Mrs Phillips
Lovely 4 bed property within walking distance of the village centre. A high standard and very comfortable. Good position for walks from the door although you need to be fit as the coastal path is steep with many ups and downs.

Mailscot is a beautiful place to stay! We loved the log fire, the house keeps really warm, the garden is spacious and gets loads of sun. Woolacombe bay is a 5 minute drive away and there are some beautiful walks straight out the drive. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back again!
