Set in the sweet coastal village of Churston Ferrers, 1.5 miles from beautiful Brixham, this sweet abode will have couples and canines craving their vacations. There’s a superb hound-happy pub within a mile and another just over a mile away. Brixham boasts a weekly market, a breathtaking Nature Reserve, Art Deco lido, marvellous Heritage Museum and myriad independent shops, galleries, restaurants and canine-cordial pubs. Follow the Broadsands circular dog walk via delightful Elberry, Fishcombe and Churston Coves (1/2/2.5 miles). Shoalstone Beach is home to the open-air swimming pool, and St Mary’s Bay is overflowing with fossils (both 3 miles).

 

Across the uneven cobbled courtyard and through the porch you’ll find a charming blend of sweet nautical brio and sleek contemporary comfort. After sparkling days of Devon adventure through town and village, city, country and coast, relax around the wood burner in the cosy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with its sofa, bay window seat, breakfast bar and lovely exposed stone wall. Prepare sublime seafood feasts and savour them at the table or in the enclosed courtyard. After soaks in the upstairs shower and starlit nightcaps, drift up to your splendid king-size bedroom with its original fireplace and burnished floorboards for delightful dreams of tomorrow.

 

Find more fabulous fur-friendly beaches at secluded Oyster Cove (2.5 miles), sheltered Fairy Cove at Paignton (4 miles), Torbay (5 miles), Torquay (7 miles), Beacon Cove (7.5 miles), picturesque Man Sands and shingly and unspoilt Scabbacombe Sands (both 5.5 miles). Explore the smorgasbord of independent shops, eateries, galleries, museums and pubs of Torquay, Exeter (27 miles), Paignton, Kingswear and delightful Dartmouth (both 5 miles). Totnes (8 miles) has some wonderful antiques emporia and alternative shops. Teignmouth, Dawlish and Salcombe (17/20/27 miles) have gorgeous Georgian architecture, rock pools, black swans, sunny seafronts and sumptuous local seafood. Scintillating memories await.
