Nestled in its own attractive gardens, this single storey detached cottage features an open plan kitchen and dining room with patio doors out to this very view, which is likely to make every stay here a truly unforgettable experience. It sits up above the beautiful Lee Bay, on the sunny side of the valley, so you can enjoy the rays late into the evening, often culminating in spectacular sunsets.

We loved staying at Millfield Cottage, the house is well equipped and spacious. The location is fabulous, we were there in October, so the weather was stormy, being warm and cosy in the house while watching the waves break on the rocks and hearing the wind on the sea was just great. Lee bay is a fantastic rocky bay with caves and many hidden beaches, worth exploring. The garden is also lovely. The narrow Devon lanes can be a bit daunting but taken carefully you soon learn how to navigate them. This is an 'out of the way' holiday spot but in close reach of cafes and restaurants in both Woolacombe and Ilfracombe. We had a fab time and would definitely return. Thank you.
We had a lovely week away at this property. It has such amazing views to enjoy and is a great base to explore North Devon. Right next to the coastal paths which we took into both Ilfracombe and Woolacombe with our dog - tiring but beautiful! Excellent hosts, look forward to visiting again.

Amazing location
Ensure you love hills before you go, the views are amazing.
We are 3 sisters and our friend who visit every year to walk the South West Coastal path. The cottage was right on the path so could not have been better placed. We arrived in the dark and could not believe how beautiful the views were when we awoke in the morning. The pictures on the Internet were far exceeded by the real thing. Everything was really clean, warm and fully equipped for our stay. When we were not walking we spent most of time in the conservatory looking at the view or doing jigsaw puzzles. Would recommend this cottage to all age groups and hope to come back again
