2 Bed in Bideford (oc-willi)
For a memorable getaway, stay at this idyllic clifftop cottage, nestled between Clovelly and Westward Ho! on the South West Coast Path. With its stunning sea views from Baggy to Hartland Point, the cottage is the perfect retreat for a romantic couple or a small group of friends. Look forward to a spacious open-plan layout, a light and airy atmosphere, and lots of cosy touches throughout.
Unwind in the lounge area with a warming wood burner and a window seat to take in the view. The separate dining room has a few steps down to the kitchen, which is separated by a glass partition. A stable door leads out to the garden, which features a patio and picnic bench, perfect for al fresco dining with a BBQ. Make your way up the steep cottage-style staircase to the attractive king-size bedroom where you can drift off to sleep to the sound of a nearby waterfall tumbling down to the sea. The compact double room also offers gorgeous sea views and shares the family bathroom. Outside, there is a low wall separating the front lawn from a babbling stream.
From the cottage, you can take a stroll along the beach (300 metres) and explore the abandoned lime kilns, rusty winches and the rocky spit said to be built by the devil. Venture into Clovelly and discover its cobbled streets and fishermen’s cottages (5 miles) or take a fishing trip from the harbour. For those with a passion for surfing, Westward Ho! (9 miles) and its beautiful stretch of golden sand awaits. Alternatively, you can take a boat trip to the wild and beautiful Lundy Island, located just off the coast of Bideford (9 miles). Here you may be lucky enough to spot seals, dolphins and puffins.Three miles from Buck Mills in the village of Woolsery there is a unique collective comprising:
The Farmers Arms – a new take on the traditional pub
J. Andrew - a delightful Shop & Post Office
Woolsery Fish & Chips – always fresh and made on site……… plus much more.

Williams Cottage really does live up to the photos in the listing but I don't think anything can do justice to the breathtaking views which were totally captivating. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean but extremely homely and cosy - a great mix of modern and traditional with a quirky layout that worked really well. We were very lucky with the weather but the evenings were cool so the log burner was a great asset. The cottage was well heated and even when the wind was gusty we were warm and toasty. Positioned in a very quiet spot a few steps from the coastal path and a very short walk to a lovely cove, the location is a dream for walkers and dogs alike. Bucks Mills was also well located for exploring North Devon and parts of Cornwall with lots to see and do within a short drive. All in all I'd heartily recommend this property.
