There’s nothing quite like a bit of sea air for the soul, and you’ll get plenty of that here. Located in a pretty seaside resort on the shores of the English Riviera, this home is just a 2-minute walk from Shaldon Beach. Set over three floors, with plenty of space to spread out, it’s ideal for a family holiday or getaway with friends. Cosy and inviting, light streams in over the beach-inspired interiors where you’ll love relaxing after a day exploring the stunning coast. The separate utility room makes life easier if you plan on staying for a lengthy break. Fire up the barbecue as the kids play in the garden, and the grown-ups gather around the fire pit with a drink in hand. Come together around the outdoor dining table for an alfresco supper of local seafood purchased in the village. The birthplace of famous English novelist, Dame Agatha Christie, is less than a 20-minute drive away. Torquay has plenty of attractions for the whole family, and its bustling marina, featuring plenty of shopping and dining options, is bound to be a favourite spot.
