Overview
Property code: OC-SUNNHS

This detached four-bedroom cottage is the perfect home away from home, smartly presented and lovingly furnished. The captivating coastal village of Shaldon is less than half a mile away, with its maze of narrow twisting streets, thatched cottages and listed Georgian homes. On chilly days, relax beside the gas fire and when the sun is shining, make the most of the south-facing patio where you can light the BBQ and dine alfresco.

Step inside this beautiful holiday cottage and be welcomed into a bright and spacious entrance hall. In the lounge, there are two matching sofas and a Smart TV, so you can curl up and watch a film, in the warmth of the coal-effect gas fire.

You can enjoy a spot of retail therapy in Teignmouth or take a stroll around the Victorian pier. Alternatively, take a short walk to Ness Cove Beach (1 mile), a secluded beach nestled within the cliffs and accessible through an original smugglers’ tunnel.

A fabulous home from home in an excellent location close to all amenities but very quiet and secluded. The house was so spacious, well equipped and ideal for the 3 generations of our family. Even better than the photographs and parking for our cars was certainly a bonus. Communication with the owners, was excellent. Would thoroughly recommend.

Sunnyside House is a large, very comfortable and well appointed property in an excellent location. It is very spacious and is ideal for family holidays.

The house is roomy homely and comfortable with an enclosed garden and a rotary washing line. You can park close to the front door which makes it very easy for unloading and reloading at the end of the holiday! In addition we found that the house was immaculately clean on our arrival. There is a short walk to the beach to the south and a promenade Read moreto the north from which you can see lovely sunsets. Shaldon bakery and a good fruit and veg shop are near the house as well as several nice eating places. We really love coming here. Hide

Have stopped at this property for the last consecutive 5 years and regard it as home from home. Having its own car parking spaces is an added bonus, the rear garden is a peaceful and relaxing haven.

We enjoyed our stay at Sunnyside house. It was very comfortable and clean. We took our dog good sized garden which was mostly secure. Just a small gap at the side of the house to be carful of. It was in a great location, lots of lovely places local to eat and drink. Would definitely return.

A beautiful house with very easy access to local facilities in the area. Ideal for dog lovers with easy access to the local beach, although this is dependent on the tides. Just across the estuary Teignmouth provides many facilities for children.

A lovely multi-generational family and pet friendly property in the heart of Shaldon, putting you within easy reach of all that the lovely village and beaches have to offer without having to get back in the car until its time to go home.

We had a lovely week at Sunnyside House. We were a mixed family group ranging in ages from 76 down to 13. We found the house spacious, very comfortable and very well equipped. The property is in a very quiet area with no passing traffic but within easy reach of the beach, some shops and an excellent pub. For more in the way of shops, TeignmouthRead more is easily reached by ferry/walking. We rarely book the same cottage twice but have already booked Sunnyside House again for next year as we enjoyed in so much. We would highly recommend this property for a relaxing holiday. Hide

It is a beautiful house in an excellent location. There is lots of space for a family to stay and everything you could possibly need. Its very near the beaches and shops so no need to use a car. The garden is a real sun trap and is fine for dogs well enclosed. Couldnt fault this house at all, and would certainly recommend to anyone.

Sunnyside was fabulous for our stay in Shaldon. It has parking for 3 cars/boats, an enclosed grassy garden with outdoor dining area, is very comfortable and spacious, well equipped and in a peaceful location (away from traffic, next to a primary school but we liked hearing the children playing). Just a short level walk to the estuary beach, shopsRead more, pubs and cafes. Three bathrooms make it great for a larger group holidaying together. Large utility room perfect for allowing wet dogs to dry off after walks and swims, with access around the side of the house. Outdoor hose for washing off sand too. Overall really fantastic. Hide
