Located in Kingsbridge, this delightful Victorian home offers a wonderfully comfortable base from which to explore the market town’s sights, as well as the delights of the South Devon AONB. Styled with a modern touch yet retaining much of its historic charm, you’ll find a welcoming open-plan living area decorated with nautical prints and boasting ample natural light. We’re particularly fond of the wood-burning fire here that invites cosy evenings enjoying the warmth of its glow over a glass of wine. Upstairs, meanwhile, you’ll find a pair of comfortable bedrooms beckoning a restful night’s sleep, while outside, the private leafy garden is the ideal spot to enjoy alfresco breakfasts and celebratory sundowners when you’re not out sampling the local pubs. Speaking of exploring, you’ve got a wealth of things to see and do nearby, including the Kingsbridge Cookworthy Museum (a three-minute walk), Hope Cove (a seventeen-minute drive), as well as the South West Coast Path.
