This luxurious holiday home is just a seven-minute walk to the village of Georgeham, where you can enjoy a pint of ale in a traditional pub. But in this bright and beautiful lodge, rural life meets modern sensibilities. As soon as you arrive, passing through rolling green fields and grazing sheep, the first thing you’ll notice is the spectacular outdoor space. Framing your gorgeous blue wooden home is a lush lawn, a pale wood decking with outdoor seating, and our favourite feature – a traditional, wooden outdoor hot tub. But before you jump in to start soaking the night away, it’s also worth exploring the indoors. With floor-to-ceiling windows and glass sliding doors, this home really allows you to bring the outside in. Plush velvet chairs and a cushy sofa bring a softness to the otherwise minimalist living space – a perfect setting for a warm Earl Grey after a long day on the windswept beaches of Devon. While these dramatic coastlines are of course a major attraction of staying in this area, you can also find some of the county’s best dog-friendly beaches, such as Woolacombe Beach, just ten minutes away. Perfect for you and the pup.

Nestled in the sleepy village of Georgeham, you'll find this brilliant home. Although it's a peaceful spot, you'll find plenty to do right on your doorstep – and this detached house is the perfect place to return to after a busy day. 

There's a welcoming aura inside, thanks to the soft fabrics and warm, natural wood. Flop down on the sofa with a glass of wine and a good book, or get busy whipping up your favourite dishes in the kitchen. And, on sunny days, you can fling open the patio doors and head out to the garden for an evening tipple in the fresh countryside air. 

You'll love getting to know charming Georgeham, strolling through the quaint streets, then stopping off for a pint of ale at one of the local pubs. Hikers and cyclists can explore the beautiful landscapes of the North Devon Coast Nature Reserve. And, if you fancy a day at the beach, take a ten-minute drive over to Croyde Beach to surf, walk, or simply relax. 

Dreaming Of Devon

Outdoor Seating

A ten-minute drive from the pristine shores of Devon’s Woolacombe Beach, this modern lodge is an isolated, minimalist abode that's perfect for serenity-seekers. While you can reach the town of Georgeham by taking a seven-minute stroll through the lush countryside, the home truly does feel like a world away. With spectacular green views in every direction, courtesy of the panoramic windows and floor-to-ceiling glass doors, enjoy the great outdoors even when you’re cosy inside the home. Find woven dining chairs, a plush sofa, and a cushioned headboard against your bed for when you’re relaxing indoors, as well as a bath in the en-suite for a late-night soak. But it’s the outdoor offering which we found really impressive. As well as a large, enclosed garden where you can let your pooch run wild, there are even more activities to enjoy after dusk falls on your private porch. Switch on the fairy lights for a magical evening on the soft sofa under the covered decking, then slink into the hot tub with a glass of champagne as the stars come out. This setting is simply ideal for gazing up at the night skies.

A View To Remember

If you're ready to escape into nature's embrace, then this charming lodge nestled in the heart of Devon’s green countryside is an ideal choice for you. This minimalist affair, with lovely views in every direction, is a great refuge for a few days of rest and relaxation –  especially since it's equipped with a big hot tub outside.

When you're not soaking in it and admiring the scenery, the countryside paths will take you deeper into pristine nature where you can breathe in the healthy countryside air. When you've had your fill, return to your holiday escape for a nice cup of hot cocoa on the luxurious sofa and an evening of movies to be enjoyed on the big flat-screen TV. Fall sleep with ease and wake up refreshed and rested, with the country vistas helping you to welcome a new day. 

Even though there are lots of lovely places to eat in the neighbouring towns, you can just as easily opt for staying in and cooking for yourself — there's plenty of tasty local produce available in the village, and the well-equipped kitchen will make rustling up something delicious a breeze.

The brainchild of a celebrated interior designer, this North Devon townhouse has got it all figured out. Located a couple of minutes’ drive from Croyde beach, where you’ll spend long days surfing and soaking up the salty sea breeze, the inside of the home is beautifully sophisticated, with subtle nautical nods—we loved the knot wallpaper and delicate fish shoal light shade. The bunks in the children’s room will be a hit with mini swashbucklers, while the pizza oven on the patio should keep big kids quiet for a while. You’ll find the pretty village of Croyde a five-minute amble down the road, offering a charming selection of tea rooms, ice cream parlours and thatched pubs. After a hearty roast dinner, retreat home to the outdoor hot tub before turning in for the night in those luxurious king-size beds.

Serene views, sleek interiors and seemingly impossible design elements come together to make an architectural feat of a home on Devon's coastline. The hosts built this home from the ground up – pulling up outside you'll immediately get the sense you're about to stay somewhere unique. And you'll get the personal touch too, as host Deborah and her family love to greet every guest on arrival. Style-wise, this home is equal parts classy and edgy; velvet upholstery and faux-fur throws contrast with neon signs and curious light fixtures in the bedrooms. The pièce de résistance is the gravity-defying fireplace in the living area, nothing short of a showstopper. You'll want to explore every room in depth to make sure you haven't missed anything. This is a level of design you might not necessarily expect from a sleepy part of coastal Devon – but that's part of the home's beauty. It's the perfect retreat for those seeking total tranquility in exceptional surroundings.

If you're looking for a sweeping dramatic view, beautifully decorated and comforting interior, plenty for the kids to do, and within easy reach of plenty of seaside fun, you've come to the right place. From the outside, you could almost convince yourself that you're at a (very nice!) pub, with round pub benches complete with sun umbrellas. It's the perfect laidback vibe for enjoying a drink while taking in the panoramic view of Woolacombe Beach and the North Devon countryside. Relaxing in your hot tub, a nice drink in hand, while looking out at the sweeping vista sounds like bliss.

The outdoor area's open and bright feel continues through to the interior, which is cloaked in neutral tones and chestnut woods. It's stylish yet inviting, with local artwork adding a touch of the beautiful Devon coast and countryside. Not that you could miss it – large windows encircle the home, offering ample opportunity to gaze at the mesmerising surfers all day long. And when you want to get out there yourself, you're less than a ten-minute walk to the beach. There, you'll find beautiful soft sand, beach cafes, and a surf school – why not test out the waves?

Freckles & Salt

Courtyard

If you love a beach holiday, this cute home is perfect for you. Such is the proximity to one of the beaches, you can see the lapping waves and golden sands from the privacy of your cute garden. Sitting with a cup of coffee in the morning – listening to the sound of the waves touching the shore – is the perfect way to start your day.

The home is also within walking distance of two other beaches along Woolacombe's pretty esplanade – you can take trips to all three and discover your favourite. If you're feeling peckish after swimming, numerous pubs and restaurants reside nearby in Woolacombe centre.

Whilst you're out, pick up some supplies to enjoy back at the apartment. A deluxe dining table is made for sharing plates of fish and chips, complemented by a crisp glass of something cold. 

The dining table is the centrepiece of the open-plan living room – a bright space that's lit by natural light pouring in through the floor-to-ceiling patio doors. Light, wooden flooring and a carefully designed layout help create a cosy ambiance that doesn't feel crowded. 

Upstairs, you'll find the bedrooms and bathrooms, one of which contains a bath for when you need to soothe the mind and body. Light some candles and pour in the bubble bath to truly relax before you go to bed. 

Three Beach

Satellite / Cable TV

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

One glance at those panoramic views and it's love at first sight. Perched just above Woolacombe Beach, if you're anything like us, you'll spend nearly every moment here on the expansive deck, watching the tide rise and fall – except when you're sunbathing on the sand or surfing the waves, of course. Wake up to the ocean vistas each morning, then following an alfresco breakfast, stroll down to the beach for an afternoon picnic and a dip in the water. End the evening with a barbecue and a glass of wine, watching as the sun slowly sinks below the horizon. Sounds heavenly, doesn't it?

You can even make the most of the scenery inside, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that drench the entire home in natural light. Contemporary and cool, we love how the coastal colour scheme reflects the backdrop – and all the mod-cons are accounted for. The rainfall showers in the en-suite bathrooms are hotel-worthy, a high-spec kitchen stocked with culinary gear (including a wine chiller) is a dream to cook in and Netflix, Now TV, books and board games will keep you entertained on rainy days. 

Location-wise, you can follow the South West Coastal Path into Woolacombe for eateries and pubs (about a fifteen-minute walk), or head in the opposite direction and check out the views from Morte Point (twenty-five minutes away). There's also some great golfing at Saunton if you fancy a day on the fairway, while many of North Devon's gems are within driving distance. 

Ripples in the Sea

Just a few miles from the famous Saunton Sands, this lovely home has a bubbling hot tub, a sunny veranda and huge floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the interior with light. One of three homes on the same site, it’s the ideal base for exploring the spectacular Devonshire coast. Saunton Sands is one of Devon’s most beautiful beaches, with three miles of golden sand, and azure water. It’s as popular with surfers as families, but with such a vast stretch of beach, rarely feels crowded. The popular village of Braunton is also close by, with its many surf shops, restaurants and cafes. Enjoy a lazy lie in before heading to the beach to swim, surf and explore Braunton Burrows’ immense sand dunes. Then come back for a relaxing dunk in the hot tub and watch the sun go down on the deck with a glass of something delicious. The host welcomes pets (and Saunton Sands is dog-friendly year-round), so if you’ve got a furry friend, it’s the dream holiday. 

Sandy Burrow

Bathrobes

This home was once owned by Lady Chichester and is now a charming renovated period house. Conveniently located close to the ocean, you'll wake up to the sound of the waves every day. You get a gorgeous view of the beach from the bay windows, as well as a lovely patio to sit on while you watch the morning tide roll in, a cup of coffee in hand. The elegant yet modern decor makes every moment in this home a pleasure – we love the way the wooden staircase showcases the building's historic architecture. Walk in the footsteps of the Lady herself, and climb the stairs to the second floor to see where you'll be resting your head each night. Why not go for a relaxing soak in the outdoor hot tub before you have a bite for breakfast? 

The breakfast bar is perfect for a get-together before you all head out to the beach for the day. Journey down the Esplanade for an eighteen–minute walk to the popular Woolacombe Beach, taking in all the sights and sounds of the coastline as you tuck into ice cream. Barricane Beach is only a five–minute walk away from the home, which has a charming little beachside cafe for a quick bite. 

After a day of fun by the coast, head to The Tides Inn pub for a delicious homely meal, accompanied by a glass of red or even a pint of the finest ale. If you time it right, you'll be able to walk along the Esplanade while the sun sets – the amber glow reflecting off of the ocean as you return home. Once you arrive back at the house, pop the TV on to find your favourite movie on Sky, get yourself a toasty cuppa, and put your feet up.

Lady Of The Coast

Rooftop Terrace

This original Georgian house has been completely reimagined, extended and turned into the ideal hub for large groups of friends or extended families after seamless modern living along the beautiful Devon countryside. For a cosy moment in, light the wood-burning stove and curl up on one of the squishy sofas with a cup of hot chocolate. Or relax with a great book in the separate drawing room, benefitting from charming wood floors, wallpaper prints and elegant decor to keep things extra snug. 

Outside, there are grassy lawns and a large terrace where you can cook up a feast on the barbecue. There’s a spacious dining space inside too, in case the weather isn’t on your side. With its fantastic surfing conditions, nearby Croyde Beach (twenty minutes on foot) is a destination for fans of water sports, and its golden sands are perfect for building sandcastles too. Once you’ve worked up an appetite, Croyde has some fantastic cafes, pubs and restaurants where you can refuel and possibly sample a famous Devon cream tea. Back at home, you’ll find a wet room where you can rinse off the salt and sand, as well as a grand clawfoot bath for the perfect ending to a delightful day. 

Rich Tapestry

Seeing is believing at this slick seafront apartment offering up one of the most dramatic views of Devon's coastline we ever did see and a direct footpath to Saunton's three miles of golden sandy beach.

On wild, wintery days, watch the tide roll in with morning coffees curled up on the modular sofa. And on balmy summer nights, open up the French Crittall doors wide for alfresco drinks on the terrace - the crashing waves and blazing sunsets are spell-bounding.

Inside, there's a sharp design focus to this uber-modern aparthotel, designed by the owner, a London-based property developer. A minimalist's dream, expect clean, uncluttered spaces with underfloor heating, marble-clad bathrooms, and high-end furnishings adding a dash of luxury. 

When it's time to hit the surf, pad out across the landscaped communal gardens and follow the footpath leading you directly to one of Britain's best surfing beaches. With a surf school on your doorstep and a handy outhouse and outdoor shower for hosing down and storing all your surf paraphernalia, this is a surfer's paradise. And it's dog and family-friendly too, so all the troops are welcome here. 

Explore pretty nearby coastal spots like Croyde (seven-minute drive) and Woolacombe (eighteen-minute drive). And there's a thriving foodie scene to keep you well watered and fed – from Michelin-starred restaurants to good old-fashioned fish and chips – it's got it all going on.

Everything is Beachy

Situated in the heart of Croyde's surfing resort, this modern villa is ideally located for a relaxing retreat. Begin your mornings by cooking up a delicious breakfast in the fully equipped kitchen with the sun streaming through the bi-fold doors. During the day, catch some waves at the beautiful nearby sandy beach or take a short stroll into the quaint village to discover the array of boutique shops and highly rated eateries. If you’d like to venture further afield, head on an outdoor pursuit along the coastal walkways to Baggy Point or along the headland to Putsborough Beach and admire the panoramic views of Woolacombe Bay. After a long day out, there’s an outdoor shower to wash off your sandy feet before you hop in the hot tub to soothe aching muscles, and the private patio offers the perfect spot to finish off your day with a bottle of wine and an incredible sunset.

Golfers and beach seekers – this one’s for you. With far-reaching views across Saunton golf course and Braunton Burrows, this is a perfect coastal retreat for a family. With two living areas, there’s plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax here – and let’s not forget the garden, where you can breathe in the sea air while soaking up the vistas. When you’re tempted to the coast, it’s a mere ten-minute walk along a beach path to Saunton Sands. 

Saunton Sanctuary

Set above Grunta Beach and positioned in the hilly dune-like valley behind Morte Point, this coastal abode makes the most of its location. Here, sea vistas are framed by large windows, whilst a large outdoor terrace provides an impressive viewpoint – this home prioritises your coastal vantage point for a memorable getaway.

Inside, the large open living space is homey and modern, creating a comforting place for you to unwind after a day walking the South West Coastal Path. Sink into the plump sofas with your holiday read in front of the crackling fire, gather around the family-style dining table to enjoy home-cooked dinners, and settle on the terrace with a glass of locally-produced wine and watch the tide roll in.

Speaking of the tide, spend a day on the sands of Grunta Beach, or visit Woolacombe, where you can try your hand at surfing and paddleboarding. There are endless hiking trails in the area too, so pull on your walking boots and set about this AONB’s abundant surroundings.

After a day spent on the beach, you can take a soak in the bathtub before settling down for an evening in the garden. Perhaps you’ll tuck into fish and chips while watching the windsurfers dance in front of the sunset.

Whispering Wave

Parking On Premises

Nestled in the pretty village of Croyde, this charming home-away-from-home has rest and relaxation written all over it. Our favourite spot to kick back is the sun-drenched garden, where summer barbecues and twilight cocktails are sure to be on your itinerary. With a decked seating area ideal for alfresco dining and a pretty summerhouse to retreat to when you need a break from the rays, we wouldn't blame you if you decide to spend every second here soaking up the fresh air.

Inside is just as cosy. Settle down on the plush sofas with a glass of wine and watch a film in front of the electric fire. Home cooks, meanwhile, will love preparing family feasts in the country-style kitchen. After a long walk along the coast, soak sore muscles in the bathtub before climbing into the comfortable beds for a well-deserved sleep – with so much to explore in Devon, you'll need all the energy you can get it. 

Location-wise, you're just a short walk from the village and about one mile from Croyde's sandy beach. Bring along your boards and catch some waves – there's even surfboard storage back at home – or for a more laid-back afternoon, sample the fare at the local pubs and cafes in the area, followed by a stroll along the shore. 

Pointbreak Pearl

Located just a ten-minute walk from Croyde Beach, this bright apartment is a fantastic choice for a seaside getaway. Devon is a beautiful place to visit all year round, with the stunning landscapes taking centre stage. You have a glimpse of it from your own balcony, with sweeping views of rolling hills and a glimpse of the coast.

There is a lovely indoor-outdoor feel to this home, with patio doors folding in to open up the living space to the balcony. So, you don't have to miss out on that view whether you're preparing meals in the kitchen or gathering around the dining table for dinner. But the space lends itself to any occasion – draw those curtains closed, get a film up on the smart TV, and cosy up on the plush sofas for relaxed evenings in. 

Not only is this apartment is inviting and homely, but it's also conveniently located. Walk for just ten minutes and you'll be in the heart of Croyde, coming across its shops, pubs, cafes, and of course, the blue flag accredited beach. The beach is particularly popular with surfers, equally entertaining whether you're people-watching or getting out on the waves yourself. The sand dunes are also just a ten-minute walk away, but if you want a bit of greenery, explore the Northern Devon Area of Natural Beauty to get your fix.

Smiling Eyes

Nestled in the stunning North Devon Coast, this comfortable, modern apartment boasts breathtaking views of Saunton Sands, as well as every convenience you might need for a wonderful stay. Step from the open-plan kitchen, dining room and living area onto the balcony for a glass of wine with a stunning backdrop of sea, sand, and sun. The beach is just a short two-minute stroll away, where you can walk for three miles across the sand. The dunes of Braunton Burrows by the beach are a designated UNESCO Biosphere Reserve – look out for unique coastal wildlife on your morning stroll. 

While most of your holiday will be most likely be spent outside exploring everything the beautiful part of the country has to offer, whether that's in the surf, sunbathing, or city-hopping, this home is the perfect bolthole for you to return to. Freshen up in the shower, or indulge yourself with a long soak in the bathtub, before cosying up on the sofa for a game of chess, or cuddle up on the balcony with a glass of wine for a night of stargazing. Whatever your fancy, we are sure this home has just what you need.

Wild Dunes

Located only a short twenty-minute walk from Devon's beautiful Staunton Sands beach and tucked away on a quiet countryside road, The Great Honeysuckle is the perfect place for a discerning couple to kick back and relax for a few days. Aside from the beach, the area is great for long walks and birdwatching, and once you're done exploring, you can always return and hit the outdoor hot tub to unwind. Start your day with a lazy brunch prepared in the bright kitchenette, then enjoy a hot cup of coffee on the patio – the decked terrace area is surrounded by green countryside views, that we really love. If you feel like visiting a historical town, then head over to Barnstaple, under a fifteen-minute drive away, for a nice afternoon in the city centre. When – weary from wandering and ensuring you've picked up some local goods on your travels – knock up a hearty meal and get cosy on the sofa with a good book. The interior has a real classic summertime look, with its exposed wood, light blue tones and French doors. Through to the bedroom, you'll find a continuation of the main living space with tasteful artwork and a gingham throw adding to the charm of this home-sweet-home. 

The Great Honeysuckle

Picture waking up to the sound of rolling waves each morning, whiling away afternoons on the beach just steps from your door and ending the evenings with cocktails on the terrace as the sun dips below the sea. Sounds dreamy, right? Well, that's a day in the life at this contemporary coastal apartment, right on the banks of Saunton Sands. 

With incredible ocean views, direct footpath access to the sandy beach and a shared terrace where you can soak it all in, this sleek apartment is the pinnacle of shoreside living. Effortlessly chic, the minimalist living space is decorated in calm greys and crisp whites. Not only is it a soothing space to retreat to after a day in the sun, but it's super roomy and drenched in light from the floor-to-ceiling windows. Home cooks will have everything they need to rustle up family dinners in the glossy kitchen, but our favourite room is the elegant main bedroom, which has a lavish freestanding bathtub perfect for relaxing.

Surfers will love catching waves on Saunton Sands – there's even wetsuit and surfboard storage as well as an outdoor shower on-site. Keen walkers can trek the South West Coastal Path – it runs directly past the apartment – while golfers can hit the links at Saunton Golf Club. For pubs and restaurants, head inland to Braunton (five minutes by car), or for a change of scenery, make the fifteen-minute drive to Woolacombe.

Sands On the Horizon

Just up the road from one of Britain’s most beautiful beaches, this elevated bungalow directly overlooks Woolacombe’s world-famous sea view. With a heated outdoor shower, you can wake up with a dip in the ocean or riding the waves, and rinse off sand and salt before rustling up a hearty breakfast back at home. For a relaxed day in, you can still make the most of the sunny outdoors in the luscious sloped garden. And when the weather turns, a heated conservatory it's a perfect setting to make some good progress on your holiday read.

Blue Swan

Did somebody say beach? Few places can boast of having direct access to one of Devon's finest beaches, but from this home, you can step out of the door, through the shared garden and onto the footpath down to Saunton Sands. A garden-level apartment in a freshly converted building, it's got space, style and knockout sea views. Perfect for a family or a group of friends getting away to the coast, it's both contemporary and comfortable. 

Inside, the enormous open-plan living space is the star of the show, with a vast lounge area, dining space and a well kitted-out kitchen. Fling open the sets of doors and just breathe in that sea air. We particularly love the covered terrace, with cosy outdoor sofas so you can sip your drinks and admire the view. The master bedroom comes with an in-room freestanding bathtub and the luxurious shower room is decked out in marble, with a fabulous rainfall shower.

By day, splash and play on the beach (don't forget your surfboards – there's a place to store them here) or head to nearby Croyde and Woolacombe. Walk the sand dunes of Braunton Burrows or play a round at Saunton Golf Club, and in the evening enjoy meals together at the big dining table. It's even dog-friendly there's so no need to leave out your four-legged family members here.   

A Crescent of Gold

This charming, barn-converted cottage is tucked away in Braunton village adjoining the rich sand dunes of Braunton Burrows which host a rich plant community of ferns and herbs. 

This country cottage has all the features of a rural retreat by the sea, think clean tones with blue hues, high-beamed ceilings and reclaimed white-washed furnishings. When the sun is out, open up the french doors to the Juliette balcony to invite the coastal Devonshire breeze in, or spend lunch in the soft-lawned orchard surrounded by wildflowers. When the weather isn’t playing ball, spend afternoons on the cosy sofa with the log-burning fire and a movie classic. Come rain or shine, the kitchen is ready to spring into action for picnic preparation or family-style dinners around the wooden dining table.

If you’re venturing outside the cottage, prepare for an abundance of choices - surfing lessons down on Saunton Beach (eight minutes away), cycling along the Tarka Trail, exploring the woodlands of Exmoor National Park (twenty-five minutes by car) or indulging in a local pub lunch. Surrounded by rolling countryside hills and stunning Jurassic beaches, you’ll find tranquillity and exploration in equal measure.

Burrows Cottage

This beautiful country home is steeped in history – the colonial-style building is Grade II listed, and it is said that former Prime Minister William Gladstone once stayed here when visiting Braunton. 

The bay window looks out onto the historic parish church, and there is an excellent village pub right next door for when you’re in need of some refreshment or a tasty pub lunch. The cosy sitting room has a wood-burning stove and comes with a complimentary basket of logs, and there’s an additional snug with a sofa and TV – just pop on one of the many DVDs available in the library and settle in for a movie night. You’ll also have the bright and modern kitchen at your disposal – why not rustle up a quick, delicious supper, which you can then enjoy in the spacious dining area.  

A picturesque stretch of the Tarka Trail is close by, offering paths for walking and cycling, while a short car ride will take you to an array of lovely beaches, including Saunton and Croyde. You can indulge in water sports such as surfing and canoeing here, and the house has storage space for boards. Those hoping for a more low-key, restful trip can simply enjoy the golden sands and the soothing sound of waves – and don’t forget to taste the legendary Devon cream tea! 


Take A Little Time

Swimming Pool

Look out over the fine golden sands and peeling surf of Woolacombe Bay from this boutique three-bedroom apartment. Just 150m from an award-winning beach, one of the finest in the South West, there are few better places for a family holiday that ticks all the boxes. Surfers, sunbathers and sand castle builders flock here over the warmer months (with committed surfers remaining in the depths of winter) and it's easy to see why.

The apartment is split across two levels, with a beach-inspired barefoot luxury interior that opens out onto two glass-fronted furnished balconies, one on each level. Wake up each morning, brew yourself a coffee and check the surf from the comfort of your apartment. Sure, you could check the internet, but it's not the same. With its inviting open layout, the kitchen/dining room/living area encourages you to spend time together as a group.

You're also ideally located for easy access to the bars, restaurants and surf shops that line Woolacombe's centre. After an early morning surf and a day spent enjoying all the on-site facilities at your disposal – including a gym, heated pool and sauna – why not head into town for a seafood dinner and to catch an open mic night at a local bar? While there are options to suit all tastes, enthusiastically tucking into an authentic Sri Lankan curry at nearby Barricane Beach is a sunset experience that's hard to top.

There's little reason to venture far for sun, sea and surf unless you're sheltering from south-westerlies at  Putsborough or seeking out the occasionally heavy beach break at Croyde. However, keen golfers might like to test their mettle on the challenging links course at Saunton Golf Club, while landscape lovers should take the opportunity to explore the wilds of Exmoor's western edge, both within a half-hour drive.

South By Southwest

Situated a mere ten-minute walk from the beach in Croyde, this home is ideal for those seeking a coastal retreat – and surfers, in particular. Up to eight guests will need to share two bathrooms here, one of which is an en-suite, but aside from this, there’s plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy some quiet time or socialise as a group. The garden is a lovely spot for alfresco dinners while in winter, the wood burner is a welcome sight after a day on the coast. 

Surf & Sunshine

Savour the seaside at this converted Victorian apartment just a stone's throw from the sand. The sea can be seen from quiet corners around the home, from the plush sofas in the living room to the private sun-trap terrace. Watch the gulls glide overhead, their squawks synonymous with summer holidays, and let the soft sigh of waves washing over the shore soothe your soul. 

If you're feeling adventurous, walk along the three-mile stretch of sand and pick up the coastal path to Baggy Point – a dramatic headland with wonderful views of Woolacombe and Croyde beaches. Seals, pods of dolphins and even the very occasional basking shark are known to inhabit the briny deep below (don't worry, they only feed on plankton). Stop by the Porthole beach cafe for some well-deserved tea and cake, then head home to put your feet up around the crackling fire in the original fireplace.

With a scattering of secluded beaches, Sri Lankan curry served on Barricane Beach (with proper plates, knives and forks – summer only), and the award-winning Woolacombe Beach under ten minutes away on foot, we can't think of a better place to slow down and breathe in the sea air of North Devon.

Bright & Briny

Waking up will be a breeze at this exclusive penthouse apartment, thanks to the stunning views across the rolling North Devon countryside and out to sea. Step out onto one of the many private balconies (there’s three) for a moment of quiet while taking in the rising sun. Then fire up the coffee machine and rustle up breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen before a day of adventures. And you won’t have far to go when it's time to hit the surf –⁠ Croyde Beach is just a five-minute stroll away. While away the days lounging and building sandcastles on the sandy shorelines, or up the ante with a seafront yoga class, surf lesson, or horse-riding. When it’s time for a change of pace, head into Croyde Village (ten minutes on foot). With open-air markets throughout the week and a playground that kids will love, there’s something for everyone here, including a swathe of pubs and restaurants for when thoughts turn to food. Just be sure to make it back home before the sun sets – the shared lawned garden and south-facing terrace is ‘the spot’ to watch the sun dip behind the rural Downend hills.

Skyline Cove

Located in the heart of Braunton’s historic quarter, this modern cottage puts you in a prime position to explore the delights of this vibrant village as well as the stunning sights along the North Devon coast. 

Start mornings with a sunny alfresco breakfast on the private courtyard’s patio before setting off for a day of adventure. Your outdoor space is equipped with surf and cycle anchor points, as well as wetsuit hooks to make sure your holiday is as active as you want it to be.

After a day in the great outdoors – cycling the Tarka Trail that runs through Braunton or swimming at Saunton Sands (a ten-minute drive) – come back to your home for a glass of wine in front of the fire followed by a celebratory meal cooked up in the sleek kitchen. When it’s time for bed, you’ll find the upstairs bedrooms waiting to drift you into a restful night’s sleep, leaving you feeling rested and refreshed for another day of fun. 


Surf Stables

With sea views from every angle, this hillside home is the perfect base for beach babies. Bookended by Woolacombe and Mortehoe, you'll be within walking distance from some of Devon's best stretches of sand. Surfers will want to try the waves at Woolacombe beach below, while more sheltered bathing can be found in the coves of Combesgate and Barricane beaches. 

In the evenings, sit out on the patio and watch the sun set over the sea with a glass of something nice. On chillier nights, curl up by the wood-burning stove in the cosy lounge as the wind picks up outside. The modern kitchen has all the facilities needed for rustling up a feast, though it's hard to resist the fish and chip shop found a ten-minute walk away. For more formal meals – or for a few cocktails in town – Woolacombe has several restaurants and bars, or the larger town of Barnstaple is a twenty-minute drive away. The South West Coast Path runs past the house so join it to walk through magnificent rock formations and striking cliffs above. Our recommendation? Lundy Island – famous for its puffins – can be seen from the house and makes for a great day trip, with ferries leaving from Ilfracombe and Bideford.

Rockpool Villa

Paid Parking On Street

Summers spent at the seaside live long in the memory of families, and this home will be another one to add to the memory bank. Live out your own childhood nostalgia of building sandcastles on sandy shores and sunny walks along the coastline. Being situated between the popular Devon destinations of Woolacoombe and Ilfracombe, you'll be in a prime location to take full advantage of a seaside holiday here. Spend ten minutes wandering the local coast path to Grunta Beach where the turquoise water gleams like blue crystals in the sun, or make the six minute-drive to Woolacombe for a classic English day out at the beach on a huge stretch of sand with sea waves to jump over. 

English cottages don't come much more traditional than this one with its characterful wooden beams and doors. With a wood burner and garden oasis to enjoy, the whole family will love returning here after a day out on the sand. Pick up some freshly caught fish & chips at the shop next door and live out your seaside nostalgia. While this home is traditional in many ways, we can't help but admire the handmade copper bathtub in the master bedroom – a real touch of modern luxury in a classic English home.

Seaside Nostalgia

This charming home is part of a lighthouse site, having been renovated from a former lighthouse keeper’s cottage. It’s just outside of the pretty village of Mortehoe in North Devon, where you’ll find pubs and restaurants. Woolacombe and its Blue Flag sandy beach is also just a ten-minute drive away. The cottage is in an ideal spot for bird watching, and there are plenty of walks to enjoy nearby. The house itself is cosy and comfortable, with everything you might need for a short stay by the sea.
