Testimonials from happy guests!

​

'First time to Ilfracombe and what an amazing flat to stay in.  Views as you can see are amazing and nestled right in the heart of the town.  We spent a weekend here and ventured into Woolacombe Bay.  We actually went to the other end Putsborough end each day.  A lot quieter with a lovely cafe for lunch.  Definitely coming back!'

'This is our second visit to No 5 Compass and we love coming here.  The property is stunning and immaculate throughout.

If you ever wanted a room with a sea view, then No 5 is perfect.

More than enough space for a family there are two good sized bedrooms one with an ensuite and another separate spacious bathroom

The hosts are lovely and have provided everything you could possibly think of for your stay and on this occasion had even left a lovely bottle of Prosecco as we were celebrating a special birthday.

Parking at times can be tricky in Ilfracombe.  Out of season there are a few car parks close by that can be used with the ringgo app but No 5 now has its own allocated spot close by which only makes this an easier decision when booking your stay.

There are some great little treats to find as well that are within easy walking distahce such as the George and Dragon pub.  Santiagos and the Quays and a lovely little Italian place called Giovanni and Luca that do great pizzas.'

'A truly stunning location, amazing views and beautiful apartment from which to enjoy the town.  We will be returning if we are able to fit in to the scores of bookings that this gem of a place will get.  View was amazing, but so too was the well furnished apartment.  Thank you for having us.'

'A last minute trip to Ilfracombe with the children.

This apartment was perfect and the views are enough to make you not want to leave.

Perfectly equipped and situated so near for the harbour - it literally could not have been more special for us all.  Thank you for sharing this gem with us.  We'll be back.'
