and giving stunning views of the beach, sea, and countryside.  There is comfortable seating for 6 people, a wall mounted electric fire provides a nice ambience and some heat for the cooler evenings, a Smart TV, Apple TV and fast unlimited secure broadband are all provided.

Dining/Cooking

The large separate kitchen / diner leads off the living room and enjoys similarly spectacular views and is fully equipped with everything you might need to prepare the perfect family meal including a Ninja Multi-Function Air Fryer and even an Onni 16 Pizza Oven!  The sun terrace can be accessed directly from the kitchen via patio doors.

There is also a separate utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer. A nespresso coffee machine, with a starter supply of pods, is provided for your stay.

Sleeping

There are 3 bedrooms in Longbeach House sleeping up to 6 guests. The Master Bedroom is a spacious room with a double bed and an en-suite shower room, mezzanine floor and views over the garden, Woolacombe and towards the sea.  

Bedroom 2, with a King Size double, enjoys the same views as the Master Bedroom and has an en-suite shower room.

Bedroom 3 has twin beds.

Bathing

To the ground floor there is a WC with hand basin, upstairs the main family bathroom has a bath with shower over, WC and basin.  Both double bedrooms benefit from modern en-suite shower rooms.

Outside

Outside there are surfboard racks, wetsuit rails, sun loungers, a BBQ, fire-pit and a large table and chairs where the whole family can dine al fresco as the sun goes down. 

The property benefits from two off-road private parking spaces with a dedicated (£20 charge - cables not provided) EV Charge Point. Please note Ev charging must be booked in advance of your arrival day.

Good to know

Bed linen, bath/hand towels and wifi are all included free of charge.

This property does not accept pets.

Walk to the beach - 5 minutes

Walk to village - 5 minutes

Woolacombe centre, with its amazing range of bars, restaurants, pubs and shops is but a short walk away and nearby there are a myriad of sights to see.  You could venture along the coast to Lynton and Lynmouth with its functioning Funicular Railway, Ilfracombe and the working harbour and Damien Hirst exhibit or further afield, Exmoor with its heather-covered moorland and pretty, chocolate-box villages.  There are so many more places to explore right on the doorstep that this makes Woolacombe, and Longbeach House particularly, the compelling base for your holiday.

Easily accessible from anywhere in the country via the M5 and the North Devon Link Road - it's perfect for a fortnight, a week or just a long weekend of indulgence.

Longbeach House is an end terrace property.

Should you elect to enjoy Longbeach House, we are convinced you will have a truly memorable holiday as so, so many others have done before you.

Review in the Property Review Book:

We have had a wonderful holiday at Long Beach House. The views are fantastic and the house itself is amazingly high-spec. The weather has been unbeliveable (and we didn't pack appropriately). We enjoyed walks on the beach and to Morthoe, and even a nostalisic day trip to Croyde. We enjoyed food at The Beach House, the Red Barn, the chip shop and pastries and cream teas. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay and imagine we will be back for a third.

Olly   Sep 2024
This holiday has been amazing!

We loved the beach. The weather was good on a few days so we went to the beach and did body boarding - the waves were really big and fun to ride. On the not so hot days we went on 2 walkss - one was on Baggy Point and the second one was on Morthoe which were great. Also on one day we went to The Milky Way and that is a really good theme park. We have enjoyed this holiday lots and thank you for the biscuits in the ktichen and we hope to be back soon. (Aged 10)

Very well appointed house in a wonderful location

We had a very relaxing stay at Long Beach House. The house overlooks Woolacombe with a fantastic view of the sea from the spacious patio, kitchen/diner, lounge and two main bedrooms. The house is very well appointed with everything you need for a great holiday. It's also within 10 minutes walking distance of the centre of Woolacombe and the beach. Thoroughly recommended!

Good, but...

Great location with lovely views, spacious and comfortable. However property needs updating as it shows wear and tear from letting. Overall good experience, but taken down rating as the kitchen was a big let down due to not being touched by the housekeeping service at all: dirty work surfaces/cupboards from previous occupants, oven, microwave and fridge freezer haven't been cleaned for a long time. As a mother with young kids, kitchen is one of the first things you check. Needless to say I wasted an hour sorting it out myself as needed to use it asap for the children after a long drive!

Management comment
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the lovely Long Beach House. We are very sorry that you were disappointed in the cleanliness of the kitchen, we find this most unusual as we rarely receive any such complaints. We have forwarded your comments to our housekeeper however, we do run a 24/7 line for guests, and had you telephoned please rest assured the owner's housekeeper would have attended to discuss and rectify any issues. With regard to the decor, since your visit in March, the whole property has been redecorated inside and out and is looking tip-top. We look forward to welcoming you back to Ocean Cottages on your next visit to the surfing beaches of beautiful North Devon.
Fantastic Stay!

We have just had a wonderful few days at long beach house. Perfectly situated above Woolacombe beach.
The house is immaculate and so well equipped with all the best branded kitchenware …. Was a real special treat.
The beds, bedding and bathrooms are first class. We will definitely be going back and sooner rather than later.

Glorious View

We had a super week at Long Beach House. We managed some winter surfing and coastal walking. The house has a glorious view south west - from the living areas and two double bedrooms you can see the length of Woolacombe beach - hard to take your eyes off it! We found the house to be spotlessly clean and well equipped. The location is perfect with a short walk to the beach and village.

Phillips Family   Dec 2023
Great place, lovely situation and high level of fitting out.

Easy to access and all as expected. Comfy rooms and well kitted out kitchen. Our only negatives are small - dont like the kettle - takes an age to heat up and the handle is very hot so easy to burn your hand! I think it would be good to have a recycling bin in the kitchen as well as the general disposal.

Thank you for your review and we are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the lovely Long Beach House. We appreciate your feedback and after speaking to the owner, they have gone ahead and purchased an electric kettle for the property. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have drawn the owners attention to your comments regarding recycling arrangements in the property. We do hope we can welcome you back to Ocean Cottages and Long Beach House and thank you for taking the time to review your stay.
Brilliant

The service and detail of Ocean Cottages at our recent stay in Woolacombe was brilliant. Very prompt and efficient with the service, communication and documentation around the house. First thing I did when I got home is start to look when I can go back and Ocean Cottages will always now be above other properties in my consideration

Rob G   Oct 2023
Great Location, Huge Views!

This house is genuinely big enough to accommodate 6 adults. We stayed a week. Plenty of space inside and out, decent size bedrooms, nice bathrooms, and lots of the stuff you need to make a holiday work without having to take it with you. In a residential private road up on the valley side the house and its patio have enormous views over the wide beach, the sea and some countryside too. In the immediate foreground is Woolacombe, a few minutes walk down to its centre. The two proper car parking spaces are a real asset.

Hilary & Stuart   Oct 2023
Delightful stay

Had a lovely week in this well appointed house, with its views over Woolacombe and its beach. There was a well thought out welcome pack together with a comfortable, relaxing interior. There were two parking spaces which are very welcome in Woolacombe. The house is in a great position for the amenities and beach and we would definitely recommend a visit.

John and Jane Barnes   Oct 2023
Perfect for our stay

What a beauitful house; perfect for our stay. The sun shone constantly on our first day walk to Mortehoe, the BullPoint Lighthouse and Morte Point (stunning views!).

The following day we walked the length of Woolacombe beach and back, stopping at Putsborough Beach Cafe for refreshments ; the scampi and chips were perfect.

Thank you for a lovely mini break with friends.

 

Rachel, Joanne & Lucy   Oct 2023
A well appointed, welcoming house with a commanding view of the beach and coastline.

We have stayed at Long Beach House many times with friends and with family and it never disappoints! The house is pristine inside and out, with a well equipped open plan kitchen, convivial lounge, comfortable beds with soft cotton bedding, efficient bath and shower rooms and an ample terrace for al fresco dining, sunbathing or star gazing. You can never tire of the beautiful view across Woolacombe beach and beyond and with easy access to the centre, beach and coastal paths as well as proximity to other surfing beaches your holiday adventure begins as soon as you arrive!

The Bostles   Oct 2023
Everything was perfect and we love the views!

Another fantastic stay at Longbeach House - everything was perfect and we love the views!

Beach walks, cliff top walks at Mortehose and beyond - great dinners as Beachhouse restaurant and great owners at Electric Bar! Thank you so much!

Good weather and nice house

Good weather and nice house, we liked the playing cards.

 

Beautiful house, perfect for our family. Enjoyed 3 wonderful days of sunshine at the end of our week. Would recommend the curry on barricane beach - get there early to avoid the queues.

Lorna   Aug 2023

Beautiful house, wonderful sunny weather - we had a great time, thank you

Beautiful house in Woolacombe

We stayed at 'Long beach house' in April 2023 for 3 nights with our son and his fiancé and had the best time. The house is stunning with a beautifully furnished patio and bi-fold doors that open up to show off the amazing view over Woolacombe Bay. There's everything you need in the fully equipped kitchen with the added extra of a great coffee machine and a lovely big fridge. The bedrooms are light and airy with extremely comfy beds and all 3 have access to their own bathroom. The short walk to the center of Woolacombe is a great advantage as there are some lovely places to eat and drink with a gorgeous large sandy beach literally right in the centre. I look forward to returning.

Louise White   Apr 2023
Thank you so much!

We have had a wonderful week in the house with surely the best view in Woolacombe! We especially loved sitting in the sunshine on the patio and cooking with the amazingly well equipped kitchen! Thank you so much!

 

Susan   Apr 2023
Beautiful house with stunning view
We really enjoyed our week at 3 Longbeach. The house is so light and spacious and the views are amazing. The location is perfect, close enough to the beach but also lovely and quiet. If we could add any recommendation it would be wine glasses! We felt like students drinking wine out of a tumbler! There was also no sugar for our cup of tea. But otherwise it was fantastic and we would love to come again one day.
Tacey Attwell   Mar 2023
Perfect in every way!
Long Beach House is light, airy and beautifully decorated. Fixtures and fittings are all high quality, especially in the 3 bathrooms. The kitchen has excellent appliances & is very well equipped. All bedrooms are very comfortable , the bedding & towels provided also high quality. Views from the house over the sweeping bay of Woolacombe & beyond, are mesmerising . Outside the terrace offers comfortable seating at the dining table, under the parasol or relaxation on sun loungers. A large BBQ and fire fit complete the outdoor experience, if required ! I thoroughly recommend a stay at Long Beach House, where the standards of housekeeping, are faultless & every attention had been paid to ensuring guests have a wonderful holiday!
Sue Jones   Mar 2023
The views are amazing and we had a great time!

We had a lovely stay at No3 Longbeach House. The house is beautiful with lovely views. We had yummy food at the Jube and good drinks at the Electric bar.

We had a very yummy roast at The Rock in Georgeham. It was really, really good.

The views are amazing and we had a great time!

Matt   Jan 2023
Superb accommodation, fantastic views

We were amazed upon arrival looking out of the lounge and seeing the view of the coastline and the sea ! The house is absolutely gorgeous, a real home from home . It has everything you need to have a fabulous break . The two bedrooms at the back have a fantastic view of the sea and have very comfortable beds with lovely crisp bed linen . The house has a very calm and relaxing atmosphere. We are looking forward to our next break !

Incredible

Wow, where do I begin! My partner and I stayed from the 28th October - 4th of November and it was everything we needed. Knowing that the weather was going to be hit and miss this time of year, we were sceptical about how the holiday was going to be, well we needn't be! The downstairs of the lodge comprises of a utility room with washing & tumble drying facilities, a downstairs toilet, and an open plan lounge which filters into the kitchen dining area. You can really tell that whoever owns this property takes real pride in their home, with everything kept to a 5* standard. The kitchen is kitted out with excellent equipment - smeg fridge freezer, Nespresso coffee machine, dishwasher, non stick pots and pans and built in oven/microwave. The lounge has 2 large sofas, an arm chair with 'poof' and a fire to keep you cosy on those cold autumnal nights! The lounge is also extremely bright and vibrant, when the sun beams through the patio doors and it offers fantastic sea views. Upstairs you're welcomed with 3 large double bedrooms, 2 of which are en-suite with sea views and then a family bathroom. The beds were really comfy, with crisp white bed linen. The lodge is operated by hive for the heating and also has a great sound system! It really was a magical stay and I can't wait to go back again! Thanks, George

BEAUTIFUL STAY!!!

We stayed at the Longbeach House a few weeks ago and what a fantastic trip it was! When we arrived, we were greeted with a beautifully turned out, modern beach house. The interior was pristine clean with crisp white bed linen and sparkling bathrooms/kitchen. The kitchen was excellently equipped with everything you could need during your stay including some coffee pods, jams and biscuits as an added touch. The lounge is the perfect level of roomy and cosy with the most spectacular views looking over the Woolacombe beach and Devonshire countryside. Each bedroom is spacious with the two rooms at the back also having fantastic views over the coast. There is plenty of room to get ready in each room with dressing tables, mirrors and hairdryers. The master bedroom has good wardrobe and draw space with a king size bed. To the back of the property there is a large patio with tables, chairs and sun loungers. This is an excellent space which again looks out over the amazing scenery. There is a BBQ with all the bits and bobs you need for alfresco dining. The garden has a large lawn perfect for children and dogs to play in safely as this is all very secure, even for small dogs. To the front of the house there is space for 2 cars and off road car parking. The property is located at the top of Woolacombe making this a very quiet property to stay in as it is not situated on a main road, however you are only a stones throw away from the hustle and bustle of the beach and town. Long beach house is set 5 mins walk away from Woolacombe beach and town making everything very accessible without having to use a car for the essentials. The town has a great selection of bars, restaurants, cafes, shops and a lovely little cinema situated in the Woolacombe bay hotel. The location is great to access walks to Croyde, Georgeham and Ilfracombe. Overall we could not have asked for more during our stay at the Longbeach house, it really is the perfect spot for couples or families and not forgetting our fury friends.

Leonie   Nov 2022
Superb property ,beautifully furnished and excellent views

This property is located in a quiet position,a short distance up the moderately steep hill out of Woolacombe thus,luggage for the beach requires relay transport but,'drop off' is not a problem.Dedicated parking accommodates two vehicles with an electric charging point.This is a very high quality house with every convenience ,including latest internet smart TV,sound system ,etc and ,a wonderful rear garden with views along Woolacombe beach towards Putsbrough.We would book again.

John & Kate Chamberlain   Aug 2022
We hope to be back again soon!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and this house made our holiday 10/10! Views were beautiful and the house was super clean and comfortable. Definitely recommend Croyde and The Beach House reastuarant. Also the slushie shop in the main car park.

Amazing property and views

We loved our sunny half term week in Woolacombe. The property, the location and the views were all perfect and we really hope we can visit again in the future.

Laura   Jun 2022
Simply fabulous!

Simply fabulous!! All of it...but especially the very lovely Long Beach House with its stunning views and warm, welcoming atmosphere.

We have visited some truly amazing places (especially Lynmouth & Appledore - we recommend the Royal George by the way)

We have had the most fantastic week and have eaten, drunk and slept to full capacity! We are even going home with a bit of a tan and feel fully rested and rejuvenated. Very envious of the next guests.

 

Thank you to all involved with Long Beach House for a wonderful stay.

Newell family   May 2022
Long Beach House is simply amazing!

Long beach house is simply amazing! The views of the cliffs and and beach are mesmerising and the outdoor terrace, a perfect place to sit - whether around the table or on a sunlounger. Inside the house is beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and has everything anyone could wish for! Simply excellent!!

Sue   May 2022
Fantastic time here...

We have had a fanatastic time her at Long Beach House, the views, the house and amenities did not disappoint. The outdoor space was such an added bonus for us with two little girls. Location is great too. We can't wait to return!

Lamb Family   May 2022
Thanks for a lovely stay1

Our stay was shorter than planned but once we arrived we were mesmerised by the amazing views from this lovely house. Well equipped with every small detail though of, we came for the Feb halft-term hols and also to gain some healing after chemo for my Mum. The sound of the ocean despite our arrival after 3 storms was certainly healing. We will be back. 

 

We visited clovelly whilst here and we would certainly recommend the drive there. Post office and shops 2 minutes away, so very convenient a location. Will certainly recommend this house!

 

Thanks for a lovely stay!

Sebastian   Feb 2022
High quality holiday home with stunning views

Fabulous accommodation in the heart of Woolacombe. Excellent location and stunning views make this the perfect retreat for a family holiday. Ample space in a high quality residence. Looking forward to a return visits with family and friends.

Mandy Davies   Nov 2021
Perfect house in a perfect setting.

A very modern, light and airy house, equipped with everything you need for a perfect holiday. It's just a pity one cannot control the weather. We found the rooms spacious, the beds were the most comfortable beds that we have slept in, in a holiday let. Most of the rooms have fantastic sea views and the sun (when out!!!) is on the terrace most of the day. It is only a short walk to the beach and whilst the house is on a hill, it is an easy hill to walk up. We enjoyed the house so much, we ended up booking a week next year.

Tim Cook   Aug 2021
Everything you need for a great holiday

This property had everything we needed for a great holiday in Woolacoombe, a real home from home. The views from the property made it extra special. Can't wait to come back.

Irene C   Aug 2021
Amazing place to stay!

My fiancé and I stayed here from 11 June for 1 week with my sister, brother-in-law and 2.5 year old niece. The house is lovely and so we'll equipped. It has everything you need for a stay and the views over Woolacombe are just incredible. We very much enjoyed BBQs outside and watching the sunset. The beach is only 5 mins walk and there is so much to do locally for all the family, whatever their age. We will definitely be staying here again - we didn't actually want to leave!

Kelly   Aug 2021
Fantastic stay

Wonderful house, fantastic views, amazing holiday! On our arrival the house was spotless and we immediately felt at home. Everything was perfect. Lovely 5 minute walk to the beautiful beach and the shops/restaurants and we had some great days out. We would love to come back again.

Louise Jessop   Jun 2021
Brilliant holiday and beautiful house

We have visited long beach house on a number of occasions and have always been happy staying there. We are due to stay again in August this year. Many thanks to housekeeping who were also extremely helpful during our switchover week. Thank you

Moira Shaw   Jun 2021
Beautiful house beautiful views

We have stayed here three times now and thoroughly enjoyed every moment from start to finish .... the house is stunningly furnished, fully equipped and enjoys incredible views over Woolacombe Bay towards Lundy island. The beach is 5 minutes away and you can walk to adjoining Putsborough for a pasty and cup of tea on a 5k round trip... the fire pit and sunsets on the terrace create a dream evening every night. Thoroughly recommended if you can get in!!.. book early !!!!

Graham   May 2021
Simply wonderful

If you are looking for the WOW factor you will find it here. Spacious, beautifully decorated and furnished and incredibly sea views. Thank you for such a wonderful and memorable stay

Angela Farrar   May 2021
Fabulous house in wonderful spot!

Second holiday here. The house is lovely and well equipped in every way. We have had a very relaxing and cosy/comfy stay. Days on the beach and walks on the coastal path in lovely weather. We will be back again later this year! Excellent service from Ocean Cottages, as ever. Thank you.

Sue Pf   May 2021
Beautiful house with amazing view!

I love this house. It is extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean. All the surroundings and furniture are very comfortable and the view is stunning from the kitchen, lounge and double bedrooms. We have had a couple of brilliant family holidays here and will definitely come back.

Miranda Clarke   May 2021
The house is our home away from Home!

Another fabulous but woefully short stay at this wonderful spot! We come every year and it never fails to live well beyond our expectations.

The house is our home away from home; clean, spacious, warm and always welcoming. We love all the rooms and it is always well kepy. Always new bits and pecies added each stay to make it a wonderfully comforatable and relaxing break. 

There is a new electric charging point, outdoor furniture and local paintingof the fantastic beach. I defy you not to be moved when you stand on the patio and look out and listen...its a glorious spot! Just love it here!

The Farrows   Oct 2020
Lovely house and location

The house has the Wow factor. The views of the beach and sea are wonderful. It is well equipped and very comfortable. We will be back again soon.

Susan   Oct 2020
Beautiful, well appointed home with excellent facilities for 6 and stunning views of the beach and coastline beyond

Luxury home with excellent facilities for a family of up to 6. Views from the south facing terrace are superb and great area to unwind and watch the sunset towards Lundy Island. Excellent base for the beach and catching waves/body boarding first or last thing and then exploring the local area on the network of footpaths around Woolacombe, Mortehoe, Lee or further afield towards Ilfracombe, Heddon's Mouth and Woody Bay. Cannot wait to return

Pennington   Oct 2020
Fantastic sea view

Beautiful house with all the amenities that you need for a comfortable holiday with fantastic views over looking the sea & woolacombe bay

Brett mason   Sep 2020
Lovely house inside and out the back.

We had an amazing week, full of lovely memories. Beautiful house with everything you could want (except a shaving point for my toothbrush ). Would definitely love to come back again x

Jacqui Kershaw   Aug 2020
Great house in perfect location

We had a brilliant week staying here. Decor is fresh and crisp and the kitchen is very well equipped. It was very clean and tidy on arrival. The garden has an epic view too. Our only suggestion is for there to be a better quality table and chairs outside so you could enjoy the view in comfort. There's currently only a round pub bench-style table whereas the adjoining property has a lovely table and chairs.

S Parker   Jul 2020
Fantastic location with panoramic views.

It was absolutely lovely to be able to look out over the beach and sea from the picture windows and patio, with views across to Lundy Island as well as to Baggy Point and Hartland. Hearing the lapping sea was magical. Great location for exploring the area and for coastal and country walks.

Maggie   Sep 2019
We all had a wonderful holiday fantastic accommodation and location. Would definitely return.

A wonderful family holiday

We have spent a lovely week here. Beautiful house, magnificent views over the bay, wonderful beach.  Lots of nice places to eat.

A shame the weather wasn't too good but we made the most of it and the rain didn't bother us too much.  A wonderful family holiday, hope to be back one day.

  Jun 2019
Awesome time

Had an awesome time. Incredible walks and managed to catch a few waves. The house is clean and well equipped.

Rob   Apr 2019
Lovely House

Lovely house - great views! Would recommend.  Croyde worht a visit too, toddler loved it there on the beach.  Curry on Barricane Beach was fab.  Funder Island great for little one and very handy because you can use tokens over the week. A wonderful holiday for the Webb family

the Webbs   Mar 2019
such a beautiful house

We have all really enjoyed our stay at 3 Long Beach, such a beautiful house and amazing views.  We really appreciated the cake and tea/coffee/milk on arrival.  Thank you very much.  We can recommend the Bar Electric in Woolacombe and the Chichester Arms in Mortehoe for Sunday roast.  We enjoyed visiting Croyde, Combe Martin and the cliff railway between Lynton and Lynmouth is a must.  Just a shame the weather wasn't brilliant, but will definitely be recommending this house.  Thank you for a lovely holiday!

Shally Family   Mar 2019
so wonderful

It has been so wonderful to return to the Long Beach House we first visited nearly 3 years ago, our children now 5 and 3 years!  the house just as it was, the house exceptionally clean as usual and well equipped still.  the views are breathtakingly mesmerizing! A great lookout point and a lovely garden to spend an early summers evening! We have been blessed with the weather, having only 2 overcast days out of 10. but it was still very warm. We have a tan that could rival a week in Majorca!  We mainly spent out time on the beach here in Woolacombe but did visit Ilfracombe, Watermouth Castle and the Wildlife and Dinosaur Park - a big hit with out son!  We also visited Saunton Beach, to see the D-Day parade which was fantastic fun and educational too.  As before, a wonderful stay in a beautiful house, we will miss it, though we will return again soon!

The Capps   Mar 2019
absolutely amazing

The three nights that we've spent here have been absolutely amazing. the sights, the works, the memories made out on the beach only to come back to a stunning house and such a beautifully decorated house too!  The trek down to Baggy Point really puts things into perspective as you're just taken away by the sound of the crashing waves and the sights.  This trip has honestly been a breath of fresh air, thank you so much for your hospitality!

House with wow factor

A beautiful house with fabulous views and easy access to all the facilities of Woolacombe, to beach and footpaths. Very clean and quite well-equipped. Perfect for family of grandparents (if quite mobile), parents and teenagers. 2 or 3 showers are the overhead type, not ideal for everybody. Property managers very helpful in every way. Would definitely stay again.

Great House!

Great house and location, literally 5 minutes from the beach. Had everything that you'd require for self catering, clean and comfortable. Only criticism is the light weight curtains, need to be thicker to stop the sun shinning in at 4am! As a family we have been holidaying at Woolacombe for years and would definitely use Ocean Cottages and Long Beach house again.

Lovely clean spacious and luxurious house with sea views!
Beautiful modern clean and bright airy property with lovely sea views and also across to the hills. Both main double rooms had sea views and en-suites which is great for 2 couples both wanting the 'best' rooms! Well equipped kitchen enough if you want to stay in and eat. The lovely cake on arrival was a welcome special treat, and milk in the fridge for a cuppa with it was appreciated. Easy to walk into the village and to the beach. Uphill on the way back gives added exercise but might not be as appreciated by those less able bodied! Overall a fantastic stay and would definitely consider returning. Ocean cottages were very professional to book with. Will visit again!

“Smiths stay in woolacombe”
Having visited woolacombe as a family on many occasions, can't fault it as a beautiful holiday destination. The house was very adequate for our 6 family members, 4 adults 2 children. The views from the house where spectacular hence the price. However - although the it's location is near to the beach its not possible to walk to the beach if loaded up with all the things you need for a day on the beach, getting down wouldn't be a problem! Getting back up another matter! This is not explained in the description of the house!! Loved our stay, we were lucky with the weather so spent most of our time on the beach. The house was lovely although shower cubicles were a tight fit!! Not enough crockery,cutelry provided, & garden was a slope so no place for children to play!! Think the description of the house on website needs to be more informative, for the price we paid dont think it was it lived up to its expectations, although the house is exactly as shown on photos

Management comment
Thank you for your feedback, we will look into the crockery situation. I am sorry you were not aware that Woolacombe is hilly. This is what gives you the spectacular views. We always recommend Croyde for people if they want flat, but unfortunately there are very few properties which enjoy views in Croyde. We hope we can welcome you back to Ocean Cottages in the future, and we are always happy to chat with you on the phone about any property queries.
Nice light and airy lounge and kitchen
This was the first time we'd been to Woolacombe, and Long Beach House was a brilliant place to stay. We were a group of 6 travelling with an 11 month old, and the property was brilliant. The place has been redeveloped since Google Maps was last updated, so it doesn't show on street view, but the owners gave great directions, and it was very easy to find. Parking for two cars, and sleeps 6 people with two ensuite bathrooms and a larger bathroom. Nice light and airy lounge and kitchen with all facilities provided. The only thing to watch out for is a very steep garden, but we spent all our time at the beach which is a 10 minute walk down the hill. We had a little trouble with the gas hob initially, but soon worked out that you had to have to keep the gas pressed down while it lights and for a little while afterwards to keep the flame going. Some nice extra touches for our visit were the welcome pack (including a nice bottle of wine) Really enjoyed our stay and very happy to recommend this to others

mesmerizing view of the countryside in one direction, sea in the other.
We had a lovely week in Woolacombe. My favourite thing about the house was the mesmerizing view of the countryside in one direction and the sea in the other. Inside it felt very much like a hotel with luxurious beds and bathrooms and everything you could need (including DVD player and games which were useful during the gales). The garden has fantastic views with a wooden table and benches as well as two sun loungers to relax on. The beach and village are a shortish walk down a steep hill so no need to drive unless you don't have enough energy for the return climb. My only suggestion would be darker blinds to keep out the morning sunshine.

This house is worth every penny. If for the views alone!
This house is worth every penny. If for the views alone! We visited mid June for 9 nights, as a group of 4 adults and 2 children (parents, grandparents, a child aged 2 1/2 and a newborn aged 9 weeks). We had booked for 7 nights but were able to pay extra and arrive 2 days earlier due to a cancellation. Immediately upon arriving at Long Beach House we were thrilled to see that it was EXACTLY as described and the pictures EXACTLY how the house is. The house was cleaned to an amazing standard (better than some big hotels we've stayed in!) and we were greeted by a lovely welcome basket. The view from the back garden is simply breath taking and is mesmerizing to watch, we found ourselves just sitting and staring (and it was nice to look at the sea at 4am during a night feed!) on a good day you can see Lundy Island but you can also watch the microlights and various paragliders jumping off the hill opposite. The house has pretty much everything you can think of - travel cot, hairdryer, washer, dryer, iron, ironing board, airer, cd player, dvd player,mop, bucket, hoover, some board games and cards. There are also two wind breakers you can use which we found very handy indeed. The kitchen has everything you could of - and eating breakfast with the view of the beach is lovely. The beds are amazingly comfy, and the bedrooms are decorated nicely. The bathrooms are finished to a high standard - the rain showers are incredible! (if you don't like to get your hair wet in the shower I suggest you bring a shower cap!!) The bedrooms only have blinds so if you are a light sleeper I recommend you take an eye mask. The house is situated 5 mins walk from the beach, pubs and shops. It is up quite a steep hill, there are 3 roads up to the house, we found walking down the nearest (but steepest) hill the best, it was a bit tiring in the heat with a baby pram and a pushchair but literally took a minute. Though its not the best walk for those who are elderly or who have trouble walking. The only things I would suggest for the house are perhaps a few dvds for a rainy day (eg a kids film, a family movie etc) and perhaps a few more coat hangers. Other than that we had a suberb holiday and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Really wonderful house. The service from Ocean Cottages who we booked through was excellent and cannot be faulted. The emails they sent were very clear and concise, and the agents on the phone were so polite and friendly. In addition, our security deposit was returned within 5 days. We hope to return again soon and have already recommended to friends and family.

Long days walking and exploring and surfing and totally relaxing.
My second time here as an escape for a long weekend – this has to be the ultimate. I can’t begin to imagine how gorgeous it is in the Summer. Long days walking and exploring and surfing and totally relaxing. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. We will be back in a month or so.

The views to the sea, beach and coastline are simply gorgeous
We loved this modern, beautifully appointed property. The views to the rear of the sea, beach and coastline are simply gorgeous. We loved the comfortable beds and the option of clean laundry after a week. The kitchen and bathrooms are great, although a few new-build snagging issues need attending to (shower door sticking, master bedroom en suite fan not working and door not closing). The patio and garden are a bonus - a washing line and table umbrella would be a good addition in the future. My kids loved the mezzanine floor. The town and the fabulous beach are a few minutes walk away, although it is uphill on the way back.The housekeeper was very helpful and prompt in reply.

The house is amazing and in a fantastic location
From the first enquiry to leaving this apartment the service we had was excellent. You have thought of everything. The house is amazing and in a fantastic location and the welcome gifts were a lovely touch. All three generations in our family had a lovely time here. We were all catered for and we didn’t want to leave. Many thanks.

A fantastic and well equipped house
A fantastic and well equipped house that was perfect for our family holiday with two young children and the grandparents. We particularly liked the views from the lounge and this made the couple of rainy days we had much more pleasant. The house is up a steep hill but it isn't a long walk from the beach and it was perfectly manageable with our 2 year old and new born. We wouldn't hesitate to book this property again.

Absolutely amazing house! The views are wonderful
Absolutely amazing house! The views are wonderful, the location is great, we walked into and back from Woolacombe very easily with 2 children, it is a steep hill so anyone with walking difficulties could struggle. There is everything you could ask for, the house was spotlessly clean and everything was to a high standard, would go back tomorrow.

Probably the best holiday home we have stayed in.
Absolutely beautiful home. Probably the best holiday home we have stayed in. Wonderful touch of the Easter treats left around the house. Our girls were delighted to be looking for them whilst we unpacked. The location was fantastic and the views stunning. Having never been to Woolacombe before we will definitely return and recommend this property.
