About this property
Set in the heart of the picturesque seaside village of Shaldon, this charming riverside cottage is perfect for couples and families keen to uncover the beauty of South Devon; sandy coves and scenic walks await from the doorstep. The idyllic fishing village of Shaldon is bursting with coastal charm, home to a maze of narrow twisting streets lined with thatched cottages and listed Georgian homes. Enjoy a traditional bucket and spade day at Shaldon Beach, half a mile away, set amidst some of the most spectacular coastline in South Devon, and popular for water sports including fishing and swimming. Situated on the edge of the mouth of the River Teign, the seaside town of Teignmouth is a true delight, reachable via the historic passenger ferry, less than half a mile away. The secluded Ness Cove and the small cliff-top zoo of Shaldon Wildlife Trust can both be reached within half a mile.
Featuring a wood burner and lovely nautical touches reminiscent of the local coastline, the spacious lounge/diner welcomes you and perfectly reflects the warmth and vibrancy of your surrounding scenery. The plush sofa invites you to sit back and unwind, whilst the quaint, country cottage-style dining set provides room for the whole party to gather and plan tomorrow’s adventure. The light and bright adjoining kitchen, with a skylight, features a contemporary finish and a handy breakfast bar, as well as everything you need to whip up something delicious with your tasty local produce. The family bathroom on this level shares the same contemporary charm as the rest of the ground floor. Upstairs, you’ll find two blissful bedrooms, one king-size and one twin with 2ft single beds (which can be made up as a double on request), both boasting homely touches and plush sofa furnishings that set a wonderfully peaceful ambience.
Outside, the small furnished seating area is an idyllic spot to enjoy al fresco drinks and stargazing long past sundown. There is parking available in a public car park less than half a mile away.
