This lovely cosy apartment set in the owner's own home is a little hidden gem and feels just like you're in a quaint tree house, set in the lovely hill side location, surrounded by trees, with a sea view, with stunning views over Lynmouth. We originally chose to stay here because it is pet-friendly and it has a car charger. The apartment is beautifully decorated throughout, spotlessly clean, in fact  we have never stayed anywhere so clean before and we are well-travelled. There is everything you could need for your stay, even a lovely little welcome gift of drinks and biscuits and the added bonus of beautiful toiletries.   The hosts were really brilliant, communicating well throughout the booking, preparation and arrival process. Nothing was any trouble. We would definitely recommend this romantic hideaway.  We also fell in love with Lynmouth and Linton 

Romantic hideaway 

A gorgeous cottage beautifully presented and recently renovated.  The aspects are beautiful woodland from picture windows in the lounge and double bedroom.   There’s a number of steps to access the property, however Jo & Nick were on hand to help with our suitcases.  The access road is through a single track up through woodland with a sharp turn off A39. 

Beautiful Cottage a good find

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Birds Eye View apartment at Countisbury Lodge.  It was very clean and homely with a well equipped kitchen area, a very comfy bed, and was beautifully and tastefully decorated.  We could hear the sea and just about see it when sat at the dining table in front of the window.  It was lovely to be able to sit outside and see the sea and look down on the town.  A great base from which to explore Exmoor. We didn't see our hosts until the day we left as the entrance to the apartment is totally independent of theirs, but we knew that if we needed anything they were close by.  

Birds Eye View apartment - great place to stay

Just come back from a three night stay.  The apartment was a real find.  It was well equipped, nicely decorated and very clean.  The icing on the cake was the lovely terrace and view overlooking the bay.  Jo and Nick were great hosts.  Would stay again and will recommend to friends.

Wonderful apartment with fantastic views

I stayed in the Birds Eye View apartment as my base for walking the South West Coast Path between Minehead and Woolacombe. The location is stunning with views over the sea and down to Lynmouth. One night I could even hear sea shanties from the harbour below. The apartment is spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well equipped. It was great to have a charging point for my EV car. Jo and Nick were friendly and helpful, and communication was excellent. Couldn’t be bettered - highly recommended.

Perfect base for South West Coast Path

Our ex-neighbours, Jane and Stuart, made us feel very welcome at their beautiful 19th-Century Rectory. Our room was absolutely lovely, spotlessly clean and newly-decorated with a fantastic en-suite bathroom and a view to die for. We were very lucky with the weather, and the little balcony came in very handy! Plus, there's proper coffee from the Nespresso machine...

Continental breakfast, beautifully laid out on the main terrace in the (late!) morning sun, was very laid-back as we looked down 200 feet into the Lynmouth valley and up 200 feet to the twin village of Lynton.

Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts during our three days stay, we even got driven up to Lynton (to save a gruelling walk :-) ) by Stuart, who waited while I bought a couple of pies for our dinner and took them back to put in the fridge while we carried on to the Valley of the Rocks.

Highly recommended for a short or long break... you'll need good walking shoes!

Fantastic short break

We stayed for 3 nights in the main house in a large, modern, clean , sunny room. Modern facilities which included a Nespresso Machine (pods provided) free WiFi(which was very good), modern bathroom, hair dryer, fridge iron and ironing board. Very large bed was comfortable with no expense spared on the fittings.. 
Stuart and Jane thankfully provided advice on the best walks, I wanted to do Julia Bradbury watersmeet walk, Janes advice which direction was greatly appreciated. My advice, take comfortable walking shoes!,
Lynmouth and Lynton are very pretty, but remember it’s hilly! 
Again Stuart’s advice we ate dinner in a very good restaurant in Lynton, best mussels I’ve eaten.
The hosts cannot do enough for you. 
Our room was in the main house, there is a cottage and an apartment too but we never saw these, and ample free parking. 
Overall an memorable stay, in a beautiful part of the country 

Wow on so many levels

The lodge itself is a beautiful sun trap. We stayed in a lovely clean airy room only room in the main house. Modern bathroom, with all the ‘mod cons’, nespreso machine, fridge, free WiFi ( which given the location was very good), hairdryer, iron and ironing board. Most comfortable bed we’ve slept in too!
We had a lovely balcony which looked over to Lynton and beyond.
The hosts Stuart and Jane are so tentative, genuinely couldn’t have done more, guiding us on the best walks and booking the nicest dinner in Lyndon. Nicest couple ever!!
I know there is a separate cottage and apartment but didn’t get to see. Both have sea views I believe
Overall, the views, the walks (bring comfortable shoes!!!), Julia Bradbury famous watersmeet walk leaves just form the house, the hosts, the house all made for a memorable stay.

Countisbury Lodge and the owners

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel really welcome, with our hosts ready to greet us on our arrival. Our journey had been long, but in the lounge were treat boxes with all sorts of goodies including granola and even dog snacks. In the well equipped kitchen we had been left fresh milk, tea and coffee. The kitchen gleamed, with new toaster and kettle. 

Upstairs, the bathroom, again had been thoroughly cleaned and left prepared with soap, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Into the bedrooms. New mattresses, cotton bedding and towels.  A new plush mat, ideal to feel your toes run through after a shower. The view, down into Lyn Vally Gorge and a glimpse of the waterfall, wonderful. 

Outside, we enjoyed the views and a drink from the patio chairs and table. If we preferred we could walk up the steps to the bench with a sea view and watch the world go by below in Lynmouth.

We enjoyed beautiful walks, in magical woodlands, by the river and panoramic views on the coastal paths. We saved the coastal walks for days when we felt energetic as some of the climbs could be quite steep. 

A wonderful holiday and we were able to relax from the moment of arrival, this was only made possible by the care and attention to detail given by our lovely hosts, Stuart and Jane. Sincere thanks, we look forward to visiting again.

A Cut Above

We have just returned after a week staying at the self catering Seaview Apartment which is adjoined to Countisbury Lodge and it was one of the best weeks away we have ever experienced (we are widely travelled). The location is absolutely stunning, the walks were amazing and Lynmouth has plenty of good eateries to choose from. We were blessed with amazing weather to help with appreciating the beauty of the woodland and coastal scenery. A must visit is Watersmeet House and Valley of Rocks and you can take a ride on the water powered cliff railway. The last word has to go to our accommodation, we were given a warm welcome by Sue and Mike which included a bottle of wine and delicious home made cake, Sue advised us on the town and where to eat and shop, we ate out but also spent a couple of nights in, sitting in the garden overlooking Lynmouth Bay watching the amazing sunsets, in the company of blackbirds, squirrels and the resident robin. After a days exploring and walking we would sit out reading and listening to the most abundant birdsong. This truly was a magical stay that we shall treasure. Thanks Sue and Mike. Thanks Lynmouth.
