This seaside retreat has been furnished to a delightful standard, offering the perfect bolt hole for a family or couple alike, with the beach within walking distance of your front door.
Overlooking the stretching sands at Westward Ho!, this charming coastal cottage ticks all the boxes for a furry family getaway. Just half a mile’s scramble away, feet and paws will adore the unique grassy plains and wild dunes of Northam Burrows Country Park – waggy-tailed ones will need to be on their leads at this Site of Special Scientific Interest because of all the roaming sheep and wild horses. Join the South West Coast Path for more bracing seaside adventures. The beach at Instow (5 miles) is wondrous for walkies at low tide, with idyllic views across to Appledore (3 miles). A must-play for enthusiasts, the monumental Royal North Devon Golf Club (1.5 miles) has the oldest course in England.
Inside, the cottage is bright and elegant, superbly blending Georgian, nautical and Art Deco styles. The lounge is a splendid, cosy space with stunning coastal views and quaint period features. The kitchen is sweet and sleek, bright with white tiles and limewashed wood. The dining room and conservatory marry grace, old stone and maritime touches for chilled-out meals and bright coffee mornings. Upstairs, the master king-size bedroom elevates blue sea views to magnificent, and the twin is sandy and tranquil. Soothe tired limbs in the blissful bathroom, and relax with a BBQ on the enclosed decked area outside.
Exploring this unique landscape is an utter joy, for humans and canines alike. Step back in time at unspoilt Clovelly (12 miles), and run wild on beaches at Saunton (19 miles), Croyde (21 miles), Putsborough, Woolacombe and Ilfracombe (23 miles) (check seasonal doggy restrictions). Dogs and humans of all ages will love exploring the Tarka Trail, which passes through Instow and Bideford (4 miles). Sensitive noses will be intoxicated at dramatic RHS Rosemoor (12 miles), and kids will love The Milky Way Adventure Park (10 miles) and the Big Sheep (3 miles). Adventures await!
