Holt Waves Reviews

Pete
Holt Waves is a large house in a good location almost directly backing onto Northam Burrows and a short walk to both the sea and the centre of Westward Ho! The house was generally well-equipped and the bedrooms were large with good quality bedding. The wi-fi worked well but the TV seemed to be set-up exclusively for guests to sign on to their preferred apps, such as Netflix & BBC iPlayer, which was a bit odd. The two parking spaces are great as Eastbourne Terrace is a very narrow road but note that only one is accessed via a dropped kerb. This is a comfortable property but don't expect high-end. We also had some housekeeping issues which was disappointing.
Kate
Lovely big house, great location for the beach and coastal walks! Wine on arrival was a nice touch! Also really well equipped, would definitely recommend.
Mark
Good house for a large group in a good location to walk in to westward ho and access surrounding areas by car. The house is well equipped and clean with off road parking for 2 cars.
Angela
Excellent property, really comfortable and decorated. It was very well equipped and it felt like the owners had thought about what guests needed.
Paul
The house is large, clean, well equipped and in an excellent location. The fact that I booked it for next year while I was there says it all.
Stephanie
There were 6 adults and one big dog in our 5 night stay. Two had to work from home during some of the stay and found no problems with the internet and holding TEAM meetings. There are desks in three of the bedrooms. The house was well equipped, very comfortable and spacious. The location was excellent for our walks across the field and to the beach. And also to the town centre. We are hopping to return during the year.
Catherine
Good spacious house, 3 toilets 2 bathrooms. Beds very comfortable. Close to beach and amenities, all in walking distance.
J
A beautiful house in a perfect location. Weâ??ve stayed in Westward Ho! Three times now and will be back for sure.
Brian
Great location and beautiful house, a real pleasure to come back to after a day on the beach. Loved the decor, the subtle coastal theming and the views especially from the bedrooms. I would stay here again.
Patricia
A lovely spacious house not far from the very handy Tesco but still out of town . It is also close to other villages. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the only problem was dealt with quickly and to our satisfaction.
Mark
This place is fantastic !! Lovely decor and furniture, lots of quality glasses , mugs and pans etc. Really comfy beds and lovely bathrooms including double sinks in each one.
