Property code: OC-T28909

This romantic retreat boasts a prime riverside position in the idyllic village of Lynmouth, within beautiful Exmoor National Park. The property is perfect for couples looking to explore this breathtaking landscape with their waggy-tailed companion, with coastal, countryside, and woodland walks directly from the cottage. Nearby doggy days out include the sandy beaches of Woolacombe (21 miles) and Saunton Sands (25.5 miles), and the Victorian town of Ilfracombe (19.5 miles).

The cosy cottage seamlessly blends contemporary interiors with characterful original features. The decor is neutral, and a plethora of creature comforts ensure maximum relaxation. After a long dog walk, chill out in the welcoming lounge/diner, where you can stretch out on the sofa to watch the Smart TV whilst the woofer warms their paws by the wood burner-effect electric fire. A cute bistro table by the window is the perfect spot for romantic dinners for two, which you can whip up in the separate, well-appointed kitchen. When day turns to night, retire to the elegant double bedroom, which is decorated in tones to reflect the surrounding landscape. A refreshing shower room completes the accommodation. There is no outside space, however, a pretty harbour is on your doorstep, and you’ll find a paw-friendly beach within 0.5 miles.

Let Rover lead the way on a stroll around Lynmouth, popping into the many woof-welcoming shops and exploring the bustling harbour. From Lynmouth, you and your furry companion can climb aboard the cliff railway to explore Lynmouth’s twin village, Lynton, with its historic buildings and cosy pubs. A short walk from Lynton brings you to the dramatic landscape of Valley of Rocks, where you can enjoy bracing clifftop walks whilst marvelling at the jaw-dropping views and abundant wildlife. For a day at the seaside, the paw-friendly, sandy beach of Woolacombe is 21 miles away.

We had a lovely stay at The Bolt. Bed was super comfy and we slept well every night. All the little touches made the trip very special including the binoculars and umbrella! Thanks for having us.

What a stunning little cottage, ideally located, tastefully decorated and was an absolute lifesaver during last weeks heatwave because the cottage stayed lovely and cool, which was very welcome on our return from our adventures every day. Will definitely be recommending this accommodation to our family and friends. Thanks for an amazing stay

Absolutely beautiful place, with literally everything you need (and more the human and doggy treats were a lovely touch!). Immaculately clean, just perfect!!! Dont let the lack of parking stop you - theres on street parking just down the road, three very close car parks and for off loading your bags etc you can literally stop directly opposite theRead more property for the 5 mins itll take you, and then move your car to a parking space. Owners were very accommodating, letting us know we could have an early check in and also letting us take two dogs. Despite some reviews, there were two adults, one small dog and one large dog and it was a perfect size. We fell in love with The Bolt and Lynmouth at New Year was fantastic and very pretty. Hide

An immaculately presented cottage which has a mix of cosy and modern vibes. Superbly equipped in every room. Very comfortable stay, and thoroughly enjoyed the location so close to the seaside. The dog enjoyed her treats (and we enjoyed the 'human treats" too!); it's those little touches that make a huge difference. Will be looking to re-book. ThankRead more you. Hide
