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.
