Pets and owners alike will enjoy the touches of luxury in this superb retreat overlooking the delightful coastal village of Instow. The secluded, stone-built property sleeps eight guests across four bedrooms and welcomes two four-legged friends. Set high up on the hills, it has wonderful, far-reaching views across the scenic Devon coast and magnificent Exmoor. Surrounded by extensive gardens and with a private hot tub, this outstanding holiday home is the perfect spot for families or friends to relax in glorious surroundings, along with their canine companions. Golden, dog-friendly beaches are within easy reach and the long-distance Tarka Trail runs through Instow.
Beautifully furnished in contemporary style, the light and airy property houses a splendid, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with masses of floor space for your pets. A timber framed conservatory overlooking the garden provides sumptuous seating, a wood burner and Smart TV. The charming dining area also has a cosy wood burner, while the kitchen features a traditional AGA. Also on this floor are a wet room and games room. Upstairs, discover four delightful bedrooms – two super-king-size rooms and two king-sizes – and a superb family bathroom. Outside, enjoy a soak in the luxurious hot tub while your pets explore the large gardens, and enjoy al fresco dining in the pretty seating area. There is private parking for four cars.
Just 1.5 miles away, pretty Instow, where the rivers Taw and Torridge meet, has a colourful waterfront with bistros and dog-friendly pubs. The sandy beach is perfect for paddles and, while peak-season dog restrictions apply in some sections, they are welcome in other areas all year round. Four-legged pals can join you on the ferry across the estuary to picturesque Appledore, home to the North Devon Maritime Museum, where you can learn more about this historic village.
