This idyllic coastal retreat conveniently located on the coastal road to Woolacombe Bay is well placed for exploring North Devon with your faithful hounds by your side. With three bedrooms, there’s plenty of room for families or couples and their friends to spread out. You have walks right on your doorstep as the Tarka Trail backs on to the property, while some of the best surfing beaches in the country are also close by.

Inside, this stylish property has an open-plan living area to maximise the space. With bi-folding doors leading to the garden, you can let the outside in on sunny days to create an even lighter and brighter space. Grab a quick bite to eat at the breakfast bar in the kitchen before collaring your furry friends for their morning workout. There’s a wet room next to the front door – perfect for those days when you come straight off the beach with sandy toes or paws. At the end of an amazing day, devour sausages cooked on the gas BBQ in the charming enclosed garden before retiring upstairs to bed for a blissful night’s sleep. If you’re bringing bicycles, surf boards or pet accessories with you, they can be stored securely in the garden.

There’s so much in Devon that will get the paw print of approval. Walk along the dramatic cliffs on the South West Coast Path or go for a doggy paddle on the golden sandy beach at Woolacombe, 2 miles away. The popular seaside town of Ilfracombe (4 miles) can be reached by car or on foot via the Tarka Trail. Go mutts for Damien Hirst’s famous Verity statue and drop into a dog-friendly pub for lunch. Experienced surfers will love Croyde (5.5 miles) and Saunton (7.5 miles), two of the best UK beaches to catch some waves.
