Guests say
Cockleshell Lodge in Croyde is highly praised for its cleanliness, prime location near the beach and village, and family-friendly amenities. Guests appreciate the well-equipped, modern property with spacious rooms, high ceilings, and an outdoor shower. The lodge is ideal for families, with a quiet atmosphere and comfortable furnishings, though some guests noted a lack of cosiness in colder months.
Guests consistently note the property as extremely clean upon entry, with wooden floors that are easy to maintain, suggesting a high standard of cleanliness.
The lodge's location is frequently commended for its proximity to both the beach and the village centre, offering a quiet setting with easy access to local attractions.
The property is described as comfortable, with large sofas and comfy beds, though one review mentioned a lack of cosiness and issues with heating, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities are well-regarded, including a well-stocked kitchen and an Xbox for entertainment. However, one guest mentioned there was only one game available, and another had issues with the underfloor heating.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

Mrs Scouller
Fab, modern cottage in outstanding location. Loved having our groceries delivered and coming off the beach to relax each night. Outdoor shower isn't great but it was enough to wash sand off our feet. Outdoor space is small but secure and gets some nice sunlight during the day. Beds super comfy and added bonus of left bed area, reached by ladder, which our girls loved.

Highly Recommend - Will definitely stay again - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great location to beach and village, both within short walking distance of the house. We're a family of 5 with two teenage surfing mad boys and our 9 year old beach mad daughter, so easy access to the beach and village was vital for us. Property was clean, well maintained, and well appointed. The high ceilings make the rooms feel spacious and open. Roof widows are an excellent addition if you are lucky enough to get hot weather like we did, and there is also no shortage of fans and TV's with both in just about every room. There is an electric fireplace in the sitting room although we never used this due to the glorious weather we had and sofas are a comfy relief after long days at the beach. Kitchen is well stocked will all the utensils, pots, pans, plates, cutlery, etc that one needs stashed away and available in the cupboards and draws. The breakfast bar and two stools are a nice touch and made the perfect place for me to feed the boys before they disappeared for the day. The outside shower is a massive positive as being able to de-sand and wash down outside before going into the house works really well especially with children and all the surfing and beach kit. All-in-all, a Great property, excellent location and we had a perfect week in Croyde Bay.
