Set over three floors, this recently renovated quirky four-bedroom cottage offers gorgeous interiors flooded by natural light and flexible sleeping arrangements perfect for any coastal explorers. The small fishing village of Shaldon retains much of its iconic history, boasting a maze of idyllic narrow winding streets, thatched cottages and period homes. Meander along part of the South West Coast Path to admire some breathtaking views; the ancient Templar Way tidal walk (7.5 miles) covers a wide range of scenery from open moorland, woodland, meadowland and historical tracks. Through an original smugglers tunnel, enjoy a leisurely swim or explore plenty of rock pools at Ness Cove Beach 1 mile away, a picturesque, secluded beach completely enclosed by the shelter of the cliffs above. Enjoy watching the escapades of mischievous meerkats, squirrel monkeys and plenty of other endangered species at Shaldon Wildlife Trust 1 mile from the property.
NEW KITCHEN (2024)
The property's quirky layout involves two separate entrances on two different levels; one via the ground floor front porch, and one on the upper level through the back garden gate. The entrance porch on the ground floor provides ample storage space for beach equipment and leads onto a newly fitted family bathroom which also houses a handy washing machine. You’ll also find a twin bedroom with a super-king-size zip-and-link bed on this level. The first floor comprises three spacious bedrooms, one twin bedroom featuring two single beds and two twin bedrooms featuring zip-and-link beds, as well as a recently refurbished family bathroom. The final second floor opens out onto a loft-style dining room, bathed in natural light from the large Velux windows in the eaves, and benefits from a large dining table with plenty of chairs. Partitioned away from the dining room is an inviting brand new kitchen (2024) kitted out with everything you need to cater. The triple-aspect living room has three sofas, a Smart TV and DVD player plus a library of traditional games and DVD's.
The newly fitted stable door in the dining room provides direct access out to the south-facing decked terrace, complete with plenty of patio seating for al fresco dining, leading down onto a private enclosed gravelled garden area for you to explore.
