This first-floor duplex apartment is located in the charming North Devon village of Mortehoe, so ideal for a relaxed coastal escape for up to eight guests – with pets welcome, too. You’ll have sea views to wake up to each day, plus the South West Coast Path right opposite, so it’s wonderful for families or groups of friends who love fresh air and dramatic scenery. The nearby Grunta Beach (350 metres) is ideal for rockpooling adventures, while the surrounding coastline promises plenty more to explore.
On arrival, head inside via the shared entrance and make your way up to this split-level retreat. The cosy double-aspect lounge is decorated in gorgeous rich tones, with comfortable seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner to keep you cosy on chilly evenings. The farmhouse-style kitchen/diner is fully equipped for meal prep, and there’s a charming bench seat positioned by the window for morning coffee with a view. You can dine here or gather in the separate dining room, where French doors open out onto a balcony. Upstairs are four inviting bedrooms – two king-size, one double and one twin – two of which enjoy. There’s also a family bathroom and a handy separate WC on the half landing. Outside, soak up the sunshine in the enclosed garden while taking in the coastal outlook. The aforementioned balcony, complete with bistro table and chairs, is also wonderful for morning coffees or evening drinks. You’ll have private parking for two cars.
Beyond the property, Combesgate Beach (0.5 miles) is a peaceful spot for paddling and picnics, while Barricane Beach (1 mile) is famous for its tiny shells. Head to popular Woolacombe (1 mile) to enjoy its sweeping 3-mile stretch of golden sand – it’s a favourite for swimmers and surfers alike. Keen to explore on two wheels? The scenic Tarka Trail begins in Braunton (7.5 miles), offering miles of picturesque cycling through North Devon’s beautiful countryside.
