Property code: OC-SILVBI

Make the most of Devon’s dog-friendly beaches with a stay in this wonderful coastal accommodation, a modern space that always welcomes canine companions. A perfect place for the whole pack, the property sleeps six guests and two dogs across two stunning storeys. Whilst adults and kids can enjoy the holiday home’s ever-comfortable interiors, adjacent garage/games room and excellent appliances, your four-pawed pals can make the very most of the sprawling lawn and patio garden accessible at the rear. This outdoor space is entirely enclosed, perfect for even the most cunning of escape-prone pets!

You won’t feel on top of one another when staying in this extremely spacious holiday home, even when staying with larger breeds of dogs. The extensive lounge/kitchen/diner provides plenty of space for your pups to position their favourite beds and blankets from home, although we’re sure you’ll spot them sidling up to you as you sit back and relax on the L-shaped sofa. A set of French doors in the lounge area provides direct access to the outdoor space, an ideal spot for chilling on summer evenings. As day turns to night and your pets doze off, find the first of three bedrooms, a light and bright king-size, right here on the ground floor. Two final bedrooms, another king and a twin, can be found on the first floor.

Sniff out adventure around Westward Ho! Beach (1 mile), a wide sandy expanse that’s ever-popular with dog walkers and families year-round. Walkies are always welcomed on the wild dunes of the Northam Burrows Country Park (1.5 miles), and you’ll find large areas of the beach with no pet restrictions in the summer months. A waymarked walking path that’s filled with awe-inspiring scenery and plenty of wildlife to chase is the South West Coast Path, an extensive route that’s less than a mile away.

It is a lovely spacious modern property in a quiet location with access to great walks and the coast path. Everything you need is provided. Utility room with washer/dryer really nice and big garage with table tennis is a bonus. Garden is great and secure for dog to run around. Definitely will recommend to others and hope to return.

Silver Birches is a lovely house, well laid out, great lighting, comfy beds and very warm with the underfloor heating! Garden is perfect for a dog. Location is terrific with some stunning walks within an hour drive or nearer. The kitchen was very well equipped and everything was so sensibly set up, more so than our own home. We hope to be back.

Lovely holiday let. Everything was of a good standard and clean. Loads of storage space throughout the property. Local to beach and not far from local shops and supermarkets. Would happily rent again when the opportunity arises. We also enjoyed the use of the table tennis which the kids loved, but isn't listed on the property details. Thank yoRead moreu Hide

The house was spacious, clean and well equipped. We were disappointed with the poor Wi-Fi which was frustrating. A washing line would be a good addition to hang wet suits but otherwise very well equipped and nicely presented. Great to have the table tennis table and electric charger an added bonus.

Gorgeous property in fabulous location. Spotlessly clean on arrival - comfy beds and quality linen/towels. Kitchen better equipped than mine at home - just missing some oven gloves which I'm sure will be rectified for the next visitor. Garden was large and very secure with high walls and fencing which was perfect for our cocker spaniel. Easy toRead more walk to town and the sea front, but prepare yourself for the steep walk back. Worth it for the fabulous views though. Would certainly return. Hide

Property was exactly as advertised. Beautifully maintained to a high standard. I couldnt think of any amenity or piece of equipment that wasnt provided. Its in a lovely quiet road but easily accessible to many local beaches and attractions. Its a steep but walkable distance to westward Ho beach. Having a secure garden is paramount for us when looRead moreking at accommodation as we own a husky so solid 6ft height fencing is a minimum requirement for us. A very relaxed and enjoyable stay which was exactly what we wanted - I even read a book from the selection provided. Hide

Great location, very quiet, really enjoy the open plan lifestyle that the property offers, completely different to our own home and a lovely thing to experience for a short time. Our 3rd visit to this area, 2nd to Silver Birches, wed prefer to pay a bit more to stay in a nicer quality place.
