Let the sun pour into this fabulous holiday home on the Devonshire coast, a light and bright space for a memory-making retreat with loved ones. Utterly spacious both inside and out, this holiday home invites an extended group of eight guests to spend time unwinding together. It’s also dog-friendly, accommodating as many as five pets if required. A surfer’s paradise with an outdoor shower and a garage to store boards and wetsuits, the property is within easy reach of Saunton Sands (2 miles), a beach-lovers destination with a surf school.

Having spent days riding the waves, the warm appeal of this holiday home’s lounge/diner will draw you in, complete with a large TV, comfy sofas, and a crackling wood burner. Whip up memorable meals in the well-equipped kitchen, and gather at the dining table to enjoy the chef’s work and plan the next day’s adventure. At night, find a flexible king-size bedroom on the ground floor next to the separate shower room. Upstairs, choose from a double room with an en-suite shower room, another welcoming double, and a cosy twin, completed by the family bathroom. When the sun shines, throw open French doors to enjoy easy access to the garden, an enclosed, lawned space where little ones can play safely. Enjoy al fresco meals on the furnished patio using the charcoal BBQ, or unwind with your holiday read on the hammock.

For games on the sand and sunbathing, Croyde Bay is just half a mile from home. Croyde village itself is in the opposite direction (0.5 miles), complete with welcoming pubs offering refreshments after sunny, sandy days. To experience a livelier spot, jump in the car and visit the nearby town of Ilfracombe (9 miles), a family-friendly destination with a harbour, a museum and the exciting Tunnels Beaches.

This house is wonderful. We had everything we needed for a perfect holiday. The house is situated in a beautiful spot, very close to Croyde beach. The house is a stone's throw away from lots of equally amazing beaches. I hadn't realised how incredible North Devon is until we stayed here - absolutely loved it.

The cottage was very good and comfortable, in the winds the doors rattled. Perhaps it's a good idea to explain about the different routes to the beach.

Overall, it was a lovely house and a good location. The house has lots of space, all spacious rooms and bathrooms. There is plenty of room for 6 to 8 people. The garden is perfect for dogs and children as its enclosed. The house was clean but as others have mentioned TLC is needed as garden furniture broke and some paint work needed.

This property was lovely, if a bit tired near the end of season but in a great location. The garden needed a tidy up with overgrown shrubs and grass, some of the wooden structures are rotting. Major gripe is this property should NOT be listed as "accessible" on the website, we booked this cottage because of this listing and we were very disappointeRead mored to find that the front and door had steps and front too narrow for a wheelchair, also no disabled toilet facilities so this home "NOT ACCESSIBLE".

Excellent location. Great walks to Saunton Sands and Putsborough beaches for the dogs to run free. Properly enclosed garden which was great for the dogs. House was comfortable and well equipped but more attention was needed with regard to cleanliness.

Ideal location for families, nice house. Not suitable for disabled as there are steps to get in and no grab rails in downstairs bathroom. Very clean, tidy and comfortable house. Garden does need attention, there are a lot of flowers but are smothered by weeds. Disappointed we could not use conservatory as it was too hot. Only told day before that Read morethe doors had been locked as they are broken waiting repair. Some of the hot plates on cooker dont seem to be getting to right temperature. Hide

We loved the location of this house. It is well set out for a multi-generation family. The enclosed garden is ideal for children and dogs. The kitchen was large and met our needs well.
