Get all of your loved ones together and escape to this elegant two-storey home in the fabulous coastal village of Mortehoe. Sleeping eight people over four bedrooms and welcoming two faithful friends, this sleek home is the ideal accommodation options for families or groups of friends who want to enjoy a little style when they travel. You’ll love the exquisite design touches, and your pups will adore having the freedom to roam around the property’s pretty, enclosed garden.

Step inside and you’ll find a bright and airy property that’s bathed in a beautiful palette of co-ordinated colours throughout. Leave your outdoor gear in the tiled entrance porch and head down the hallway to make yourself in home of one of the two fantastic living spaces. When it’s time to eat, make a beeline for the bespoke kitchen. This wonderfully sociable place has a central island unit with bar stools, which is great if you like to chat to your loved ones while you cook. Alternatively, head out to the enclosed garden at the rear of the property and dine alfresco on the patio area. The garden is fully enclosed, so your pups can safely potter around while you eat. After dinner, head to the raised deck in the front garden to soak up the sea views. When the day is done you’ll find four beautifully decorated bedrooms on the first floor.

Your canine companions are going to love that you can access the South West Coast Path at the end of the street. Enjoy breathtaking views across to Lundy Island while you walk the 2.5 miles via Morte Point to Rockham Bay - a secluded, tidal beach that’s dog-friendly all year round. Or pack up a picnic and head to the impressive Woolacombe Beach (2 miles).

Overall, the house was lovely and spacious - an opinion shared by all of us staying there. Front and back gardens to sit in were a bonus. Plenty of parking space. Virtually on the coast path and eateries just a few yards away.

A brilliant family get together from Bristol, Spain and Portshed. Thank you so much for the use of your lovely spacious practical homely house. The decor is very appealing and the use of the front garden, back garden furniture and reading in the front porch was very enjoyable. Others enjoyed Sky sports with the cricket. We walked to the lighthouRead morese, Mark Point, Woolacombe multiple times and the coast path from Puttsborough round to Baggy Point. We found the Tunnel beaches at Ilfracombe very unusual.
