Just 250m from the beach and tucked into the northern approach of Croyde Bay sits Beach Cottage, a beautifully presented, welcoming property with sea views from the master bedroom and located opposite one of the area’s finest surfing beaches. This lovely 1920’s house, has recently been refurbished and provides every comfort for a family of 6. It also offers (almost beachside) parking for 2 vehicles and a shared electrical charging point for electric vehicles. Within a 3 minute walk you and your family can be walking along the golden half mile stretch of sand at Croyde beach watching the evening surfers or taking a quiet morning dip ahead of the crowds. The property offers a prime location for surfers, bodyboarders and kayakers. Beach equipment and surf lessons are available to book nearby. For walkers, cyclists, mountain bikers and explorers there is no better position as Beach Cottage also lies next to the Southwest Coast Path with Baggy Point a short distance away and providing some of the best and most spectacular National Trust trails, cycle routes and views to Lundy in North Devon. Don’t forget to fit in a well earned Devon Cream Tea on the journey back though!
For the less energetic, you can also simply wander by foot with the children and dog through the dunes and along the numerous charming sandy paths in and around the village of Croyde where in a short distance you can be in the centre with its small shops and family friendly pubs and its numerous and various restaurants and cafes and pop up bars.
On the ground floor, the spacious lounge is all contemporary decor and easy comfort with wood-panelled flooring, brilliant white walls, and large sofas and chairs dotted around a glossy coffee table. Drenched in natural light from the beautiful bay window, it’s the perfect room to socialise and relax in. Leading off from the lounge is a thoroughly modern kitchen equipped with an array of state-of-the-art appliances and a glass-topped dining table seating six people. There’s also a handy hallway with plenty of storage space for coats and shoes and a shower room. From the hallway, stairs lead up to the first floor where three generously sized bedrooms are located. Featuring a king-size bed and two twin beds, the rooms are wonderfully soothing with coastal tones, the whitest of linen, and large sash windows that invite you to stop and stare at the sea and garden views. Also on this floor is a spacious bathroom featuring a large bath - perfect for soaking in after a long day.
While inside offers comfort and tranquillity outside is the perfect place to soak up the sun. Hedges, shrubs, and statues fill the front garden while the rear terrace is the perfect space to kick back in after a day on the beach. A handy outdoor shower allows you to rinse off surfboards and sandy feet before heading to the raised deck, where you can take it easy, chilled glass in hand. Alternatively, top up your tan on one of the sun loungers or fire up the BBQ and gather everyone together for a meal at the outdoor table.
