  • Delightful detached family bungalow, tucked away in a close to town location
  • Spend a day wandering the old streets of Topsham with its bespoke shops and boutiques, antique shops and wonderful restaurants
  • Miles of cycle paths or walks to see nesting birds along the protected Exe Estuary 
  • Leave the car and travel from Topsham train station to enjoy days out in the seaside town of Exmouth via Lympstone (a picturesque village with its own train station), cathedral city of Exeter for fun on the quay or evening entertainment
Property code: 54297

Set between Exeter and Exmouth, with stunning views across the Exe estuary, it's unsurprising that Topsham is cherished for its history, culture, culinary delights and natural beauty. This recently refurbished bungalow is a charming and tranquil base for families and friends to enjoy amidst the blissful whir of a southwest seaside holiday. Wake to the gregarious cry of gulls and gentle susurration of the sea, and a coffee on the garden patio to plan your day. Topsham is just the start of your incredible adventures.

Passing through secure wooden gates on the elite residential road, you'll find yourself immersed in mature green bushes and birdsong. Through the porch and hallway you'll find a kitchen with heated towel rails and all mod cons, and an adjoined conservatory for all-weather garden glory. Through the utility area there's a sleek shower room. The lounge/diner is a cosy, comfortable space with quaint touches like a sleeper mantle and slate hearth. The garden room is perfect for respite from the group hubbub, and the master bedrooms and bathroom are blissful spaces to dream of tomorrow's adventures.

Whether you seek tranquillity, indulgence or excitement, this is the place to be. Topsham is replete with superb independent shops, galleries, pubs and eateries, with some of Britain's freshest and best produce available, direct from local farms. Exeter (5 miles) is one of England's finest medieval cities - take a rooftop tour of its 12th-century gothic cathedral for stunning panoramic views; the quay is a hidden gem with some delightfully quirky shops. The glittering seaside towns of Dawlish (12 miles), Sidmouth (15 miles) and Paignton (24 miles) are just three of the fabulous gateways to adventure in this exquisite little corner of England.

We have had three wonderful weeks at Highfield. The house itself is so spacious and comfortable and with everything you could possibly need. The garden was the real surprise.

Lovely bungalow with a stunning garden! The gifts and anniversary card was a very generous touch and greatly appreciated. Very relaxing place to stay. There was some noise from nearby construction work but it didn't particularly affect our stay. Topsham is nearby and is a really pretty town.

Highfields exceeded our expectations for holiday let with family. There are 2 lounges, a conservatory and a play room so plenty of space to spread out. Our Easter stay was prepared with Easter bunnies and chocolate eggs. Every piece of equipment a home needs is there. Modern bathrooms and kitchen. Secure garden to dog and great hide-and-seek gardenRead more. Secure gated drive and parking for 3 cars. Easy walk to Topsham and shops on local footpaths. Adjacent building work is now complete.

A very nice property with immaculate facilities and a nice garden. It is a short walk into Topsham with its pubs and restaurants. Exeter and Exmouth are a short bus or train ride away. There are many Devon towns and villages which are only a short drive away as well as lots of interesting walks.

A lovely bungalow with an incredible garden. There is at present a building site next door, but we didn't find it too intrusive. It was perfect for our grown up family, with room to be together and spread out. It was very comfortable with everything you could need. It would also be a great place for children as the garden is enclosed and would be gRead morereat for hide and seek. Hide

First class bungalow equipped with everything you might need and more. Garden is stunning but the current building site adjoining the property is noisy during the day. I am show tranquility will return when the development is completed. The owners are delightful and the welcome goodies were much appreciated. Thank you
