Ideal for family holidays away with the pup, this cosy cottage sits in the pretty East Devon village of Branscombe and is within walking distance of local amenities and a beautiful beach. Spend time exploring the coast, throwing sticks and building sandcastles at this countryside walker’s paradise.
Comforting tones, pillowy furnishings and cosy corners welcome you to relax and rejuvenate with your guests in tow. Hang up your dog leads and kick off your walking boots in the handy hallway, before heading upstairs to a cosy, dual-aspect living room with plenty of room for your pup to sprawl out and get comfy. Light the wood burner-effect electric fire and read a good book or sit on the balcony where you can enjoy country views and a glass of red. Prepare feasts of joy for six and serve at the large dining table, fit for socialising into the night. When the group is dog-tired, stairs lead to three pretty bedrooms: one twin, one single and one double with rolling landscapes to admire while sipping your morning coffee.
Your woofer will love doing their early stretches with walkies down to the beach. A direct path leads straight from the property and has rural views at every step. Branscombe Beach is a long, shingle beach - perfect for four-legged friends to run off some energy. Rock pools, painted beach huts and beachside cafes boast a memorable family day out, and it’s one of Devon’s top tail-wagging destinations. Believed to be the longest village in the country, Branscombe offers sweeping streets heading to the sea, lined with rows of flower-decked thatched cottages and historic buildings. Both owned by the National Trust, the Old Bakery and Forge can be visited in this sleepy village.
