A holiday by the seaside wouldn’t be right without little ones and four-pawed family members by your side. Embark on a beach-filled holiday to Torquay and settle in at this charming abode where there are plenty of handy spaces including a utility room and garage – great for sandy adventurers. Walk the South West Coast Path and visit family-friendly attractions close to home before making yourself comfortable in the inviting living space.

The open-plan-living style is great for families and for keeping an eye on the antics of cheeky younger guests. Perfectly positioned around the electric fire, sofas and chairs welcome you to melt down in this light space whilst those with tufty ears curl up on the rug. Little ones will be kept entertained on the games console and you can all enjoy al fresco meals and titbits on the wraparound, raised, decked terrace reached by steps. Get cooking in the brilliantly bright kitchen where there are spaces to chop, slice and lay out tasty treats. Make the most of the garage and handy utility room to towel down soggy fur and store beach gear, and enjoy peaceful nights resting up in one of three bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has two bunk beds and is great for younger ones whilst the king-size has a private balcony.

Leave the car behind, grab the lead and head out for waterside walkies from your door. Wander a stretch of the South West Coast Path for spectacular views and some of the most scenic stick-chasing spots your pups have ever sniffed out. The beach at Oddicombe (1 mile) welcomes dogs during winter months whilst at Babbacombe (0.5 miles), they are welcomed all year round so all the family can enjoy a day by the sea.

Excellent location, very comfortable and quiet. Within walking distance of Babacombe beach, cliff walk and pubs and restaurants. Our dog loved her walks and a bonus was the field behind the property. Would highly recommend.

The house was great, perfect size for our family. The location was perfect for all of our daily activities on the coast and moors. There was one bit about the house that made a big difference and that was the back gate in the garden onto the cricket pitch, cliff walks and also down to Babbacombe beach. With a dog this made life really easy for walkRead mores and great views. Hide
