Property code: OC-N2052

A well-presented wing of the owners bungalow, set on the fringes of Berrynarbor and perfectly placed for adventuring along the sprawling North Devon coastline. This homely abode is wonderful for couples seeking a seaside adventure with up to three waggy-tailed companions in tow. Venture along the steep rocky pathway to discover the hidden shoreline of Wild Pear Beach (1 mile), before toasting with a sparkling sundowner on the tranquil lawn.

This bright property features a sunny interior with light-flooded social spaces and calming neutral tones. Shrug off your outer layers at the door then pad into the inviting lounge/diner. Snuggle up on the plush seats amongst the throw pillows and unwind with some post-adventure nibbles. With a comfortable sofa bed to accommodate any extra guests, there’s no excuse for missing out on late-night movie marathons or blethering into the early hours. Sit at the dining table and plan out the perfect North Devon itinerary or gather for a celebratory supper. Stock up the wooden kitchen cabinets with a selection of locally sourced goodies or whip up a simple spread to be devoured alfresco. When it’s time to turn in for the evening, rest up in the peaceful double then indulge in a leisurely breakfast in bed. Reline on the swing seat with your morning coffee and drink in the sweeping country views beyond.

Stroll along the bustling harbourfront of Ilfracombe (4 miles) then perch a sunny terrace sipping fine wine and sampling delicious dishes at the Mediterranean-style tapas bar. Descend the steep beach staircase to admire the rugged landscape of Rapparee Cove (3 miles), or gear up for a scenic SUP session on the glistening waters of Putsborough Sands (14 miles).

This was our fifth stay at Spindrift Cottage and as always, we felt we were in a home-away-from-home. It is in a quiet location but a very short distance from all local attractions. The owner is a lovely hostess and always makes us welcome. We'll definitely be coming back!

Great property, very clean. Some lovely walks nearby. Owner Sue was lovely and very welcoming and gave us some great tips about the area. Having our own little bit of garden was fab especially for our two dogs. Excellent value for money.

As described in the advert, the only thing I would say was it was not described as an annex to an existing building but described as a cottage

This was our fourth stay at Spindrift Cottage, we arrived a little early but Superhostess Sue Sussex had already got the place spotless as always and welcomed us in. It's a lovely quiet location despite the main road being at the end of the garden (triple glazing helps!), and we have always felt it's a home-from-home - sad to leave very time.

Couldn't wish for a better property to stay in. Also, Sue the owner is brilliant for any information you require on the area. Ideally situated to travel to other areas.

We enjoyed our stay. The property was close to the coast path, Ilfracombe and Combe Martin. The nearby beaches of royde and Woolacombe worth visiting. It was good to have a pleasant garden.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Spindrift Cottage. Sue was a great host and had good local knowledge. The cottage had everything we needed and the enclosed garden was great for us and our dog to enjoy. We are hoping to revisit next year.
