What are the check-in and check-out times?

Check-in is from 4.00pm on your day of arrival, with check-out by 10.00am on departure day. This gives our housekeeping team time to prepare the apartment to the highest standard for every guest.

Can I use a BBQ at No.9 Putsborough?

For safety reasons, BBQs aren’t permitted on the apartment balcony. However, you’re very welcome to enjoy one on Woolacombe or Barricane Beach instead. Please make sure it’s in a proper container and fully extinguished with water (not sand) before leaving.

What onsite facilities are available?

During your stay at our Woolacombe self-catering apartment, you can relax and unwind with our indoor heated swimming pool, sauna, and gym, open daily during Guest Services hours (9am–5pm, or 8am–6pm from May to September, subject to change), 7 days per week, excluding 25–26 December. For a calm, uncrowded experience, the pool, sauna and gym can be pre-booked online from 14 days before your arrival.

The games room is ready for fun (£1 per game, turn up and play), and all facilities are included in the cost of your stay.

Please note that availability is subject to change. If, for reasons outside our control, any onsite facilities* are unavailable or restricted during your stay, we’ll inform you as soon as possible. While we aim to provide a seamless experience, no compensation can be offered for such changes.

(*Onsite facilities include, but are not limited to: indoor swimming pool, sauna, gym, games room, treatment room, EV charging pods, outdoor shower, leisure deck, and Guest Services.)

How warm is the indoor pool?

The indoor pool is a cosy 28–30°C, perfect for a relaxing swim whatever the weather. As it is unsupervised, children should always be accompanied by an adult to ensure everyone stays safe while enjoying the water.

Is No.9 Putsborough suitable for guests with restricted mobility?

The apartment is all on one level, making it easy to move around. There is lift access from the parking area to the apartment, though this cannot be guaranteed. In the event of a fire, a short internal flight of stairs leads to the nearest fire escape, followed by a few external steps to reach level ground.

Please note there is a small step onto the private balcony and into the ensuite shower tray. If you have any concerns about accessibility or restricted mobility, please contact us before booking so we can ensure our Woolacombe self-catering apartment is suitable for your stay.

Is a security deposit required for a stay?

No.9 Putsborough is our much-loved home, and we’re delighted to share it with you. The security deposit helps protect the apartment during your stay. We understand that little accidents can happen —but please let us know if anything occurs so it can be sorted for future guests. Provided all is well, your deposit will be returned a few days after departure.

This ensures peace of mind while staying in our luxury holiday apartment in Woolacombe.

Can I pay for my stay in instalments?

Yes! After paying your 30% deposit to secure your booking, you can spread the remaining balance in smaller payments at any time that suits you. Payments are made securely via the payment link in your booking confirmation email, with no extra fees. The full balance must be paid 8 weeks before arrival, and this option is available for direct bookings only.

We hope this makes planning your stay easy and stress-free — we can’t wait to welcome you to No.9 Putsborough!

What happens if I need to cancel my booking?

We completely understand that sometimes plans can change unexpectedly. Should you need to cancel your stay, our standard Terms and Conditions will apply. Cancellations made 8 weeks or more before arrival will result in the loss of your booking deposit (30% of the total accommodation cost). Cancellations made with less than 8 weeks prior to the arrival date receive no refund and the guest is liable for 100% of the total holiday cost.

As the deposit is non-refundable, we strongly recommend that guests take out suitable holiday or travel insurance at the time of booking. This offers peace of mind and protection should unforeseen circumstances arise — such as illness, travel disruption or family emergencies.

Please note that our cancellation terms are applied consistently to all bookings to ensure fairness for every guest.

We can’t wait to see you
