Every great journey starts with a dream, and ours began with a simple vision—to create a family-run business that helps other families, couples and friends make unforgettable memories along the beautiful North Devon coast.
At Tide & Stay, family is at the heart of everything we do. We understand how precious time together is, and we know that the best holidays aren't just about where you stay—they're about the moments you share, the places you discover and the memories you create together.
Tide & Stay was founded with one goal: to offer more than just a holiday run-of-the-mill accommodation.
We wanted to create welcoming spaces where guests could truly relax, reconnect and enjoy everything North Devon has to offer, while giving holiday home owners complete confidence that their properties are being cared for with the same attention and dedication we would give our own.
As a family-run business, we believe the little things make the biggest difference. From a warm welcome and personal recommendations to ensuring every lodge is beautifully presented, we take pride in making every guest feel at home from the moment they arrive.
We fell in love with North Devon for its breathtaking coastline, golden beaches, picturesque villages and friendly communities. It's a place where every day brings a new adventure, whether that's surfing at Woolacombe, exploring Ilfracombe Harbour, walking the South West Coast Path or discovering the beauty of Exmoor National Park.
Our passion for this incredible part of the country inspired us to create Tide & Stay, so we could help others experience everything that makes North Devon such a special place to visit.
Every lodge in our collection has been carefully selected to provide guests with a genuine home-from-home experience.
Whether you're enjoying a family holiday, celebrating a special occasion, planning a romantic escape, or simply taking time to unwind, we want your stay to be as comfortable, relaxing and memorable as possible.
We're always on hand with local recommendations, support throughout your stay and friendly advice to help you make the very best of your holiday.
Tide & Stay is also passionate about supporting fellow holiday home owners.
We know that every property represents years of hard work, investment and pride.
That's why we treat every lodge we manage as though it were our own, providing professional marketing, guest communication, booking management and property support with honesty, care and attention to detail.
Our success is built on creating happy guests, supporting our owners and building long-term relationships based on trust.
As our business has grown, so has our vision.
We're incredibly proud to introduce Tide & Stay Inn at Watermouth Lodges.
A place where families, holidaymakers, local residents and visitors can come together to enjoy great food, drinks and entertainment in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
From our family-friendly bar and restaurant to the outdoor swimming pool, indoor soft play, adventure playground, fire pits, live sports and entertainment, Tide & Stay Inn has been created with the same values that inspired Tide & Stay from the very beginning: bringing people together and creating lasting memories.
Although Tide & Stay continues to grow, one thing will never change—our commitment to putting people first.
As a family business, we genuinely care about every guest who stays with us and every owner who trusts us with their property. We're passionate about delivering exceptional service, creating memorable holidays and sharing the very best of North Devon with everyone who visits.
Thank you for supporting our journey. Whether you're booking your first stay, returning for another holiday or partnering with us as a holiday home owner, we look forward to welcoming you into the Tide & Stay family.
Together, let's create memories that last a lifetime.
