This impressive contemporary house high above the village of Woolacombe is perfect for families or friends who want their pets to share a happy holiday. Sleeping 12 guests and two dogs, this spacious, detached property with wonderful sea views is just 0.5 miles from the beach, a huge expanse of golden sands where canine chums are welcome all year round. The village has a friendly vibe, with shops, restaurants and great dog-friendly pubs.
A long flight of steps leads up to the first-floor entrance of this beautifully furnished property. In the living room, sumptuous sofas are an invitation to sit back and enjoy magnificent sea and countryside views. There’s a cosy wood burner and glass doors opening on to a large, decked balcony where people and pets can relax in the sunshine. The lower level houses a light and spacious kitchen/dining area, while spread across the first and second floors are six inviting bedrooms. These include two splendid king-sizes, both with private balconies and wonderful sea views. Two shower rooms and a family bathroom complete the layout. Outside, pups can stretch their legs in the pretty, enclosed rear garden.
Woolacombe is renowned as a family beach, with delights for all ages, from surfing to exploring rock pools and walking the shoreline while your furry friends race across the sand into the sea. Even in the summer, when seasonal restrictions apply, there is always quiet space along the 3-mile strand. A wealth of splendid walks along the spectacular South West Coast Path includes the 5-mile circular route to historic Mortehoe. Have a well-earned drink at one of the village’s dog-friendly pubs, not forgetting your thirsty canine companions, and drop into the fascinating local museum for a glimpse of North Devon in times past, when smugglers plied their trade.
