Advantages: Beautiful scenery and great for a family holiday.

Disadvantages: Expensive for almost everything.

Woolacombe is one of my favourite UK holiday destinations because of so many reasons. Firstly, the landscape is just beautiful and I loved driving through it. However, I didn't like how the roads are very narrow because it is quite stressful driving. It also takes a long time to get anywhere from Woolacombe because of the landscape which is quite annoying. Despite this Woolacombe itself has so much to offer. There are many beautiful resteraunts including the Red Barn which I felt were very well priced and you can get a bite to eat quite cheaply.

The parking in the area is very expensive and I didn't like how you have to pay £6 just to go to the beach for a few hours. Despite this I loved how the beach's facilities were exceptional, they have well kept toilets and a very nice cafe. When the weather is good I loved going to the beach and just relaxing however, when it rains (quite often) it is very expensive to do anything else. For example, the golf around the area I thought was very expensive and even the bowling was very expensive.

There is such a variety of accomodation including many camping areas which is ideal. I personally loved staying in the watersmeet hotel which is very nice indeed. Through ever place in woolacombe there are great views of the main beach which I love because when the sunsets it is just beautiful. Another factor that I loved about Woolacombe was how well suited it is for family's with many facilities including amusements and ice cream shops. It really is I think a great place to have a family holiday and I would really recommend it.

Summary: A wonderful holiday destination for the family but expensive.
