Find your favourite space by the sea

Woolacombe Holiday Homes that can combine luxury and being dog friendly!

Perfectly placed in the heart of the village on the North Devon coast and just 4 minutes from the beach.

Life is busy enough. At No.9 Putsborough, everything is set up so you can arrive, unpack and get straight on with your holiday. Woolacombe Beach is just four minutes from the door, the village is on your doorstep and even the dog is catered for. 

Days can be as simple as heading down to the beach, coming back for a swim in the indoor pool, then wandering into the village for dinner. Or staying in, opening a bottle of wine and settling in somewhere that feels every bit as lovely as you hoped it would.

Inside, you’ll find beautiful, comfortable spaces and all the things that make a holiday easier — a properly equipped kitchen, wonderfully comfy beds, beach gear ready to borrow and thoughtful extras waiting when you arrive. As one guest put it, “The flat was even more lovely than expected and had absolutely everything needed for a relaxing stay.”

Perhaps that’s why so many of our guests return. No.9 Putsborough is somewhere to switch off, enjoy being together and make the most of Woolacombe — one less thing to plan, and more time to enjoy being here.

A place that feels as good as it looks

No.9 Putsborough is somewhere we’ve put a lot of ourselves into. It’s stylish and beautifully designed, but never too precious for sandy children, tired feet or a dog curled up after a day on the beach.

There are two comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms and plenty of room for four to settle in. The kitchen is properly equipped, the beds are wonderfully comfy and the little things you might not think to pack have probably already been thought of.

We want you to walk through the door and feel that you’ve chosen well. As one guest put it, “The flat was even more lovely than expected”; another thanked us for “the trouble you take to make your apartment a home from home.”

Beautiful enough to feel like a treat, comfortable enough to make yourself completely at home.

Moments from the shoreline

No.9 Putsborough sits right in the heart of Woolacombe village on the North Devon coast, with Woolacombe Beach just a four-minute walk from your door. Barricane and Combesgate are within walking distance too, so choosing which beach to head for might be one of the harder decisions of the day.

You can leave the car in its underground parking space and walk to cafés, restaurants, pubs, independent shops and the beach. For families with children — or anyone travelling with a dog — having everything this close really does make a difference.

And when you do fancy venturing further, Woolacombe is a brilliant base for exploring more of North Devon, from nearby beaches and hidden coves to the South West Coast Path and days out further along the coast.

More than just a beautiful apartment

“Hands down the best UK break we have had. Property is amazing, everything you could wish for.”

“The perfect host, and with the help of a beautiful hamper filled with surprise goodies, a kitchen stocked with everything we needed and comfy beds, we soon forgot that we weren’t actually at home.”

“My two boys did not want to leave — they wanted to stay forever.”

“A beautiful home in a stunning location — cannot fault the place or our host.”

When you arrive, you’ll find a welcome hamper waiting, beach equipment ready to borrow from our surf shed and, if you fancy making arrival even easier, the option to pre-order one of our deli boxes. If you’re bringing your dog, we’ll have a few useful things ready for them too.

Staying at No.9 Putsborough comes with a few extras too. Head downstairs for a swim in the indoor heated pool, book the sauna, fit in a gym session or challenge the children to a game of table football or pool in the games room — all part of your stay and especially handy when the North Devon weather has other ideas.

And because No.9 Putsborough is independently owned and hosted, there’s a real person behind your booking. From the first question to the day you arrive, you’ll hear from us directly — and we’ll do everything we can to help make your holiday a good one.

Perhaps our guests say it best: “There is nothing better than thoughtful hosts.”

A beautiful home in a stunning location!

A beautiful home in a stunning location. Cannot fault the place or our host. Kathryn has been a joy to communicate with from start to finish. She has thought of everything to make your stay the best it can possibly be. You will not be disappointed and I highly recommend staying at No.9 Putsborough. My two young boys 10 and 6 did not want to leave, saying they wanted to stay forever. You can’t get higher praise than that!

5* communication from the start!

What a wonderful stay, Kathryn was a wonderful host. We received 5* communication from the start and the apartment was just lovely and exactly as described, the style and small touches were very luxurious (you appreciate these things when you have two very young children! We would highly recommend the apartment and location, we visited the beach daily and got to know the area well thanks to the welcome pack. We hope to return in the near future. Thank you Kathryn.

The apartment was out of this world!

We really enjoyed our stay at No9 Putsborough, Kathryn was so helpful, communication was excellent. The apartment was out of this world, never stayed somewhere where the owner had thought about all the little touches. The welcome hamper was such a lovely touch after our 5 hour drive down. Our doggy Reggie loved how close we were to the beach, he really enjoyed the outdoor warm shower. People around Woolacombe are so friendly, we will definitely be back next year. Thank you Kathryn for such a special and relaxing stay.

Hands down the best UK break we have had!

Hands down the best UK break we have had. Property is amazing, everything that you could wish for. Well equipped, perfect location for beach access too. Property owner communication was spot on too, would highly recommend to anyone considering a break in Woolacoombe.

Everything we hoped for..

It was our first time staying in the Woolacombe and No.9 Putsborough was everything we hoped for. It was so clean, stylish and homely. I loved sitting on the balcony in the mornings and evenings enjoying the view and the children particularly enjoyed the PS4 after a busy day on the beach (the beach chairs came in very useful!).  The welcome pack and Prosecco on arrival were much appreciated after a long drive down to Woolacombe. Thank you so much for making our holiday special, we would definitely like to stay again.

Didn’t want to leave!

Thank you for a wonderful stay in your fabulously equipped, beautiful flat. We had fantastic stay enjoying Woolacombe and Saunton Sands beaches. We loved the Sri Lankan curry at Barricane Beach and the delicious food at The Captain’s Table. The kids were in tears yesterday as they didn’t want to leave and are desperate to return. Thank you.

Woolacombe has been a blast!

Thank you for a lovely stay in your wonderful apartment. We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Second time staying in Woolacombe, first time at No.9 Putsborough. We would LOVE to come back. Had fun on the belly boards, relaxing and looking at the coffee table books, such thoughtful touches. Communication with Kathryn before our stay was fab. Woolacombe has been a blast!

What a lovely ‘home from home’!

The apartment is so well stocked and thought out, clean and comfortable. Fantastic situation, we loved being so close to the beach and village and being able to stroll around so easily. We had a very restful and replenishing week here and are leaving with happy memories and a firm intention to return. We hope everyone else can enjoy their stay as much as we have.

A very special stay indeed!

The perfect stay for some relaxation after the Christmas period. Kathryn was the perfect host, and with the help of a beautiful hamper filled with surprise goodies, a kitchen stocked with everything we needed and comfy beds, we soon forgot that we weren’t actually at home. The kids loved the indoor pool and being just a couple of steps away from the town was fab. A very special stay indeed! Can’t wait to return.

It was our first Christmas away & it has been by far the best!

We absolutely LOVED this beautiful apartment by the sea. It was our first Christmas away & it has been by far the best. Kathryn had left a beautiful hamper, wine & presents under the tree. The flat is stunning we felt so at home we didn’t want to leave. The beach is 5 mins walk if that & it’s probably one of my favourite beaches we’ve visited so far. We will definitely be back again. Probably in the winter as we don’t like too many people! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay ❤️

No.9 Putsborough offers an instant WOW!

No detail has been overlooked from the interiors to the equipment simply 5 star! The beach is a quick 5 minute walk from the apartment and
we all really enjoyed the facilities making use of the gym, pool and sauna the booking system is simple and easy and of course the benefit being we had the facilities all to ourselves …. pure luxury! Woolacombe has oodles to offer as well as a stunning setting, we will be returning before everyone discovers this amazing apartment!

Fantastic apartment – superbly equipped with all you need for a stress-free break!

Car parking a real bonus as always difficult at seaside resorts. 5 min walk to local restaurants, take-aways and small convenience store. For the more energetic, Woolacombe and Putsborough beaches, South West coast path are on the doorstep. A little further away, Saunton Sands and Braunton Burrows with their W.W.2 history are worth a visit. We shall certainly be returning to No. 9 Putsborough.

Absolutely fabulous in every way!

Beautifully decorated, with lots of lovely little touches such as the belly boards and soft blanket on the sofa, which made it feel that much more homely. So close to the fabulous Woolacombe beach too. We loved our stay from start to finish. Thank you!

Such a beautiful place!

My wife & I were stunned as soon as we arrived. The flat is so welcoming & calming, the welcome pack is beautiful & delicious, great views. Such comfortable furnishings, we felt like VIPS being here.

So glad we chose this flat for our first holiday with our 10 month old son and his first visit to the seaside. 10/10 would love to stay here again!

One word I would use to describe this apartment is: perfect!

Every need was catered for and even a welcome hamper provided which was a touch of class. We have been coming to Woolacombe for 20 years & this by far tops any place we’ve stayed in before.

We have had a lovely week!

You have thought of everything and it felt instantly relaxing walking through the door. This is not my first visit to Woolacombe but definitely the best! Hope to be back soon!

Location is just perfect!

We have had a lovely week in your really comfortable, home from home apartment. Thank you for the welcome hamper, what a lovely surprise when you walk in after a long journey down. We hope to be back again as we have had such a lovely time!

We can’t wait to welcome you
