Furnished to an impeccable standard, this beautiful detached home in Westward Ho! offers style and sophistication for the perfect coastal getaway. Sleeping six people over three bedrooms and welcoming two waggy-tailed friends, it’s the perfect retreat for families or groups of friends who want to explore the Devonshire coast with their pups by their side. You will love soaking in the property’s hot tub after a refreshing day exploring the South West Coast Path, and your dogs will adore the freedom of the enclosed garden.

Step inside this stylish property and you’ll find a reverse-level layout that brings out the best in the building’s design. Venture upstairs to the first floor and you’ll discover a spacious and light open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with bi-folding doors that open out onto a lovely glass-fronted balcony. Cook up a storm for your loved ones and then enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony. Alternatively, head outside to the enclosed garden and fire up the BBQ and enjoy an al fresco dinner while your dogs potter around the lawn. After dinner, treat yourself to a dip in the hot tub before retiring to the lounge to watch TV or heading to one of the three sumptuous bedrooms on the ground floor.

Pups can enjoy any part of the beautiful beach at Westward Ho! (1.5 miles) during the winter, but during the summer months, it’s best to walk along Northam Burrows Road and enter the beach over the walkway at Pebble Ridge Bridge. For a day out with a difference, you can take your happy hounds to explore the carriage museum, gardens and estate at the National Trust’s Arlington Court (17 miles). Over the summer months, you can enjoy a snack on the patio at the attraction’s pretty cafe, where dogs are made welcome.
