Nestled in the idyllic fishing village of Shaldon, you'll find this homely apartment. With space for up to four guests, plus a furry friend, it's a great place to begin your adventures in South Devon. This interior is simple and unfussy, with a bright, contemporary feel – you'll settle in right away. Open a bottle of wine for your guests and get to work in the kitchen, whipping up your favourite dishes to share together at the round table. And, when you need a little peace and quiet, we recommend filling the bath with bubbles and treating yourself to a long, luxurious soak. Shaldon has plenty of charming pubs where you can head for a pint of local ale after a bracing walk along the South West Coastal Path. Ness Cove Beach is only a short stroll away, and there are plenty of other beaches to explore dotted along the coastline. And, if you cross the bridge, you can visit the seaside resort town of Teignmouth, with its pier and heated lido.
