This idyllic property is just half a mile from the historic village of Georgeham, where you’ll find a village shop and dog-friendly pubs. Just under a mile in the other direction will take you to coastal Croyde, a pretty, unspoilt village filled with surfers and families enjoying traditional British seaside holidays.

After dinner, head out onto the patio, crack open a bottle of something fizzy and take a dip in the hot tub. Afterwards, spend a little time warming your toes by the electric wood burner in the living area before retiring to the stylish bedroom for the night.

Take your pet for a stroll at Putsborough Beach (2 miles) – the sea views are fabulous and you’ll find plenty of perfect spots to enjoy a picnic.

My wife & I thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay at Forda Hill Chalet. Situated in a lovely peaceful location, a short drive from Croyde & Woolacombe, which we frequented regularly. All the facilities you could wish for & easily accessible with ample parking space

Beautiful chalet in an amazing location/. The Forda Hill Chalet was the ideal getaway for a long weekend on the North Devon Coast. The chalet was exceptionally clean & beautifully furnished & ideal for a couple looking to escape in a beautiful part of the world. The chalet is ideally located meaning you can walk to Croyde & Putsborough beaches & Read moretwo great pubs in the village as well, the Kings Arms especially is worth a visit. The hot tub was a great way to relax at the end of a day of hiking or jumping through the surf all day. I would highly recommend this place to stay & would return myself Hide
