About this property
The Cosy View is a charming house resting in Paignton, perfectly positioned for families and friends seeking a coastal escape near Dartmoor National Park. Offering sea views and a pet-friendly policy, this property provides a welcoming base for exploring the delights of Devon. Arrive at The Cosy View and park with ease before strolling down the path to the entrance, where the elevated position hints at the peaceful setting of this quiet cul-de-sac. Step inside through the front door into a neat hallway and feel the sense of space as wooden flooring leads you into the sitting room. Here, a soft rug adds warmth underfoot while two inviting sofas create the perfect spot to unwind after a day exploring the coast.
Flick on the Smart TV or simply enjoy the calm ambience as the evening light filters through. Continue through to the kitchen and dining area, a sociable space where you can prepare hearty meals using the well-equipped facilities, from the gas hob and electric oven to the handy air fryer. Throw open the back door and step into the enclosed garden, a suntrap terrace complete with seating, table, and bench, ideal for alfresco dining or a quiet morning coffee. The side gate makes life easy for storing bikes or beach gear after a day by the water. Climb the staircase to discover three thoughtfully arranged bedrooms.
The first double offers long panoramic views and its own TV for relaxed evenings, while the second double provides a peaceful retreat with access from one side and a glimpse of the sea in the distance. A cushy single completes the sleeping arrangements, also offering a peek of the coastline. The bathroom is fresh and functional, featuring a bath with shower over, basin, and WC, perfect for washing away the salt and sand. When you’re ready to explore, the seafront is just a short drive away, and the surrounding area brims with adventure. Dartmoor National Park beckons with its wild ponies, granite tors, and endless walking trails across dramatic moorland.
Head to Torquay for a classic seaside experience, where palm-lined promenades frame a bustling harbour and waterfront restaurants serve the freshest seafood. Or venture to Brixham, a vibrant fishing town where colourful cottages overlook the quay, the replica Golden Hind offers a glimpse into maritime history, and fish markets tempt you with the catch of the day. For a taste of elegance, Dartmouth awaits with its imposing castle, boutique galleries, and scenic river cruises along the Dart. The Cosy View is a practical yet inviting base, combining a peaceful cul-de-sac setting with far-reaching views and easy access to the best of Devon’s coast and countryside.
Situated in the centre of Torbay between Brixham and Torquay, Paignton is one of South Devon's premier seaside resorts. Boasting long sandy beaches and a picturesque harbour, this charming town also plays host to a wonderful selection of shops, pubs, and restaurants. The town makes a fantastic base from which to explore the English Riviera and its surrounding attractions, also featuring a renowned zoo and sea life centre. Nearby, Torquay is equally as vibrant with an array of excellent shopping opportunities, fascinating museums, and numerous parks and gardens. The nearby stunning coastline offers great walking and cycling opportunities along beautiful stretches of beach and rugged cliff tops, while the rolling meadows of South Devon provide an idyllic setting for afternoon strolls and an abundance of picturesque picnic spots. The bustling town of Preston is also worth a visit, offering another great beach, watersports facilities, many shops and pubs, and walks along the seafront and through
Primley Woods. Paignton is a fabulous holiday location for all the family, all year round.
