We had a wonderful stay at The Salt House and couldn’t have asked for a better place to relax and unwind. The property was beautifully presented, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The property was surprisingly bigger than we expected too! It is located opposite a pub however we were pleasantly surprised by how quiet it was! If we ever visited Ilfracombe again we would stay here!

We had a wonderful short stay at The Salt House.The property is a great size with 3 bedroom and entrance area is SO useful to leave damp clothes, boots and pushchairs. Large lounge and kitchen. Very well equipped. The en‐suite bathroom to the main bedroom has a shower and sink only, no toilet so need to use main bathroom. Location is amazing ‐ right in the midst of shops, bars, restaurants and 1 min walk to the harbour. Will definitely stay here again when visiting Ilfracombe.

Great house and location

The Salt House is very well located to enjoy the local amenities with a public car park within yards of the property. The house is very well equipped, clean and very comfortable and large enough to cater for an extended family, a home from home. There are a variety of eating places in the immediate area. Ilfracombe is well situated for walks along the South West coastal path and the Two Tunnels beaches are well worth a visit.
