What a place to stay! Incredible views over Combe Martin and a stroll to the beach.
Accommodation was clean, warm and welcoming. Looking forward to booking again.
The location was ideal to visit the North Devon coast - which suited us as I wanted to go to Croyde Bay. The lodge was quiet with lovely views. The lodge provided everything we wanted or could have needed. We really enjoyed our stay.
We had a short break for 2 nights over christmas day, There was a Christmas tree and lights put up for us as well as some welcome gifts left for our arrival. The lodge was spotless, well equipped and warm! There was 6 of us including my 83year old nan who has mobility issues and there was no problems at all The view was fab you could hear the church bells in the distance as well as one morning you could hear the wolves howling from the nearby zoo! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay the lodge was just perfect in every way, Thankyou so much
We had a lovely stay in Apple Tree Lodge, its in a great location to explore North Devon, and we even ventured into Cornwall! The Lodge was very well equipped and had lots of space for our family of six. Caroline and Jon were great hosts and I would happily recommend staying here!
I would highly recommend this property, itâs very comfortable and has a wonderful terrace with an amazing view. Itâs in a really good location, with lots of lovely beaches nearby. My five year old loved the rock pools at Coombe Martin. Jon the owner is very friendly and recommended us a hidden beach which we would never have found on our own, which was beautiful.
We had a very pleasant stay in the cottage. It was clean and comfortable and a perfect place for exploring the beautiful area. While we did not personally meet the owners, the written communication was always quick and kind and helpful. Definitely recommended.
We had a good break with plenty to see and do in and around Combe Martin. The lodge was clean, spacious and the beds and bedlinen were very comfortable. The nearby Co-op was a bonus. Our hosts were very responsive and helpful. The views from the sundeck were marvellous and the peace and quiet, broken only by owls hooting, was wonderful. We would come again!
The property is up on the hill with a wonderful view. The accommodation was roomy, well appointed, clean and welcoming. The town/beach is about half hour walk but there are a few shops (bakery & supermarket) about halfway. A lovely stay, thank you.
The Lodge was perfect for our stay. It was clean, quiet and comfortable and extremely dog friendly which made a relaxing week a possibility. It is a great base for visiting sites like Ilfracombe, Lynton and Valley of the Rocks, whilst Combe Martin gives easy access to the coastal path. The new Co-op at the bottom of the lane is a big bonus too if you are self caterers like we were. We had a lovely week!
Really appreciated the ramped access, the lodge is at one level. Suited us well as our son has limited mobility. Co-op just down the lane was great, we went everyday. We had a lot of rain but the terrace seating must be lovely in the summer. We still appreciated the incredible views from there, we just didnât sit out. There were four of us staying and the living area was very comfortable.
We had a wonderful stay at Apple Tree Lodge, we found the property to be much more spacious than pictured. The views from the terrace were beautiful and we will miss having our dinners out there. We found the property very clean and had mostly everything we could have needed - could have done with some oven gloves and bigger pans but only a minor blip. There were some problems with the WiFi (not a fault with the property) but were promptly fixed, it was very fast and reliable. We would gladly return and stay again.
We stayed for 1 week and oh I wish id booked 2 ( never wanted to leave really).
It was amazing, the property, the location, the views it had it all.
Its far from Combe Martin beach with its shops, pubs and restaurants which we did frequent numerous times.
The property has everything you need for the perfect stay, we didn't cook but everything was there, the beds where comfy, the living area was very spacious and immaculately clean throughout.
We will be back our family really enjoyed the accommodation.
Thank you Caroline for everything and the chocolates were a big hit too
It was the perfect spot for us - two couples with three dogs.
Great for exploring a beautiful part of the country and although the weather wasnât the best we made the most of the stunning surroundings
The description of the property was very accurate and we were well aware the âroadâ leading up to the property was very uneven. Although when driven carefully at slow speed we had no problem.
Inside was welcoming and had everything we needed, the balcony must be lovely when the weather allows!!
Overall we had no complaints about our stay apart from the decking was very slippery leading down to the car parking.
Would recommend a stay here.
We stayed for 4 nights in September. The property had pretty much everything we needed for a short stay. Itâs nicely tucked away down a back road, however itâs not the best road so youâll need decent ground clearance.
Positives:
Views
Space - good size as it was only two of us staying, would have been different if there was 6 people
Location- short drives to some beautiful places
Value for money
Negatives:
Harsh lighting in the main rooms
Noise- there was an hour long drum lesson after we arrived and the lawns were mowed with a petrol lawn mower in the middle of our stay, coming right up to the property and decking.
Overall I would recommend this place this place.
Combe Martin is very pretty and the property is well located, only a short walk from some nice local pubs. Can particularly recommend the Pack of cards, which has a garden and adventure playground for kids. I didn't try walking into town as the kids were too small. The property is very clean and tidy and as described on the listing. I got a bit confused by the recycling, but hope we got it right.
Only real downside is the state of the access road, this did cause some problems as one car has low ground clearance and the other was a van that slipped easily on the corner. Fine really , but just worth being prepared for some handling!
