About this property
This fabulous dwelling rests in the hamlet of Welcombe, 1 ½ miles from Welcombe Mouth. Enjoying a rural location with far-reaching views of the sea, this property is ideal for families looking for a quiet getaway to this unspoilt part of Devon. The focal point of the property is the impressive kitchen/diner, designed with surrounding glass panels which provide picturesque views of the surrounding countryside all the way down to the sea, offering a wonderful place to prepare and enjoy your meals. The addition of a woodburning stove is sure to be used during the colder periods. Look forward to unwinding in the sitting room, hosting a comfortable sofa and a large TV to satisfy your entertainment requirements. There are three bedrooms at this Welcombe cottage, including a super-king-size double, king-size double and a twin, all of which have been tastefully furnished to provide comfortable sleeping spots. Completing the interior is the family bathroom with a choice of a bath and a walk-in shower, along with another shower room for added convenience. Head outside and delight in the spacious garden with a cold drink in hand – a lovely opportunity to take in the gorgeous scenery and coastal views. Walkers will be delighted to know that the coastal path runs close to the property and gives you splendid views from cliff tops and a range of birds to spot. If surfing is your passion then you must visit Welcombe Mouth to catch some good waves, or Bude’s sandy beach isn’t too far either. A fantastic base for unwinding or exploring the beauty of Devon.

Amazing views and lovely accommodation. The owners never let us down even if the weather does. No complaints. The dogs loved the large garden. A well worth stay for anyone holidaying in that part of the country. Will come again soon.
