Beautiful bijou cottage, that the owners have put their heart soul and thought into. The equipment is everything you could want and the decoration is top notch. My own personal opinion was that the bed is too firm for me a topper would be great. From the outside it was a little underwhelming. But once through the front door, Point Break did not disappoint. Nice views from the bedroom window and even better ones when you go to the top floor. The cottage is situated very centrally for everything. The Burrows just round the corner excellent for walking the dogs and the beach and all amenities are only a 5min walk away. There is a very lovely small local park across the road.. after all our years and only living up the road in Somerset we can’t believe we had never visited Westward Ho! Before. It really is a fabulous little place with one of the best beaches we have been on, miles of packed sand to walk on with the dogs and great fun for the kids if you have them. There is a visitor centre on the Burrows serves tea coffee cake and cooked snacks. In the village centre are 3 good coffee shops (tried them all). A chip shop and several pubs, our favourite was Fairways buoys. Great place to sit sup and watch the waves.
