About this property
An astonishing coastal cottage in an idyllic rural setting on Devon’s border with Cornwall. Just 20 miles from Westward Ho! and close to an impressive array of beaches and inland villages, this two-storey gem is perfect for a large family or group eager to explore the Hartland Devon Heritage Coast. It features two fabulous lounges, a spacious kitchen/diner, and a large garden with an outdoor pool.
The detached cottage lies just off a hedge-lined road overlooking farmland that tumbles gently down towards the coast. Each room is bright and welcoming and great care is given to its contemporary decoration, with beamed ceilings, vaulted ceilings and exposed stonework scattered throughout. Stepping into the cottage you enter the kitchen/diner, which has ample table space, a wood burner and French doors at one end leading to the garden. A utility room stands to the side. A hallway leads to the opposite end of the cottage and two lounges, the first a lounge/library with wood burner and comfortable seating and a secret door that leads to a lounge/TV room. The ground floor also has a double bedroom with an en-suite Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a triple bedroom featuring an impressive range of tech. The bunk bedroom is perfect for youngsters, and there’s a shower room nearby, too. Stairs in the kitchen/diner lead to a super-king-size bedroom and a contemporary bathroom, while on the other side of the cottage, a sweeping stairwell leads to three en-suite double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. The cottage’s outside space is split between a large lawn and decked area at the front, which leads to the heated outdoor pool. A secluded cobbled courtyard awaits at the rear. This features a hot tub and a games room.
Welcombe and Marsland Mouth beaches lie within 1 mile of the cottage, as does the South West Coast Path, a haven for walkers who can also explore the area’s lane and footpaths. Westward Ho! and Bude (within 20 miles) offer a family-friendly coastal experience and have been beloved by generations of water sports lovers.
