Royd is a lovely two bedroom holiday cottage situated at Lower Aylescott and within easy reach of Ilfracombe and North Devon's premier beaches. The cottage sleeps up to four and is the perfect home-away-from-home. Whilst staying at Lower Aylescott guests have access to onsite communal gardens, two fishing lakes and a children's play area.

The cottage was fine but a few tweaks are maybe needed to make it really nice.
In the kitchen the cutlery was very light weight. There was a selection of glasses but only 2 small glasses. The lounge area could have done with a table or standard light rather than the central ceiling light. In the bathroom where was nowhere to put toiletries, a shelf or small unit would have been useful.
The weather when we arrived was unseasonably cold and it was lovely to find the heating was on, so good for drying our towels.
When we found out that our toaster wasn't working it was replaced quickly.
The setting of the cottage was very peaceful.
