Property code: OC-SENN

An airy seaside bungalow with a suntrap patio, nestled along a quiet lane in the traditional Devonshire village of Croyde. This contemporary hideaway is perfect for family and friends seeking a relaxing retreat by the sea with their waggy-tailed pal. Wriggle into wetsuits and hit the iconic surfing waves rolling ashore Croyde Bay (500 metres), before toasting with a chilled sundowner on the paved patio while dinner sizzles on the BBQ.

This tastefully styled property features a crisp coastal interior with bright neutral tones, clean lines, tranquil seascape artwork, and sociable open-plan living. Shrug off sandy outer layers at the door then pad into the lounge/kitchen/diner. Prop open the patio door to enjoy a gentle summer breeze then raid the chic handless kitchen cabinets for a post-adventure snack. Adorn the dining table with a celebratory evening feast, top off glasses with a bottle of fizz, then settle in for an evening of festivities Snuggle up amongst the plump pillows on the sofas and crack open a board game or settle in for some easy entertainment on the Smart TV. As the night draws in, enjoy a restorative soak in the tub then slip into the cool sheets of the en-suite twin or tranquil double. Fido can stretch his paws while you catch some morning rays from the wooden bench seat outside and plan out the day’s adventures.

Stroll past thatched-roof cottages, bustling local cafes, and galleries in the charming village of Croyde (500 metres), or scope out the fragrant surf-inspired street food (1 mile) to be scoffed al fresco on the beach. While away sun-soaked days lazing on the soft shores of Saunton Sands (2.5 miles) or kit up for a scenic peddle along the rural Tarka Trail to the vibrant town of Saunton (3 miles).

The cottage was warm and welcoming and immaculate, the cleaners obviously used their own equipment! We had a lovely week.

We stayed last week at the property - it was clean and warm with great facilities - down quite a tight road but we got our large family car up no problem. The one issues we did have was immediately solved by original cottages and the owner working together to come up with the solution we needed and we were very grateful for that.

Beautiful accommodation and very comfortable. Cannot walk down lane as dangerous if a car comes up. Cleaning not great.

Difficult to find, property up a single track road, unadopted, that should have been made CLEAR on your website, hedge overgrown on both sides of the track so if you've got anything bigger than a medium sized car it's going to get scratched as we know to our cost! Settees VERY uncomfortable, beds also uncomfortable. Saving grace was we had great weRead moreather! Hide

The location was a disappointment- not very private and lacked a decent sitting out area/garden. No First Aid kit - which we needed. The shower in the main bathroom leaked badly! On the plus side everything else was ok - Comfortable beds and good supply of towels.

Location is good however we had an elderly guest and would not have booked had we known of the difficult accessibility. This should have been clear on property description. Same applies if we had young children. No bottle opener, sand on sofa and stains on hard floor. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay at Sennen. Thank you
