This stunning coastal loft apartment nestles in the grounds of the owner’s impressive home, and boasts cosy and comfortable accommodation together with fabulous sea views.

Enjoy a slice of coastal living and embark on a romantic retreat by the seaside with your waggy-tailed third wheel. Admire the sea views from the gorgeous, glass-fronted patio area where your pup can sniff the sea air whilst you enjoy sundowners and treats. With the South West Coast Path running close to home, there’s no shortage of places to harness up and embark on your morning walkies and to jump in for a refreshing dip in the ocean.

Steps lead to your front door, behind which the beautiful loft apartment awaits. Tucked beside the owner’s luxurious home, your privacy is assured once you head inside. Open-plan and bursting with charm, the living space has quirky sloped ceilings, lots of natural light and calming tranquil tones throughout. Having left boots and balls behind in the entrance hall, let your pup sleep at your feet while taking in the views through the French doors which lead to the Juliet balcony. You don’t have to stray far for treats as the kitchen shares the living space, it’s a snug yet stylish area with a contemporary feel and all you need to feed hungry guests. Dine alfresco on the fabulous patio which treats you to sea views and provides pups with somewhere to chase their tail. After a peaceful sleep in the charming double bedroom with a sloping ceiling and en-suite shower room, switch on the Smart TV for a lazy morning under the covers.

Treat your third wheel to a hike on the South West Coast Path and take in fantastic ocean views of the dramatic coast or wander Paignton Pier and the local beach during winter months. For a summer beach day spent scattering pawprints on the sand, visit the beach at Babbacombe and enjoy sea swims and treats from the cafe.

A friendly welcome on arrival from the owners who are conveniently next door (not that we had to bother them about anything!)

The view is superb and The Lodge was spotless with everything thing we needed and more (flowers were a lovely touch). Milk on arrival, along with tea bags and coffee, meant we could have a much needed cuppa. Access is a little difficult as the property is at the top of a one way street. From Upper Headland Park Road, we found it easier to turn intoRead more Upper Penns Road and going up the hill to access the drive. You will need to reverse in as its a little tight but easy once you know how. Hide

Lovely holiday cant wait to come back. Only negative was no bus stop near by its a 15 minute walk down a hill. Obviously a lot harder coming back up if you have any difficulty walking. That said its worth it as the property is perfect and has Amazing views. Full credit to the owners they are friendly without being intrusive.
