Escape to this boho-chic two-bedroom cottage sitting in the heart of Braunton – and perfectly placed for exploring North Devon's spectacular coastline. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms, it's ideal for small families or groups of friends who are searching for a characterful bolthole with independent shops, cosy cafes and inviting pubs on its doorstep. Take a refreshing stroll along the wide, sweeping sands of Saunton Sands (2 miles) and then try your hand at surfing or windsurfing. If you want to hike further, the coastal path from there opens up into dramatic clifftop trails that offer unforgettable views. In the evening, come home to your cottage’s pretty private courtyard to indulge in a relaxed al fresco drink which you soak up the fresh Devon air.
Pull into your private parking space and step inside your quaint hideaway. You’ll find a stylish kitchen/diner with glossy units, wood-panelled walls and a characterful table with benches - the perfect spot for sharing sociable meals and plotting the next day's adventures. Move through to the cosy lounge, where a comfortable corner sofa and Smart TV invite you to relax and unwind. On sunny days, open the French doors and step out into the enclosed courtyard – a pretty space where a table and chairs set the scene for al fresco dining or a cool evening drink. Head upstairs and you'll find a king-size bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, as well as a handy twin bedroom. A smart family bathroom with a shower over the bath completes the layout.
Grab your bike and set off along the Tarka Trail (2 miles). It’s ideal for off-road cycling and there are plenty of spots to pause for lunch or a dip in the sea along the way. Alternatively, tee off at Saunton Golf Club (2.5 miles), or head to the National Trust-owned Baggy Point (6 miles) to walk the dramatic clifftop path.
