A characterful country cottage enveloped by lush green foliage and perfectly positioned for accessing the glistening shores of the North Devon coast, this leafy hideaway is ideal for a small family or group of friends seeking a secluded retreat in nature. Feel the salty ocean spray as you embark on a reef fishing trip from the harbour of Ilfracombe before throwing your catch of the day onto the sizzling charcoal BBQ for an unbeatable dining experience.
This charming property blends traditional exposed oak beams and wooden furniture with crisp, clean lines and sleek neutral tones. Step into the light-flooded lounge and fire up the crackling wood burner to warm chilly toes, or throw open the patio doors and enjoy the country breeze on balmy summer evenings. Potter in the stylish L-shaped kitchen with elegant wooden worktops, load up the glass dining table, raise a glass, then tuck in. Ascend the staircase to the two bedrooms: an en-suite king-size bedroom with an opulent walk-in dressing room, and an inviting twin with earthy-toned furnishings. Grab a freshly brewed coffee and perch on the patio overlooking the gardens or hide away on the side patio with a good book.
The stunning coast of North Devon will tick all the boxes for an unforgettable family escape. Foodies will delight in sampling a taste of the Mediterranean with a visit to Ilfracombe’s tapas and wine terrace, 5 miles, or venture into the mysterious 19th-century archways carved into the hillside at Tunnels Beach, 6 miles. Enjoy a paddle on the secluded shores of Barricane Beach, 7 miles, before tucking into a freshly prepared Sri Lankan curry on the shore.
