Found within a couple of hundred metres of the centre of Croyde – a very popular Devon village as well as a surfing mecca - this property is a delightful semi-detached home from home, where contemporary style and decor cleverly combine with distinctive character features to provide a really special holiday retreat. It’s in the ideal spot to discover the beauty of the North Devon coastline.

The spacious sunny entrance hallway leads to an attractive double bedroom and from here, two steps up to French doors open onto the patio and lovely lawned garden, perfect for barbecues. A central inner courtyard - completely private and fully enclosed - is a real suntrap and with an outdoor shower, it’s ideal for quick and easy use after a day on the beach. A superb dual aspect spacious dining kitchen with character beams is a lovely space for leisurely breakfasts and the stylish living room has an impressive fireplace and wood burner - a real treat on cooler evenings. A stairway from the living room takes you to three further pretty bedrooms, offering a choice of sleeping arrangements, and a modern family bathroom completes the excellent facilities.

Keen surfers will be in heaven in Croyde, and the beach footpath is within a few hundred metres of the cottage. If sandcastles and rock pools are more your thing, then there is plenty to discover too. The village is also home to several great pubs which serve food and there is also a fabulous ice cream shop. For walkers, get on the South West Coast Path and head to the National Trust headland of Baggy Point where there are dramatic views. The lively village of Braunton with its surf museum and independent shops and cafes is also just 5 miles away.

We had such a brilliant stay at Davids cottage. Perfect location with fantastic access to the beach, pretty walks and the shops and restaurants. The cottage was very peaceful and cosy and had everything we required. We would love to stay again one day.

David's Cottage is a lovely cosy cottage in a perfect area of North Devon for a quiet holiday break. Fully equipped with everything from a tumble dryer and crib to under floor heating and a bbq. We spent time enjoying the peace and quiet in its secluded garden then moving on to the local towns for a wander and ending our evenings eating in the locaRead morel pubs. Just a 2 minute walk away, The Thatch and Blue Groove were excellent for food and drinks. The open log fire warmed the Cottage quickly in the evening. With beautiful beaches and coastal walks a short walk or drive away it was a wonderful retreat. Hide

Lovely cottage to stay at. It is in a quiet area, which suited us so well. Easy access to the local town and a relatively short walk to the beach was a bonus. The cottage itself was so well equipped, which made life so easy there!!! We enjoyed using the garden, as well, but the whole week was exactly what we wanted.

Great location for family holidays, a premium price for school holidays but was still reasonable. Good standards were achieved throughout.
