Could this be the ulti-mutt in luxurious getaways? This extraordinary escape is ideal for large groups looking to spend time on the North Devon coast with up to three furry friends. In a unique location with stunning sea views, the property has a wood burner, hot tub, cinema room and games room, plus a huge, enclosed garden and a 2.5-acre dog-exercise field.
Offering superb modern style and an array of practical comforts, the house has generous space both inside and out. The open-plan main living area features vast windows that take advantage of the incredible views, and an array of plush seating, a wood burner and Smart TV. Formal dining is to one side of the room, with a kitchen – plus breakfast table – opposite. Catering for large numbers, there are three electric ovens, two fridges and two freezers. For a quiet evening, head to the snug or line up a movie in the cinema room, or else challenge each other to pool or table football in the games room. Upstairs, seven super-king-size bedrooms continue the luxurious theme, each with an en-suite. Five have access to a balcony with ocean views. The house sits on 2.5 acres of land and boasts a 60-metre-wide garden with a vast lawn and a patio. Lounge in the sun or grill something on the BBQ, relishing the coastal vistas. Alternatively, soak in the hot tub, or play with your pups in the adjacent exercise field. Parking is available for up to 12 cars.
The whole beach at Westward Ho!, less than a mile away, welcomes mutts from October to April, while its northern section is dog-friendly all year round. Just 5 miles away is the village of Horns Cross, for access to the woodland walks of Peppercombe Valley and a secluded, pebble beach.
