Property code: OC-STHROW

This large, luxury family home, updated in autumn 2021, is a great choice for family or friends to holiday together – perhaps celebrating a special birthday or anniversary. It is close to the pretty village of Mortehoe, where there are pubs and a village shop, and a mile further takes you to the fabulous coastal resort of Woolacombe, with more shops and places to eat and, of course, a 3-mile stretch of golden sand that’s a favourite of surfers and families alike. From just at the end of the road, keen walkers can access the South West Coast Path.  There is a hidden gem, called Grunta beach which is only a 10 minute walk from the property, dog friendly all year round, ideal for rock-pooling and at low tide is a lovely sandy beach perfect for body boarding, swimming and surfing. 

Bright and airy, this welcoming two-storey property has high quality furnishings and co-ordinated colours throughout, as well as two fantastic living spaces making this gorgeous home from home for you to enjoy coming back to after a busy day exploring. From a prettily tiled entrance porch with hanging space and storage for muddy boots, the hallway leads you to an open-plan dining room with comfortable sofas at the far end, an ornamental fireplace and glazed doors to the garden. The bespoke kitchen features a central island unit with bar stools and is open to the main lounge area, making this a companionable place for everyone to spend time together. Underfloor heating here adds to the cosy atmosphere during the cooler months, while in the summer you can throw open a second pair of glazed doors to the garden. A utility room and separate WC complete the amenities on this floor. On the first floor there are four lovely bedrooms, all decorated beautifully. Two of them have king-size beds with en-suite shower rooms (with rainfall shower heads), while a double bedroom and a twin/super-king-size room share a well-designed and appealing family bathroom.

The lawn front garden has sea views and is equipped with a table and bench seating on a small, raised deck, while the enclosed rear garden, with countryside views, has a large lawn and a patio area with dining furniture.

A well equipped, nicely decorated, comfortable, large house. Ideal for three generations on holiday together. Plenty of lounging space and places to get away from everyone if you want to. An excellent holiday house.

A brilliant family get together from Bristol, Spain and Portshed. Thank you so much for the use of your lovely spacious practical homely house. The decor is very appealing and the use of the front garden, back garden furniture and reading in the front porch was very enjoyable. Others enjoyed Sky sports with the cricket. We walked to the lighthouRead morese, Mark Point, Woolacombe multiple times and the coast path from Puttsborough round to Baggy Point. We found the Tunnel beaches at Ilfracombe very unusual. The weather has been brilliant and only started to rain as we packed up to go. We would love to return one day soon. Thank you so much for your welcome. Hide

We all had a lovely time, Woolacombe beach is amazing. A shame the steps down to Rockham beach have not been restored yet - we were here last year when they were blown away. All the kids had a great time - even more at Surf school. We come to Mortehoe every year and it never stops being fun.
