We enjoyed our two weeks holiday in this cottage, hope to return in the near future. Just one point the lawns really needed cutting but they were never done all the time we were there.

We really enjoyed our stay in Westside Cottage. It was sparkling clean and tidy on our arrival, the kitchen/dining area is bigger than shown in photos, the beds are very comfortable and the garden is perfect for relaxing after surfing. Because of its location is was very easy to walk to the beach (10 min) and to the village (5 minutes). We highly recommend Westside Cottage for holidays (Summer or Winter time as we have seen radiators in all its rooms). We hope to come back soon!

We had a lovely stay at Westside, great property with everything we needed. Recommend The Manor House Inn for a family meal, great enclosed play area at the back and good variety on the food menu for both young and old. Curtains in the bunk bed room were very thin and didn't block out much light at all, recommend bringing a black out blind if you're staying in the summer months

We loved our stay at Westside Cottage. So much so we added an extra night! It was comfortable and clean and very well equipped. We loved walking through the dunes to the beach. The dog was exhausted at the end of the day which was wonderful. We will definitely be back and really valued the excellent communication with the Ocean Cottages team throughout.

We had a very relaxing week in Westside, just before the Summer school holidays. All mod cons and recently well refurbished - fridge, hob, washing machine & dishwasher all fine for a week stay. Simple and comprehensive instructions for bins etc. Good TV, and some chilled seaside themed art on display. Beds were comfy, and with plenty of bedding & towels provided. All the rooms are reasonable sized, and the whole place is very light & airy. Lovely garden, secluded and well planted - ideal for star gazing or relaxing with a drink after walks / surfing. There are lots of flowers and mature shrubs / trees, so good mix of sun & shade. It's equidistant from the village centre and the beach... just right to either walk or pop in the car, if raining. Only (minor) niggles: en suite shower door difficult to open / close without derailing BBQ legs were loose / rusted, and ash pan missing the garden clothes dryer had to be tethered to stop it collapsing seemed to have less crockery and glassware than other similar holiday houses we stay in

We always try to spend some time in Croyde, and never rented another property! We love Westside Cottage. It is the perfect size for us. Clean and cute with everything we need. Super easy to walk to the beach, to the surf academy or to the village. With beautiful and well kept flowers. We will be back!

Of all the cottages we have stayed in Croyde (big & small) this cottage was the most comfortable (home from home) the little touches of Milk, Tea etc. were very welcoming after a long journey. This cottage was very clean and well stocked (furniture & kitchen equipment) would recommend to anyone! Thank you.

We loved the location and design of the bungalow.

Especially the kitchen/dining area. A true homely feel too which allowed us to really relax. The wonderful walk to the beach and into the village brough us back in touch with nature. So much natural wildlife. Our little border Terrier settled in here too, loving the garden and we felt safe leaving him for a few hours in the daytime. 

Overall fab week, and we had glorious weather to top it all off.

 

We have been in Westside a couple of times already and every time we had fantastic holidays. The cottage is very clean and comfortable. It is perfectly located for walking to the beach and also for a drink/icecream in the evening. Kids were able to walk by themselves to and from the surfing lessons. Croyde is a beautiful small town. We will be visiting again coming summer!

Westside Cottage in Croyde has been our perfect family base for a holiday for many years. Well appointed and clean. Within walking distance of the beach and ice creams!

A spacious and comfortable cottage that exactly suited the needs of a 3 generation family, we had a wonderful holiday .

Lovely stay in relaxing environment. Great location near beach.

Great location. Short walk to the beach and Croyde village. Lots of places to eat and the sun was shining all week.

Westside cottage is perfectly situated to explore the Croyde area, and beyond. Being an easy walk from the the beach, it was ideal for our family holiday. The accommodation is comfortable, light and airy and, most importantly, beautifully clean. The pretty, enclosed rear garden was also great for BBQ's and very secure for our little dog. I would highly recommend this property.

We last visited Westside in 2014 and nothing much has changed! Weather was fantastic all week, with wall to wall sunshine and 17 degrees.

The Rock Inn marginally ahead of the Kings Arms at the moment and Golden Palace chinese in braunton was very good. First holiday for us in 18 years outside of the school holidays and it was bliss!

Lovely sunny stay through the British heatwave in this cottage. Everything you could need in this neat, clean cottage. Super dining areas inside and out. Great location and mostly peaceful. Some nights we could even hear the sea in the garden!

This is our third time to Westside. Its perfect! Lots of bodyboarding, curry on Barricane beach was a treat, pizzas from the Hub were delicious.

We hired bikes from Wadebridge and rode the camel trail. The baggy point walk is beautiful even in the rain!

Well we certainly got lucky with the weather! Fabulous week her,e rarely using the car and mostly on the beach. Thank you for the loan of the body boards. This house has been a great base with everything we have needed. A super little garden for alfresco meals and everything we needed inside.

We hope to return!

 

This is our second visit to this lovely bungalow. Once again, we have enjoyed it. Thank you 

We have all had a wonderful holiday here. Weather has been wonderful too.

It's a friendly family house! We have eaten out at the beach side grill at Saunton Sands - the food was amazing, also at Captains Table in Woolacombe (highly recommended) and Rock Inn, Georgeham. You will need to book.

If you have young children like we had, Watermouth Castle was a great day out and also Funder Island in Woolacombe. House was spotless when we get here. Have felt safe during these stressful COVID times. 

Lovely cottage in a perfect spot!

Loved walking down to Croyde beach and play-ground. Great beaches nearby as well. Saunton Sands, Woolacombe etc. Enjoyed meals at the Blue Groove, Kings Arms and Rock Inn. A great week!

 

After a long lock down it was so nice to come away for a lovely relaxing holiday. Love going to Saunton sands with the dogs and then having a glass of wine on the balcony there afterwards.

House is lovely and clean, we hope to come back again soon

Everything you needed for a sea side break. Comfortable beds and everything well cleaned. Lovely garden too. Thank you. We will be back.

A really good experience with Ocean Cottages. Clear communication throughout and very good Covid safety practices in place. I will use again. Lovely bungalow and great position for beach and Croyde centre

I have stayed in many different places in Croyde over nearly 2 decades. I know the area well and I now come with my children for surfing. This cottage was ideally located - being able to walk to the beach at Croyde and also into the village for the pubs, playground and craft market. The house was bigger than expected with a lovely, large kitchen diner and super little garden. We were also able to bring our dog, which is not possible in many rentals.

We really enjoyed our stay in Westide Cottage. it was sparkling clean and tidy on our arrival, the kitchen/dining area is bigger than shown in photos, the beds are very comofrtable and the garden is perfect for relaxing after surfing. Because of its location it was very easy to walk to the beach (10min) and to the village (5mins). We highly recommend Westside Cottage for holidays (summer or winter as we have seen radiators in all its rooms). We hope to comeback soon.

Comfortable, spotlessly clean, everything you need for a lovely holiday.  Croyde is such a lovely place, had great meals at The Thatch and visited many lovely beaches, Putsorough, saunton, Woolacombe and Croyde. Also visited Lynmouth and Lynton, Barnstaple, Woolacombe Town as well as the small local villages.  There is so much beauty here.  We will be back next year and for years to come.  Thank you for a lovely stay. 

It's very comfy and very close to the beach.  We love how we can sit outside and eat.  This is our second time here and we still love it.  The shed has everything we need.  We also like the little cards that say do not wash (if bed not used) as it's another way to help the earth.  We recommend it to anyone.

PS we loved the chocolate cake.

 

 

Very comfortable bungalow in a great position.  The weather has been fab. Love The Thatch and the Blue Grove.  Croyde is such a happy place to be.  Would recommend Ilfracombe for a day out, traditional harbour/seaside town, good fish and chips and lovely independent shops, and of course the RNLI station. 

This is our third visit to the bungalow and again we have had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The accommodation is always so clean and comfortable and suits our family needs perfectly. Thank you!

We have been coming to Westside for 10 years now. Like home from home. Hopefully back next year!

10 minute walk to the sea, amazing sand and sand dunes. We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful area very much.

We enjoyed being so close to the beach and village. We had some lovely evenings at the beach with our barbecue, game of cricket and the sunset! We’ve been coming to the area for years and this is one of the best bungalows we have stayed in. We will definitely return in the future! Just one small thing, we can use the barbecue as the grill is so rusty. This wasn’t a problem for us as we had our own portable one. Look forward to returning.

Very central location with a short walk to the village centre. Short walk to the pub which was a benefit with the England match on Tuesday. The weather was amazing and our 2 1/2-year-old lab, Carly, Had a great time on her coastal walks and the beach, she became a real water baby! We will definitely be back to stay. Saunton Beach has great accessability for all family - including Nan in a wheelchair. Thank you so much.

It's a very pleasant college, recently refurbished with a lovely open kitchen/seating area which gets lots of natural light and with the double doors, the whole thing feels very open. 
The bedrooms are reasonably sized and there's plenty of space outside for parking. There's also a useful outside tap and hose, which you'll be able to use for washing off salty gear i.e. surfboards and so on.

A superb cottage with lovely attention to detail and extremely comfortable. Very well equipped with everything you need. The cake on arrival was a lovely touch. We love Croyde and the weather has been great. Thank you.

It has been great weather so the beach and the walks were really good and enjoyable. The cottage has been very well-equipped & very tidy. It has been a great place to stay. Our dog also loved the garden and we were glad it was secure. thank you for a great week.

This is the third time we have stayd in this lovely home. We honestly feel like its our home from home and we always look forward to our stay here. Our 'baby' is now running around and is very chatty - she keeps talking about how sad she is to leave. The weather and surf ave been absolutely gorgeous and we cannot wait for our next visit to Croyde.

Sadly we do not have our dog this year but will be getting a puppy when going home. Weather not very good. Hopefully back next year.

We had a wonderful stay at Westside. Very comfortable. Thank You

Very comfortable accommodation. Little extras like milk in fridge and biscuits on arrival, spate body boards / games in shed, were much appreciated. Our kids loved the games, jigsaws and of course body boarding and running in the dunes. Would also recommend the first ice cream shop in Croyde for delicious ice-creams.

First time we stayed here and really enjoyed it. Very comfortable accommodation. Little extras like milk in the fridge and biscuits on arrival, spare body boards/games in the shed were much appreciated. Our kids loved the games, jigsaws and of course body boarding and running in the dunes. Would also recommend the first ice cream shop in Croyde for delicious ice-creams.

Lovely stay at Westside, will hopefully stay here again. Can't beat Ocean Cottages, all properties in the past have been excellent.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday in this clean and comfortable property. The accommodation had everything we needed for our family, even a gorgeous dog friendly garden. It was situated close to all the local amenities, the beach, shops and pubs and had some really stunning walks right on the doorstep - there was never any need to get the car out. A lovely relaxing break, we will definitely be back!

We really enjoyed the beach and the weather was good. Out dog Paddington, loved the stunning walks and we were pleased that he couldn’t escape from the garden! Very safe! We would love to come again. Internet connection was very useful although the TV was a bit unreliable. Our border terrier really enjoyed this holiday! Thank you for a lovely stay. Agent Comments: Thank you for your comments. We are sorry to hear that you experienced issues with the TV. This has since been investigated and we can confirm that the TV is operating effectively. Thank you for your feedback.

Well, we are pleased to be able to buck the trend and say that we've had glorious weather all week which has allowed us to take full advantage of coastal walks, the sunroom/garden, beer/wine and that we are going home with well-earned T-shirt tans! We have enjoyed walks to Saunton Sands and Putsborough/Woolacombe beaches with our pooch. We also walked from Ilfracombe back to Croyde (not for the feint hearted) - 13.5 miles of "undulating" ground but some spectacular sights to behold (and the sore feet are soon forgotten!) As far as eating and drinking are concerned, this week we have frequented: The Rock Inn (Georgeham) - up there with the best Sunday lunch ever. Blue Groove - nice food/vibe Sandleigh Tea Room - delightful crab sandwich The King's Arms (Georgeham) - WONDERFUL (enough said - book if you can) The Thatch - only had nachos which was good but drank in here often and staff are great (burgers looked fab) Hobbs Bistro - the let down of the whole week The Saunton Sands Cafe is also worth a mention for good looking food (we only had ice creams) and service. All-in-all, it has been a wonderful holiday. Thank you for such a well-equipped place to stay. We hope to be back some day x

Our 3rd visit to Westside and it was just as wonderful as the previous 2! Westside is so comfortable and is perfect for the whole family, especially our border terrier who adores your garden . Weather was lovely and ejoyed a day out at Arlingont Court.

We've had a lovely week, fine weather. The house is very comfortable and very handy for the beach. We did all the usual Croyde activities, Beach, Baggy walk, Putsborough and Cascades Ruda. We ventured out to the Rock, Georgeham- very nice would definitely visit again.

Our second visit to Westside, perfect location for the beach and village. We love Croyde so we will be back again next year!

We have been coming to Croyde for the past eleven years and this house is the best we have ever stayed in! Weather and surf were also the best we have had. Thank you for the cakes upon arrival. We hope to return next year!

A modern property, it was very clean & well equipped. It had private parking which is always a bonus. During the glorious week we were there, we made good use of both the kitchen / family room & the very secure garden (no worrying about any "great escapes" by our pooch!) The property is just a short stroll from all of the excellent local amenities that Croyde has to offer. There is also a bus link & access to the SW Coastal Path practically on the doorstep. An ideal base for a fun-packed holiday which we wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We booked last minute for the early May bank holiday. We love Croyde but have only ever been camping before but with two small children we wanted to make life a little easier. The cottage was so relaxing and easy to live in, I could have stayed there forever. We are now trying to work out when we can return!

Westside is a great holiday home in the lovely village of Croyde. The property is very well-maintained and is perfect for dogs, as the garden is spacious and completely enclosed (even our border terrier couldn't find a way out!). As always we spent a lot of time in the beautiful light and airy conservatory. This was our 3rd visit to Westside and I don't think I would stay anywhere else when visiting Croyde

The cottage was a great place to stay - very comfortable and the kitchen/diner a ;lovely place to eat and relax. I want one like this at home! We've had some great walks and our dog really enjoyed his morning walks on the beach. Our third visit to Croyde and i'm sure we will return! The Rock Inn at Georgeham is very good for food! Thanks very much.

We have been to Croyde Bay before at different cottages but Westside Cottage is very cosy and the kitchen is rather nice, like being at home. Too cold to sit in the garden. Easy access to everthing and we like the quietness where it is. Plenty of space to move around. Thank you for the chocolate biscuits!

This is our second visit to this house, feels like home as soon as we get here. It was fully booked last year and we had to stay somewhere else which wasn't a patch on this place. We have a disabled dog who can only walk on carpets, can't walk on laminated floors, so apart from the kitchen this house is perfect for him. He loves the garden too. And a plus this year was the weather, it was fantastic everyday. We have been on the beach with him in his walker. Food fab at The Thatch and Blue Groove.

We love Croyde and Westside Cottage has been a wonderful holiday house for us. Spacious, clean & comfortable. The kitchen/dining room area has been fantastic; scene of the great jigsaw build! Who knew "The Dog Show" would be so fiendishly difficult? The garden has been great to relax in too - it is quiet & secluded & really beautiful - thank you to the gardener. A great week - Woolacombe, Arlington Court, The Thatch, Blue Groove, ice-cream & pasties ..... we'll be back!

Had such a great week. I'm so relaxed I don;t even know what day/year it is! Croyde is lovely - great pasties and ice cream everytime. Good job we have to walk uphill to burn off the calories consumed! Drove out to Watersmeet which is stunning and explored some ancient pathways/bridleways. Also went to Westward Ho! for a bit of seaside fun. Very blowy on the beach - great for kite flying but not for having a picnic. However trays of chips in the car looking at the views was excellent fun! Arlington is wonderful - great coffe and cake after another walk into the forest. Overall a great week and we already know we want to come back. Thank you for a lovely house and garden!

Very impressed with Westside Cottage. Well equipped, homely, bright, modern and well kept. We all had a very enjoyable week in Croyde and, being regular visitors, we are likely to return and will definitely stay here again, as we liked it so much! Many thanks.

We've had a lovely holiday. Westside is very comfortable holiday house, with everything that you need. It is easy to get to the beach and we dont have to cross any busy roads! I would love to come back to Wetside.

Very well presented. Really enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend, hope to come again.

We more or less lived in the Breakfast room during the day, spacious and bright. Jake particularly liked his early morning walks on Croyde beach while he was allowed (woof)!Just as remembered

Family party at the weekend, then just the 2 of us for the rest of the week. Even managed to get a slight sun tan!

Westside Cottage exceeded our expectations, providing us with everything that we needed for a comfortable, relaxing week. A fantastic location - walking our border collie to the beach every morning was a real treat! We've already booked our next visit for next spring!

We have had a fabulous week at Westside Cottage, lovely and spacious accommodation. Lots of time spent at the beach, kids thoroughly enjoyed it. Ferret racing at the village hall was tops!
