Set on the edge of Bigbury and the South West Coastal Path, 1.5 miles from the beach and a short walk to the golf course, this charming property is a perfect base for a family retreat by the seaside.

Nestled within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and just 1½ miles from Challaborough Beach you will find this property which is ideal for families. For the more discerning beach lover Hope Cove and Sedgewell Cove are worth a visit. Stop by Burgh Island, famed for its association with Agatha Christie, at low tide take a stroll across the causeway or, for a unique experience take a ride on the sea tractor keeping an eye out for Agatha’s now-famous writing hut. Golfers can enjoy a round at Bigbury Golf Club, which is within a short walk of the property. Here, 18 holes await you in spectacular surroundings. Thurlestone Golf Club, a challenging links course, offers a cliff top terrain with elevated coastal views. The whole of the South Hams is literally on your doorstep, so take time to explore the countryside, stunning coast, and the many towns and villages.

This delightful property provides a stylish and contemporary interior plus all the benefits of staying close to the sea. Set in the grounds of the owner’s home, an artist in residence, his beautiful paintings are shown throughout the property, yet your privacy is assured. Stepping inside you are met with a spacious and fully equipped kitchen with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. A utility cupboard houses the washing machine and tumble drier. Moving on through the kitchen you’ll find the open-plan lounge/diner with Smart TV, comfy sofas and views over the garden to the sea on the horizon. The dining area seats four comfortably and the bookshelves offer something for everyone. Doors from the dining room leads out onto a decked area. Moving on through to the bedrooms you will find a master bedroom with king-size bed, Smart TV and views over the rear garden and one twin room. The bathroom completes the accommodation and has a bath with separate shower and WC.

The sea garden is a comfortable cottage which is cosy, very well-equipped and really close to Bigbury. Lots of games and books and a responsive host. Can recommend.

My family and I (inc. two daughters aged 6 and 4) had a lovely five-night stay at this propety. It had all the necessary amenities for our stay and is in a great location to visit Bigbury-on-Sea, Salcombe and more. Host Peter is charming and very helpful. Be sure to check out his artwork if you can.
