Just a little drive from Woolacombe is the enchanting Ivycott sitting in its own grounds of approximately 2 acres. Raised up from the roadside, it enjoys far reaching views over farmland and neighbouring properties in the small hamlet.

The huge driveway can accommodate parking for plenty of cars and once inside this 3 bedroom house there are several rooms for extended families to spread out. There are two entrance gates making the gardens and grounds more dog secure. On entering through the front door, on the left is the neat, compact sitting room with ample sofas to seat 6 people and TV (not a Smart TV), books and games are available. The wood burner makes this room a snug place to spend evenings with the family.

There is a dining room with table to seat at least 6-8 and off it is a cute ‘'snug'' currently set up as a chill out room or playroom with a downstairs cloakroom with washing machine & tumble dryer. Next to the dining room is a bright kitchen with modern off white units, full size dishwasher, oven, hob, microwave and food storage. It is fully equipped to cater for 6 people.
A lovely picture window looks out over the tiered garden and there is a useful porch at the back door for boots/shoes. There is a kitchen table and a utility area housing the boiler and American style fridge freezer. There is a washing machine and tumble dryer as mentioned before housed in the cloakroom.

Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms, master with super-king bed, wardrobes, bedside cupboard, chest of drawers and mirror. There is a lovely en-suite with shower, sink and WC. Next is a king-size room and then a twin room with zip n link beds (please indicate your preference to super-king or 2 x singles on the booking form) with sink. There is a very sunny pleasant family bathroom with a separate shower.

Outside is the amazing garden on 3 sides, tiered lawns, beds, raised deck, barbecue patio & BBQ and views over farmland. The owners have installed two new gates on the driveway and more fencing to make this large garden very dog secure (nothing is ever 100% so if you have an escapee dog then please be aware). The beautiful new summerhouse commands lovely views from inside or on the terrace at the front, great for sundowners after a day exploring the area or on the beach.

Another great feature of this property is the games room in the garage. There is a darts board, table tennis, football table and outside a basketball hoop above the garage door.

Ivycott represents a wonderful family friendly holiday home within a short drive from the beaches of Woolacombe or Ilfracombe, Croyde and surrounds. It is positioned perfectly away from the madding crowds yet within easy access of the best of North Devon.

A £20 per dog fee is payable at balance stage. Saturday changeover.

    Ivycott had everything we needed and more!! Beautiful home in a great location. Lovely big secure garden which our dog loved . Lovely walk down to Woolacombe from the property but as owners state it’s not for the faint hearted, especially walking back but we throughly enjoyed it! We will definitely be returning.

    Wonderful property. Well presented. Lots of things provided for children/teens (eg table football, table tennis, darts) to do which is good for rainy days. The beds are particularly comfy. It really is a home from home. The garden is wonderful and there is a big drive for ample parking. We loved it.I would say that the photos don't do it justice - it is even nicer in person.

    It was lovely to return again to Ivycott. A wonderfully homely and spacious property with a beautiful garden. Spotlessly clean on arrival. The kitchen is well equipped and the bedrooms comfortable. Plenty of dining space and a cosy sitting room. Location perfect for walkers - and a short drive into Woolacombe for surfers. Excellent facilities for washing off/ drying/storing muddy boots/wetsuits/surfboards etc. We will definitely be back!

    This is our third stay at Ivycott and it was so good to return - we felt at home the minute we unlocked the front door. It is a lovely spacious property with comfortable bedrooms and great facilities- everything one needs for a relaxing break. Location is perfect. We can't wait to stay again.
