Beachfront holiday rentals in Hele Bay

What a special place this is. Me and my sister wanted to stay near the harbour as we know the area well, and Julie's apartment was perfect. It has the most wonderful views of the sea from the lounge and kitchen, plus the spectacular coastline from the balcony. As an added bonus the bedrooms look out over the town and harbour. We felt right at home as soon as we walked in and the apartment has everything you need - and some! It's warm, cosy and very clean; also so peaceful and relaxing to be able to sit and just watch the sea. Even though it wasn't warm enough for us to sit out on the balcony, we could still enjoy the amazing views. On the first night we enjoyed our fish and chips from nearby Maddy's and had a lovely meal in Santiago's the second night, which is also close by. It was very difficult to tear ourselves away after our long weekend!

Highly recommend this cottage. We went as a family to celebrate my mums 80th birthday and it was perfect. Quiet, with stunning surrounding views and a beautiful sunset view. Fab memories that will last forever. Thank you.

Fabulous weekend away. The house is really well located and felt like home away from home.

We had a brilliant stay at Hideaway Cottage. It was well equipped, comfortable for 4 adults and the views (and sunsets) from the garden were absolutely stunning. Appledore itself is a perfect location to explore North Devon. Thanks also for the cream tea!

A fabulous few days away in Park Cottage with friends. Really lovely cottage with very comfortable beds (and feather pillows which was a bonus for us) Perfect location and massively recommend Miss Fea’s for dinner. Would love to come back again. Matt, Linda, Jill and Andrew

Beautiful place for a family weekend. Rachael was very clear with her instructions. The jacuzzi was fantastic! Would definitely recommend for family getaway!

Our stay at Apt 1 - Ground Floor Apt - Southover Beach was somthing else! Honestly the location everything about this stay was amazing stones throw away from the beach for our daily adventures with our dog. We will most definitely be staying here again. Hosts were quick and responsive. ☺️

Lovely home, well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. Great for 4 legged friends with a secure garden and suitable furnishings etc. The home is in a lovely area , with great views over the estuary from the rear of the house, particularly the main bedroom. Bideford itself is very pretty and a good base for exploring North Devon as it is close to the A39 / Atlantic Highway.

We had a lovely stay at Dreckly. Close to the local beach in Widemouth and those at Bude. Facilities were good on site, we enjoyed the indoor pool during the rainy parts our stay. Views from the holiday village were gorgeous. Thank you!

We loved our stay in Combe Martin, the caravan is perfectly located a short walk from the beautiful beaches, and there are wonderful walks on the South West Coast path and so many places interesting places to visit only a short drive away. The accommodation itself was really lovely and spotlessly clean. Please note there is no WiFi, and we feel it should not be listed in the amenities, as this is misleading. We finally purchased a connection to the John Fowler WiFi which was very poor and kept dropping off. This was frustrating and the only disappointment in an otherwise really fantastic stay.

This is our second stay at Atlantic View - and just as wonderful. Beautifully situated, with stunning views. A home from home - the space is very clean and well equipped. The holiday village is quiet, but with new facilities open which are lovely. Heated pool, bar and restuarant within walking distance.

Loved the Caravan clear instructions as to how to access and gain entry which was useful as we did not realise just how big the site was! It was very clean warm and comfortable also very well equipped. I have to say I did not read the instructions carefully enough and brought no bedding with us. This was resolved via the Reception on the site and for a small deposit we were provided with bedding which was delivered! Deposit returned on return of the bedding so no crisis. Lots of lovely walking from the caravan perfect for the dog. We were visiting friends in the area and would definitely consider coming again.

Great chalet and all we needed. Good access to Widemouth Bay, Bude and beyond! Bonus was being able to use the pool onsite!

Great house in lovely location. Layout suited us well (2 families with kids and grandparents). Washing facilities proved very useful. Pool rota worked well and there was always a time available that suited us (open 8am-7pm). Host responded quickly. Lacking house guidance but not a problem and host responded to advise. Note access into house could be an issue for less able and push chairs-steep steps to front and lowest step broken away (advised host so this might get fixed). Rear access via steps and narrow sloping and muddy path. Parking to rear -you block in your other car. Parking spaces not spacious but adequate. We loved it thank you Beach Retreats!

We had an absolutely perfect stay at Naomi’s place with our two young children. The location is perfect - 5 min walk from the beach and literally a road away from the main strip of shops and restaurants. View is spectacular when having a cup of tea by the window! Use of the amenities at the nearby holiday park is a real bonus. Apartment was absolutely spotless, and had some really thoughtful extras, like a hidden doll house, some kids books and games. Thank you for a brilliant stay, we’ll be back!

Beautiful caravan in a beautiful setting. Well equipped. Fantastic location, so close to the beach which is stunning. Jo's communication was brilliant. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely caravan.

Stunning apartment, immaculate throughout. Great attention to detail, beautiful view and great location. Worth every penny, will definitely return. Would highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed. 😃

The host was very responsive when we had questions and gave clear instructions on how to get in.The place itself is super quirky, decorated to a high standard & absolutely spotless. The super king sized beds are so so comfy. Best part is that it is a 2 minute walk from the beach! Would definitely recommend for a weekend away

very large apartment with great views and fantastic sunsets. I would happily recommend staying here. Chris.

We spent a week in this very pleasant and comfortable apartment. It is well equipped with everything needed to make our stay enjoyable. It has a superb view of the bay and is a short walk to the shops and restaurants.

We stayed for a few days to see the Earl of Rone folk festivities - absolutely perfect location right next to the beach. Incredibly clean, comfortable and welcoming space with a nice bottle of wine on our arrival. The flat had everything you could possibly need including a very well equipped kitchen with good quality implements (not always a given!). It's clear lots of time and thought has been put in to making this space feel just right. Lovely walks from the flat and a quick drive to places nearby that have lots of foodie options if fish and chips not your bag. Very much recommended!

We had a great stay, the flat was lovely with stunning views, the kitchen was very well equipped and had everything we needed to make a range of meals at home. Check in and check out was easy and Steve was really flexible with our times which was super helpful. The flat is really well positioned so close to the beach which made for some great beach day. I would happily stay again.

We had a lovely couple of days in the bungalow. We booked it mainly for the views, and it did not disappoint - such a treat to be able to look out to sea all day! The bungalow was clean, comfortable and well-equipped, and communication from the hosts was excellent. Thank you!

Edd and Andrea were wonderful hosts, and we enjoyed a fantastic stay at their beautiful holiday cottage. My wife, Emma and I have stayed in many holiday homes over the years, but I feel I can confidently say I never stayed in any that were so thoughtfully decorated and such care given to everything you might need to make the stay special. There were so many extra personal touches that you really see in don't see in other holiday cottages. There are so many to list, but some include a great DVD collection, games, quality soaps, a range of speciality teas and coffees and some lovely welcome gifts. Then, there is the stunning locations and views from every floor over the estuary and Crow Point. Each night, we were treated to an amazing sunset, viewed from the lounge or directly outside the house on the grassy verge. We were just disappointed that work meant we could not stay longer, but we will hopefully return soon. I can wholeheartedly recommend this cottage and the great hosts.
