A spectacular retreat sits waiting for you on the North Devon Coast. Enveloped by lush green countryside, you won’t be disturbed as you take in the many delights this home has to offer. It's perfect for large groups with an array of en-suite bedrooms and endless entertainment options. Anyone for water polo in the heated pool? Get creative at the pizza oven in the outdoor kitchen and enjoy your creations snuggled up in the thatched garden turret. If you can tear yourself away from the panoramic sea views, you’ll find yourself perfectly positioned to explore Berrynarbor and Ilfracombe, home to Watermouth Castle and the cove – ideal for little explorers. Speaking of, spend fun-filled family days down at Wild Pear Beach, less than a ten-minute drive away, it offers sandy enclaves and a dramatic hillside backdrop. Back at the house, there are plenty of inviting areas to socialise, like the huge kitchen or the horse-shoe shaped sofa in the lounge. Or, find a secluded spot to hide away with your favourite book – the viewing gallery with its wall of windows is a superb nook. The biggest dilemma is choosing where to have that sundowner. Will it be the safari-lodge-style balcony or wraparound terrace with ocean views?

About Devon
With its vibrant cities, wild moors and picture-perfect beaches – we can see why so many poets and writers, such as Ted Hughes, Agatha Christie and Arthur Conan Doyle, have been inspired by its stunning landscapes. Chic waterside towns such as Salcombe and Dartmouth appeal to yachties, while Totnes attracts a more alternative crowd. Or head to Exeter with its cathedral and riverside bars and restaurants on the picturesque quay....
