Stylish and spacious, this gorgeous country-style cottage sleeps seven people over three bedrooms and is the ideal hideaway for family groups in search of a real home-away-from-home to enjoy while they discover the Devon countryside together. Bantham beach is 6 miles away and has excellent paddle boarding and surf hire shop for boards and wet suits. Take a day out to Blackpool Sands Beach (7 miles), before heading to Dartmouth (10 miles) to try your hand at kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing, or crabbing on the quay. Alternatively, make your way to the pretty town of Salcombe (10 miles) to explore the home of the eccentric scientist and inventor, Otto Overbeck, and then sample a glass or two of the local gin in the town’s distillery. In the evening, come home to enjoy a glass of wine on the cottage’s terrace.

Park your car in your private parking space with enough room for two vehicles and take a moment to appreciate this pretty stone cottage. Step inside and you’ll find a sleek and spacious kitchen with plenty of worktop space. Head along the corridor to find a useful downstairs WC, then just past the stairs on your right, you’ll find the wonderful country-style dining area, a light and welcoming space that’s perfect for big, sociable dinners. At the end of the corridor discover the lovely lounge, where there’s plenty of room for everyone to unwind on an armchair or sink into a sofa in front of the Smart TV. Head upstairs and you’ll find three inviting bedrooms: two stylish doubles (one with an en-suite shower) and a spacious triple room that’s ideal if you have the kids with you. A handy family bathroom with a shower over the bath completes the layout.

Step outside and you’ll discover a paved terrace with high walls and a gated entrance, which makes it safe if you have the children or a canine companion with you. The built-in BBQ and garden furniture ensure you can enjoy al fresco meals in the sunshine.
