Overview
Property code: BEAHO

The grand exterior welcomes you inside where contemporary elegance awaits. Spacious, stylish and sitting perfectly less than 2 miles from the bustling market town, Bideford, this home is a wonderful abode for those wishing to explore the fantastic local area before kicking back in comfort and winding down for the evening.

Perfect for a holiday dinner party, the fabulous kitchen/diner area is well-equipped for cooking up a storm, rustling up a picnic or dining under the fabulous pendant lights at the large dining table. After dinner games can be enjoyed in the games room complete with table tennis and table football, before a soak in the private hot tub to finish the night in style. There is also an indoor cinema room with a 90” screen and true surround sound perfect for a cosy evening in. The south-facing, enclosed garden is just the place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee in the morning after a great night’s sleep in one of the delightful bedrooms. There is also a decking area, ideal for sunbathing, at the bottom left of the garden equipped with rattan garden furniture. Five out of six bedrooms have en-suites and the sixth room being next to the shared bathroom, freshening up is quick and easy. Relax in the serene, bright and fresh lounge as you gaze out of the bay window and into the garden or put your feet up on the cosy furniture. Although adjoining the owner’s property, your privacy is assured.

Saunter into Bideford and stroll along the quay where you can hop on the MS Oldenburg and take a trip to the beautiful island of Lundy. You can spot Lundy from the beach at Westward Ho!, 2.5 miles from home, where a dip in the sea followed by fun in the amusement arcades and a dinner of tasty fish and chips is a fun day out for all.

Brilliant house to stay in for a big family, the games room was perfect and great that it had so much space and nearly every room has its own bathroom which is really handy when there is a lot of you. Brilliant location and super friendly hosts. We will definitely be back. Thank you

We loved spending Christmas at Beacon Cottage. It was a wonderful place to get the extended family together, and an easy walk into Bideford as an added bonus! We enjoyed walks down to the waterfront and stunning views from the house. I would definitely recommend it and would love to return with a group again. It's fantastic for family holidays

Its a great property if travelling as a large group or with several families. Having as many bathrooms meant we had our own spaces. We used the large dining table for many meals and the games room was well used plus we watched the massive TV. The big garden was great for the two dogs and the hot tub, although very hot, was also used a few times.

We had a lovely holiday at Beacon house. It was clean and tidy and fairly well equipped. My only criticism is the design of the 4 stair gates, which. are a serious trip hazard whilst going up and down the stairs.

A good sized and spacious house that easily handled the eight of us for the week. Plenty of cutlery, crockery and kitchen utensils for cooking. The games room was a boon especially with the inclement weather we've just had. The bedrooms were large and comfortable.

A lovely house with plenty of space which is spread over 4 floors including the basement which has a pool table in. The living room has a very large TV bigger than the one in the pictures which comes with full sky package and Netflix.

Hot tub was a bonus and the owners were on hand living in the adjoined property and great at resolving an issue we had. Would highly recommend. Hide

Our family of 6 adults, 2 teenagers, 2 small children and 1 cockerpoo really enjoyed staying at Beacon House. There were several games of cricket (soft ball and facing away from the greenhouse!) and much laughter.
