At this characterful cottage, guests can experience life in a tranquil village with all its quiet charms while being only a short drive to lively Teignmouth. The village of Shaldon is home to traditional shops such as a butcher and bakery, as well as pubs and cafes to cater to your holiday needs. Just over half a mile away is Ness Cove Beach, a secluded and beautiful spot accessed by a historic smugglers' tunnel. Or take a ferry or short drive over the river to Teignmouth (1 mile), where you’ll find a vibrant tourist town filled with attractions, entertainment, restaurants and a family-friendly beach with an atmospheric 19th-century pier.
Step through the front door of this charming cottage to find yourself in an attractively furnished lounge dining area. This light and pleasant room has been tastefully decorated to ensure guests’ comfort while retaining some original features such as the exposed beams and large sash windows. Relax on the comfortable sofa in front of the TV and wood burner or gaze out of the windows at the lovely view. The round dining table also enjoys a village view and separates the lounge from the kitchen, a compact yet fully equipped space featuring hand-built oak cabinets. Next, head up the wooden staircase to the first floor, where you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms: one king-size, one double and one with bunk beds. Each bedroom enjoys views over the green and to the hills beyond. The bathroom with shower over the bath can also be found on the first floor.
At the front of this property is a small, enclosed terrace furnished with a table and chairs. It’s a lovely place to sit with a coffee and watch the activity on the nearby village green, which often hosts markets, activities and events.
