Waking up will be a breeze at this exclusive penthouse apartment, thanks to the stunning views across the rolling North Devon countryside and out to sea. Step out onto one of the many private balconies (there’s three) for a moment of quiet while taking in the rising sun. Then fire up the coffee machine and rustle up breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen before a day of adventures. And you won’t have far to go when it's time to hit the surf –⁠ Croyde Beach is just a five-minute stroll away. While away the days lounging and building sandcastles on the sandy shorelines, or up the ante with a seafront yoga class, surf lesson, or horse-riding. When it’s time for a change of pace, head into Croyde Village (ten minutes on foot). With open-air markets throughout the week and a playground that kids will love, there’s something for everyone here, including a swathe of pubs and restaurants for when thoughts turn to food. Just be sure to make it back home before the sun sets – the shared lawned garden and south-facing terrace is ‘the spot’ to watch the sun dip behind the rural Downend hills.
