A charming bungalow perched atop a private lane and boasting sweeping sandy vistas of Woolacombe Sands. This tranquil retreat is perfect for families adventuring along the North Devon coast with a couple of waggy-tailed companions in tow. Escape the crowds and scramble down steep coastal steps to discover the rugged shoreline of Rapparee Cove (7 miles), before reclining on your sheltered veranda with an al fresco aperitif and an unbeatable ocean backdrop.
This well-presented property features a clean interior with light, neutral tones, striking picture windows, and hardwood flooring. Kick off sandy shoes at the door then step into the spacious lounge. Flop down on the armchairs, flooded with natural light from the windows, and settle in for a natter or peruse the bookshelf for an easy holiday read. Have a tinker on the piano or curl up on the large sofas to enjoy a film on the Smart TV in the warmth of the electric fire. Itinerary planners of the group can perch at the opulent wooden dining table to work out the intricate details of the next day’s adventures. Crack open a bottle of chilled wine and whip up a fresh summer spread in the bright kitchen or perch at the breakfast table with a cuppa. As the night draws in, rest up in the three tranquil bedrooms. Choose from an en-suite king-size with a beautiful breakfast nook, a second king-size with an additional single bed, and a single bedroom. Soak up the balmy Devon climate and coastal views from the leafy sloping garden or beneath the traditional stone archways on the veranda.
Sun-seekers, ball-chasers, and open-water swimmers will delight in a visit to the magnificent golden sands of Woolacombe Beach (400 metres). Slip on the wetsuits and glide across the sparkling waters of Putsborough Sands (5 miles) with a guided SUP session, or soak in the laidback surf culture as you sip a sundowner on the waterfront terrace in Westward Ho! (22 miles).
