Just up the road from one of Britain’s most beautiful beaches, this elevated bungalow directly overlooks Woolacombe’s world-famous sea view. With a heated outdoor shower, you can wake up with a dip in the ocean or riding the waves, and rinse off sand and salt before rustling up a hearty breakfast back at home. For a relaxed day in, you can still make the most of the sunny outdoors in the luscious sloped garden. And when the weather turns, a heated conservatory it's a perfect setting to make some good progress on your holiday read.
