Byron Woolacombe Holidays

10/09/2026

The luxury of having nowhere to be in a hurry… 🍂

Autumn might just be our favourite time of year to step out onto the South West Coast Path.
The summer crowds have eased, the air feels clearer and the landscape begins to turn beautifully wild and golden. There’s time to walk a little more slowly, stop whenever the view asks you to and simply follow the coastline for as long as you please.

With spectacular stretches of the path close to Byron, an autumn escape makes it wonderfully easy to leave the car behind and discover North Devon on foot.

🌊 September swells are here…

With warmer water, quieter beaches and the first autumn swells beginning to roll in, September is one of our favourite times to surf in North Devon.

From mellow beginner-friendly waves at Woolacombe and golden-hour glides at Saunton, to sheltered Putsborough when it’s blowing a hoolie, and Croyde for those who like their waves big, fast and a little dumpy!

Swipe through for four of our favourite local surf spots. Which one are you paddling out at? 🏄‍♀️

Staying at Byron puts you within easy reach of them all. Book your September escape directly through the link in our bio.

Always check the forecast, tides and lifeguard guidance before entering the water.

Is there anything quite like the North Devon coast in early autumn? 💙

These gorgeous drone shots were captured by one of our owners at Rockham One last weekend, and just look at that view across Woolacombe Bay.

The air feels beautifully clear and pure at this time of year, the light is softer, and the coastline seems to stretch on forever. Autumn by the sea really is something special.

Who else would rather be here? 🌊

Wondering what an October half-term escape with Byron might actually look like? 🍂🌊

Think quieter beaches, autumn waves, Halloween adventures, wildlife spotting and hot chocolate after a windswept walk.

There are family days out when you want them, miles of coastline when you don’t, and Byron’s indoor pool, sauna and games room waiting when the Devon weather becomes a little dramatic.

We’ve planned seven days of coastal adventures to help you make the most of your stay, from surfing and seal spotting to Halloween fun and a silent disco beach clean.

Swipe through for inspiration, save this post for later, then discover the complete recommended itinerary through the link in our bio to our blogs section!

October half-term short stays are also available!

Turn the sound on for a little Woolacombe calm.

The final weeks of summer have their own rhythm: the beach begins to quieten, the waves roll in and mornings feel made for taking things slowly.

Early autumn is almost here, bringing peaceful beach walks, time in the sea and the freedom to enjoy Woolacombe without the summer rush.

Stay for a few days. Swim, surf, breathe it all in and let the coast set the pace.

September is just around the corner bringing quieter beaches, beautiful Atlantic swells and a little more room to find your perfect wave.

Bring your board or book a lesson when you arrive, head to the wonderful team to get your Byron discount on any surf equipment.

Christmas by the coast ✨

Swap the Christmas rush for quiet beach walks, bracing sea air and cosy evenings overlooking Woolacombe Bay.

Our spacious coastal apartments offer room to celebrate together, with selected dog-friendly stays, beautiful sea views and Byron’s pool, sauna, gym and games room to enjoy throughout your break.

Come for Christmas, stay for that wonderfully peaceful stretch between Boxing Day and New Year, when nobody quite knows what day it is, and another walk on the beach feels like an excellent idea.
