Overview
Property code: 87243

A superb, detached holiday home with outstanding views across the countryside and down to the beautiful bay of Woolacombe.

Set in an elevated position with outstanding views across the countryside and out to sea, this spacious property offers the ideal coastal escape for families and groups of friends visiting North Devon. Sleeping eight people in four bedrooms and accommodating two canine companions, this superb detached property is light and airy with an open-plan living space that’s perfect for socialising and entertaining. A large terrace to the front of the property offers a delightful spot to relax in the sun and enjoy the view, while the gorgeous beach at Woolacombe is just over a mile down the road.

The hub of this property is the spacious and light-filled lounge/kitchen/diner, which stretches along the front of the building. This chic room has a minimalist feel with wooden floors, lots of natural light, and simple yet stylish furniture, adorned with coastal-themed artworks. The contemporary kitchen is a pleasure to use with a dual-fuel range cooker, plenty of space for food preparation and storage, and a breakfast bar so you can chat and drink together while cooking up a storm. Gather around the large dining table for special family meals, then pop the plates in the dishwasher and retire to the comfortable lounge to watch a film – why not warm your toes in front of the impressive wood burner on chilly evenings too? Double patio doors allow you to open up this room on warm days, and let it flow out to the generous outdoor terrace with its charcoal BBQ and outdoor sofas, where you can relax with a book and soak up some sun. At the end of the day, everybody is ensured a restful night’s sleep, with a double bedroom on the ground floor, and three further rooms on the first floor: a double, a king-size and a zip-and-link bed that can be made up as a twin on request. With two bathrooms, a washing machine, private parking, and surfboard storage at the rear, this property is well equipped for large groups.

Lovely comfortable house. It had everything we needed for a holiday for six adults. In fact, with four good double rooms it would sleep eight with ease.

Great cottage, really spacious, clean and comfortable. Fabulous welcome pack and flowers. Wonderful views and outdoor space.
