Overview
Property code: OC-ROYSTA

This delightful former pub offers a welcoming and comfortable base for families and friends to explore the beaches, landscapes and attractions of the South Devon coast. Situated on the mouth of the Teign Estuary, Shaldon is a sleepy village scattered over a low hill, with a sheltered beach and thriving food scene. Popular with walkers, the South West Coast Path passes through the village and there are numerous lovely trails to explore. Hop on England’s oldest passenger ferry to Teignmouth to spend the day on the lovely sandy beaches and Victorian pier, and get active with various water sports. Shaldon is a great base for visiting the coastline, beaches, and wildlife of the English Riviera, which encompasses the coastal resorts of Torquay (6.5 miles), Paignton (10 miles) and Brixham (18 miles).

This is a beautiful three-storey property that’s light and spacious, and renovated with exquisite attention to detail throughout. The front door leads you into an elegant hallway with space to hang coats and store boots, and a downstairs cloakroom. The kitchen/diner is bright and airy with a long dining table and double patio doors leading to the courtyard garden. There’s an elegant lounge with a selection of comfortable seating gathered around a log effect electric fire, patio doors leading to the courtyard, and an open archway to the snug with more seating and a TV and entertainment corner. The first floor is home to three stylish bedrooms – a master with a king-size bed and en-suite bathroom, a double, and a room with twin zip-and-lock beds that can be converted to a super-king-size on request – along with a family bathroom. The top floor houses a large bedroom with a king-size bed and a single bed, along with a cosy snug featuring a TV and table football game, along with bean bags.

At the rear of the property, there’s an enclosed courtyard garden with an outdoor dining area and a hot tub for relaxing under the stars. There’s also a convenient hosepipe for washing off muddy boots and sandy beachwear.

What a fantastic holiday home which was like a tardis, with so much room for all of our guests. Even a friend of ours, who has a beach hut nearby, was amazed at the size, and quality of the house. We are also pleased, as my mum left behind a hearing aid that was returned without fuss.

I requested bedroom 3 to be set up as two single beds rather than one double, and my request was acknowledged in your email dated 7th February. However, this had not been done when we arrived. The two adults who had planned to occupy bedroom 3 on the first floor (one of whom has Parkinsons Disease with reduced mobility so climbing stairs is difficRead moreult) had to use the loft bedroom up another flight of stairs and use a small single child's bed. I was disappointed that the confirmed arrangements had not been actioned. Hide

This property is top class with ample supplies of towels, kitchen utensils, seating and very comfortable beds. The location is ideal for walks, eating/drinking out and a short ferry ride over to Teignmouth.

We were delighted with this property and it was so well situated in Shaldon village, close to several excellent restaurants and cafes. The family very much enjoyed the hot tub too. It was perfect for access to the beach and ferry over to Teignmouth.
