With its enviable sea views and generous outdoor space, this Salcombe home is an ideal choice for a coastal getaway. Inside, there’s plenty of room to spread out in homely comfort, with all the mod-cons needed for a relaxed stay – be it a cosy fireplace or en-suite bedrooms. What we love the most, though, is the garden. The vast lawn is perfect for little ones or dogs to tear around on, and a selection of seating areas offer options to dine alfresco and soak up the scenery. For a day at the beach, meander down the lane next to the house and onto the footpath, and you’ll find yourself on South Sands Beach.
