This spacious modern house in the lively village of Braunton, just 2 miles from the vast expanse of Saunton Sands, is perfectly located for glorious, year-round walkies with your favourite pups. The stylishly furnished holiday home sleeps six guests and two canine companions, with room for your pets to play in the enclosed patio or snooze in front of the wood burner after a day’s adventures. Saunton Sands offers superb surfing and swimming, while foot and cycle paths in the lovely surrounding countryside include the long-distance Tarka Trail, which runs through Braunton.
An entrance hall leads to a light and airy, open-plan living space overlooking the patio, with comfortable sofas and a wood burner. The delightful contemporary kitchen and dining area are a lovely spot for families or friends to chat over a leisurely meal. Upstairs are three charming bedrooms: a king-size, a double and a twin, with Velux windows, plus a family bathroom. Outside, the patio has pretty shrubs and garden furniture to seat six. Your four-legged friends can explore their new surroundings safely while you sit back and relax.
The golden beach at family-friendly Saunton Sands (2.5 miles) has food outlets, beach shops, and toilets. Play catch the stick with your furry pals and splash through the shallows together as you walk the 3-mile length of beautiful sand. Keen to learn the art of surfing? Surf schools here and on neighbouring Croyde beach (5 miles) will teach novices how to ride the waves. Braunton is home to the Museum of British Surfing, along with a good range of shops and restaurants. Enjoy unspoiled country and woodland views along the Tarka Trail, while your faithful hounds investigate fascinating new smells.
