Our first visit and we will definitely be back! The lodge was clean and comfortable. Very impressed at the kitchen facilities with hob, cooker, fridge, freezer, toaster, kettle and microwave. Good selection of pans and utensils. Great for self catering! TVs in 2 of the bedrooms.

We enjoyed our stay here, the ambience was nice, staff were friendly.. The only thing I would have commented on was the lack of lighting in their rooms. Overall it was quiet dark and because our room was overlooking the self catering lodges we had the curtauns drawn for their privacy and our own. Apart from that it was a very pleasant stay. My family enjoyed themselves alot. On that note what I didn't like was the check out time was too early. It would have been perfect for a later time to check out as we were really tired from the day before. Bit of a lie in would have been lovely. Just felt very rushed. ..Paying £120 per room per night is a bit dear and then to check out by 10am does feel a little inconvenient..

Wonderful resort in beautiful location by the sea.

We had a lovely family stay at Croyde Bay Holliday resort. Our dog friendly lodge was comfortable and we loved all that the resort had to offer, pool, tennis, beach nearby and their buffet breakfast at the restaurant was delicious, we will definitely be back to stay.

What an amazing place to stay!!! The staff were exceptionally friendly. Everything ran smoothly. The room in the hotel was spacious with a kitchen area. We requested a room suitable for my mum who has mobility issues and the room we got was perfect- no steps, near thw restaurant and with a little outside patio area. Perfect location for the town and me and daughter easily walked in via the beach and the road. Great spot for surf. A really laid back place to stay.

Served a purpose

Excellent location with a good range of on-site amenities. Room we had (ground floor and designed for disabled use - we’re not disabled) was not in great condition or cleanliness (e.g. there was a doggy smell lingering). Staff we met were friendly.
