Leave ReviewElsley
By The Reeves family on 20-Aug-2024Margot age 8 3/4. I loved it so much I didn;t want to leave. I loved staying with my family and walking down to the beach. We stayed at Elsley for the duration of our stay in North Devon. The bungalow is the perfect base for a family holiday. The short walk down the hill to the village and beach is ideal, meaning we got to see the sunset over the bay nearly every day which was a real treat. The space here is open and cosy. As soon as you arrive it feels ike a home away from home. We are so grateful to Jackie and David for letting us stay here and would recommend Elsley to everyone. We'll definitely be coming back to stay! Thank your for giving us a base for our perfect family get away.

By Mick & Carol on 21-Jun-2025Elsley is a well equipped bungalow situated in a good quiet position with easy access to local beaches and eateries. It is also a good base location for touring the North Devon area and beyond. The garden is beautiful and relaxing.

By Coulter & Cockerill Family on 03-Aug-2024Thank you so much for having us. We all have enjoyed the lovely week down at the beach, walking up to the baker, taking a quick 20 minutes down to Woolacombe Beach and so much more. The house is also amazing. The big garden, the coziness of the bedrooms and living room. Its been an amazing time. Thank you for having us (11 year old Bea) Thank you so much Jackie & David. We have had a wonderful holiday and the weather has been fantastic, although nothing would stop us from going in the sea! All the facilities in the cottage are brilliant and the beds are so comfortable! As Bea says, easy access to the beach is a huge bonus and the kids absolutely loved the huge rock pools and caves to explore. As well as seimming and body boarding. We are sad to leave today :(
