Perched above Woolacombe Beach, this coastal abode makes the most of its location. Here, sprawling sea vistas are framed by large windows and a multicoloured glass brick wall reflects the sun-dappled hues across the bright living space, while a large outdoor terrace provides impressive panoramas across the North Devonshire coast. Days revolve around the water here – wake up in your peaceful bedroom before stepping out onto the terrace to sip your morning coffee and watch the waves roll out, then open the windows up and settle into the elegant dining room for a leisurely breakfast with the sea breeze. Energised and raring to go, head to Woolacombe Beach to enjoy a day on the sands, or try your hand at surfing. There are countless hiking trails in the area too, so pull on your walking boots and set about this AONB’s stunning surroundings. Back at home, the kitchen is open and spacious, so you can enjoy socialising whilst preparing a seafood feast with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc in hand. The large open-plan living room is homey and cosy, creating a comforting place for you to unwind with your loved ones and share conversations about the day. Fall into restful... slumbers in the pared-back and soothing bedrooms, ready to wake up for another day by the waves.
