Description
Bicclescombe Grange is a large detached luxury house, formerly a substantial Gentleman's residence, built around the turn of the last century. The property has accommodation on three storeys and is furnished in a period style, with a magnificent indoor heated swimming pool and many other fantastic features.
The Grange lies on the outskirts of Ilfracombe, the main coastal resort on North Devon's beautiful coastline and is set at the end of a private drive, within three acres of superb gardens, adjoining open fields and countryside. Bicclescombe Park, with its many amenities sits at the end of our drive whilst nearby are the wonderful sandy beaches of Woolacombe, Saunton and Croyde. See the Location page for more information on the surrounding area.
It's a very big house and has a games room with a full sized snooker table, dart board, table tennis and piano. There's a new 60" large screen television with all Sky's channels and a computer with internet access. And for the younger children, there are lots and lots of toys!
We had a large house and now we've got a large kitchen to go with it! The kitchen area has been completely overhauled and expanded. Granite surfaces, marble tiles, solid oak furniture and stainless steel appliances, including a 7 burner range and an enormous American style fridge freezer make this a wonderful place to cook. With high and low level seating areas, a large flat screen tv with Sky Plus, an ice maker and even a large capacity wine cooler, it's also a great place to socialise, supervise children, or just sit with a glass of wine and watch the chef at work.
With eight bedrooms this large holiday home sleeps 23 (as of May 2010 we've added another bed so if you considered or booked before then thinking we could only sleep 22 please see if this helps with your arrangements) and is perfect for a luxury self-catering extended family holiday or for several families or group of friends to get together. Or perhaps you are looking for a fantastic party venue to celebrate a 40th birthday, 50th birthday, or other special occasion. Or maybe you'd just like somewhere you can relax in style. Bicclescombe Grange will not disappoint. And now you don't need to just take our word for it – we've put our Guestbook online and you can see for yourselves exactly what all of our previous guests have said over the last year.
