No 5 Compass, Ilfracombe 

*Panoramic Sea Views
*Dog Friendly   
*Own Parking Space

 

No. 5 Compass is a stunning two-bedroom, two-bathroom top-floor apartment (one en suite) set on the third floor of an elegant Victorian building, directly overlooking the sea in the heart of Ilfracombe.

​

The breathtaking coastal views are truly unforgettable and change beautifully with the weather. From the apartment you can enjoy watching boats coming and going, seabirds soaring overhead, and on lucky days even seals or porpoises as they go about their daily lives.

​

Recently refurbished to a high standard, the apartment is presented as a warm and comfortable retreat. It features two well-appointed bedrooms, two bathrooms (including an en suite), a spacious lounge/dining area, and a modern, well-equipped kitchen—ideal for both short breaks and longer stays.

​

Guests can enjoy Wi-Fi, a Smart TV, and a fully equipped kitchen with coffee maker, microwave, oven, washer-dryer, and freezer—everything you need for a relaxing, self-catered holiday.

​

Ilfracombe is famous for its excellent fish and chips, and you’ll find three great choices within 200 yards of No. 5 Compass. Despite the central location, the apartment benefits from its own dedicated parking space, just a few yards away—an invaluable feature, especially during the busy summer months.

​

​The apartment welcomes up to two well-behaved, toilet-trained dogs. With beautiful beaches and areas of outstanding natural beauty just minutes away, it’s an ideal base for a dog-friendly holiday.

​

The North Devon coastline offers endless opportunities for exploration, from the golden sands of Woolacombe, Croyde, and Saunton, to spectacular coastal walks including the famous Tarka Trail.

​

Ilfracombe itself rose to popularity during the Victorian era when the London & South Western Railway connected the town to the capital. Capstone Crescent was originally built as holiday homes for wealthy Victorians and has since evolved over time, now forming a collection of elegant apartments used for both residential living and memorable seaside holidays.
