A lovely little lodge in a lovely location! To hear the sound of the waves crashing whilst chilling in the hot tub was magical.The lodge is cosy but had everything we needed, parking is tight but there was still space! Only downside was places being closed as we went out of season but it still didnt stop anything we wanted to do!

Cairnwood offers adequate space & it has been maintained to a high standard so it looks as nice as when I first visited almost 10 years ago. The views are gorgeous & it is a stones throw from the most lovely little beach. There is everything you need in the accommodation & thanks to amazing staff, changes have been made over the years to make it even better such as addition of a microwave & replacing items with things of equal quality so it never looks old or tired. Perfect in every way :)

The site is about 9 years old. The lodges, jackusi's and grounds are in constant use and the staff and Darwin work hard and invest to maintain the park in good condition and we appreciate their efforts.

We love coming here every year.When approached the staff are great, however we found difficulty when trying to make contact when we encountered a problem as office was closed and no option to leave a message on the phone when we rang.Mirror in bathroom looks damaged/worn, which makes the bathroom look shabby.Booked to stay again already in 2025 and really looking forward to visiting again.

Cairnwood Sea View lodges are in the perfect location to watch the sea and the sun rise on the hills opposite. Parking next to the lodges really help as well.

The apartment had everything we needed and with a spectacular view of the bay. Local amenities were good with a large Tesco nearby. Well placed for access by car to lots of interesting locations such as Lynton & Lynmouth and for those fancying a bit of surfing Woolacombe 20 mins away.Only bit that needs improving would be a bit of updating on the some of the fixtures as we did have some window locks that did not work properly, but overall clean and tidy.

Requires tlc and new furniture, living room cabinet well past sell by date , sofa ripped, paint and sealant required in lots of the unit, bathroom cabinet well past its sell by date, mirror in bathroom where it meets sink grubby and ot sealed.High level cleaning wouldntgo a miss..Not for anyone with mobility problems or like taking clothes on holiday as no where to store clothes. Really enjoyed the location and hot tube, would definitely not pay high season prices, as the unit is looking and feels shabby. After all said it did not distract from having a great holiday, dueto the great location.

We had originally booked a beach cabin, but got moved to one of the apartments due to our cabin being damaged before we got there. It was an upgrade to our original booking due to having a hot tub, but we did feel like we missed out on the cabin experience that we had originally booked for so felt it was a shame not to be kept in one of these instead. That being said, the apartment was clean, tidy, very spacious, and everything was in good working order besides the blinds in the bedroom (very hard to pull up and down - we ended up just leaving them down the whole time). The location was lovely and we enjoyed the coastal walk opposite the holiday site. Staff were friendly and helpful, gave us a good recommendation of a place to visit that ended up being our favourite part of the holiday. My only critique besides the blinds would be to have scissors in the kitchen drawer as we had to use knives to open things due to not finding any (sorry if there were some and we missed them!). Overall we enjoyed our stay and would return to try a beach cabin in future.

We had a lovely week, accommodation is lovely, a small and cosy space. there is no wardrobe/storage space however this is clear in pictures etc but would be a nice addition is space wasnt an issue.The hot tub was nice, very private, we had no issues with this and the patio furniture was nice. We were lucky to have the weather to sit outside a few times in our stay! It would be nice if the frosted glass stickers could be replaced as these are starting to looking a little worn.

We had a fabulous 5 days staying in this cute beach hut. Very comfy cosy. Clean and nicely decorated. Everything you need for a few nights away. Very well equipped. Beautiful views of the cove and out to sea. Very hilly! Staff were very friendly and helpful. We booked last minute so price was very low. We will definitely be coming back.

Only issue we had was that we were aware our lodge would be small, however the bathroom was never shown in the photos online so we werent aware how small the shower would be, may be worth putting a small shelf in as picking items up off the floor was challenging in the space.Despite this we were very happy with our stay and would highly recommend to others.

Lovely 4 night stay for two of us and our dog. The beach house had everything we needed and was comfortable and clean. We were lucky to have a partial sea view to the cove of Hele Bay. Great location for Woolacombe beach walks and other beaches.Would definitely stay here again.
