Boasting windswept walks across the rugged South West Coast Path just a stick''s throw from the doorstep, this stylish holiday cottage is the ultimate seaside getaway perfect for families eager to uncover the beauty of Devon and Cornwall with their canine companion.
From sunrise to sunset, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a haven of tranquillity. The impressive, high, vaulted ceiling creates a sense of space whilst the roaring wood burner sets a truly warming ambience; your four-pawed pal won''t be able to resist curling up on the hearth. The elegance of the kitchen will inspire you to get creative before soothing weary walking muscles on the sumptuous sofas; on a fine evening, throw open the patio doors to unwind with a fresh, countryside breeze. The charming en-suite super-king-size, en-suite king-size and twin bedroom offer tail-wagging views to wake up to. Soak up the fresh air by dining alfresco on the balcony, slipping into the hot tub or enjoying a glass of something chilled on the terrace. Being enclosed, children and four-legged friends can roam the lawn to their heart''s content. This retreat has a private driveway for up to six cars.
The coastal village of Hartland offers a true escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Take the lead to the idyllic Hartland Quay (3.5 miles), an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and skim stones in the crystal waters before following the South West Coast Path to reach a picturesque waterfall and tail-wagging views across the coast. Answer the call of the sea by treating your pup to an afternoon of getting their paws sandy at Widemouth Bay Beach, 18 miles away, before heading to the seaside paradise of Bude, 15 miles away, to find plenty of exciting salty smells along its magnificent cliff-top walk around the headland.
