Property code: OC-87005

Escape to this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with six friends or family members and enjoy the beaches, coastal paths and undulating countryside. The property is characterful and charming, with plenty of sociable spaces, as well as room to take some time out relaxing.

A Grade-II listed thatched cottage situated in a small village, there is a whole heap of history to explore. The imposing staircase on entering has a carving salvaged from a wrecked ship at Hope Cove, and exposed beams and original stained-glass windows add character to the home. Hang up your coats or beach towels and make your way into the kitchen/diner. Cook up a storm in this spacious and well-equipped kitchen before eating together around the dining table. Relax in the lounge in front of the warming wood burner while watching your favourite TV shows. A handy utility room and WC completes the downstairs, while upstairs are three bedrooms. Head out the back door to a private courtyard, perfect for a morning coffee in the sunshine. To the side of the cottage is an enclosed garden with patio area, garden furniture and lawn space.

Less than 1 mile away is Bantham, home to a large, sandy beach which is particularly popular with those who enjoy watersports such as surfing. There is also a pub and a shop here. This region of Devon is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, explore the sights and scenery on foot from the doorstep and take a walk along the South West Coast Path. A visit to the superb town of Salcombe (8 miles) is a must. It sits on the estuary and offers stunning views and a great mix of shops, pubs and restaurants.

Stunning little property in a wonderful location. Navigating the lanes can be very tricky - esp. for non-Brits who are not used to it. But the cottage is comfortable, gorgeously decorated, well appointed. Definitely bring grocery items with you - including basics like oil, vinegar, spices, etc. The location is wonderful for beach & coastal walks, tRead morehe local pub is great. We walked the costal paths visited Kingsbridge (not on Sunday), Salcombe (5 star) and celebrated at Burgh Island. Hide

An excellent location for anyone keen on a beach and sea as Bantham beach is an easy walk from the property. The local pub, the Sloop Inn, is close with excellent food and good value. The property is very comfortable with excellent facilities and well equipped.
