Perched just above the charming fishing village of Clovelly, this delightful cottage offers couples, friends or families the chance to unwind in comfort, within easy reach of beaches and picturesque countryside. Follow days in the fresh air with relaxed evenings in the wraparound garden or by the wood burner in the cosy lounge.
The historic home has retained many original features, including beamed ceilings, slate floors and exposed-stone walls, providing a characterful backdrop to comfortable furnishings and modern conveniences. A galley-style kitchen boasts granite worktops and all the appliances the chef will need, including a microwave and a dishwasher, complemented by a freezer in an outbuilding. The adjacent dining room has space for four people to enjoy long, leisurely meals. The lounge is a welcoming spot in which to sit back with a book, play a game or curl up by the wood burner with a classic movie on the Smart TV. Access the first floor via cottage-style stairs, where you’ll find a spacious double bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, dressing table and sea views. The unique bunk-bed room, open-plan to the landing, features two single beds at right angles for privacy. Shared by both bedrooms is a handsome family bathroom with impressive copper fittings. The back garden includes dining furniture under a pergola and a BBQ for grilling tasty meals in the sunshine. Follow the garden path to find the parking space for one car.
Walk or drive 2 miles to the cliffside village of Clovelly, where cobbled, traffic-free streets lead steeply down to the historic harbour and a sprinkling of shops, pubs and places to eat. Hartland Point, 7 miles away, offers incredible views, while a day out in Westward Ho!, 12.5 miles in the opposite direction, will make swimmers, surfers and beach lovers in general very happy.
