About this property

Edinburgh House is a spacious and comfortable duplex apartment ideally located just 5-7 minutes’ walk from Salcombe’s pretty waterfront, shops, boutiques, pubs and restaurants. Offering clear and uninterrupted views across the Salcombe Estuary towards Snapes Point and South Pool Creek, the apartment is arranged over two levels. The sandy beaches of East Portlemouth and Millbay can be reached quickly and easily via the small passenger ferry that runs to/from the harbour all year round.

The apartment forms part of a late 19th Century house which was converted into three apartments in recent years. Arranged over two floors, the apartment is suited to family groups or two couples looking for a centrally located property with lovely views and off-road parking.

A newly refurbished and extended kitchen is located on the ground floor with sleek fitted units and integrated appliances including an American style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The room extends out towards a bright and sunny breakfast area with table, four chairs and wonderful views. A door leads out to the side of the house with access to garden and parking area. Also found on this floor is the sitting/dining room with panoramic views.

The three bedrooms are split across the property with one ground floor double bedroom, and two bedrooms (a King-size and a twin on the first floor). A shower room is located on the first floor and a stylish and well-equipped bathroom with rain-head shower is located on the ground floor.

To the front of the house is an attractive area of tiered garden (over four levels) with some stone terracing and garden furniture. There is also a balcony at first floor level. Off-road parking is provided for one medium sized car.

Salcombe is a popular destination for watersports enthusiasts, walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea. There are several pretty beaches within a short distance, including North Sands and South Sands, plus the coves East Portlemouth on the opposite side of the estuary, just a short passenger ferry ride away. Also on your doorstep is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, coasteering, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe, take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking on the South West Coast path.

    The views are breathtaking, and the various seating options, inside & out, to enjoy them were fantastic. We have never stayed anywhere where the kitchen has everything you could possibly need and more. Seating in the lounge area was really comfy with blankets provided which made the colder evenings cosy. The main bedroom is huge, plenty of storage for clothes but we weren't comfortable in the bed. We feel this was due to a lot of give in the mattress and in some places we could feel the springs. We only used the rain shower upstairs and it was fantastic with plenty of water pressure. It was lovely to have such a huge selection of books as well as dvds & games. The only other improvement we can think of, apart from a change of mattress, is a smart tv.

    We enjoyed all the personal added details and book choice. Kitchen was very thoughtfully kitted out with everything we could need and generous provision of cleaning supplies. We would be very happy to return.

  • Sarah

    The house itself is spacious, comfortable & provides everything you could need in terms of facilities. We hope to return many times in the coming years.
