Just a short drive from Westward Ho! Beach, this home is a solid choice for a laid-back coastal stay. Countryside walks and coastal paths are close by, and the town's cafes, shops and pubs are all within easy reach. When the weather is at its best, gather in the garden for alfresco meals and evening tipples. Inside, the style is simple and comfortable. You'll have everything you need to feel at home, including a family bathroom with a soaker tub for winding down after your adventures. Pets are welcome to tag along for a fee, so no one gets left behind — not even the four-legged family members.
