There's something magical about a cottage stay in Devon. Gathering together family and friends for a wholesome reunion filled with nostalgia. This home in North Devon is the ideal spot for exactly this. With masses of space to relax in, and a big garden to roam, everyone is sure to find a spot they love. From gathering around the breakfast bar to socialise while you cook a fry up, to swinging open the patio doors and letting the country air wash over you while sitting at the dining table, there's something special about days spent in this newly-renovated home. Sunny mornings are particularly glorious when the light streams through the many windows. The home is situated in a brilliant location in the peaceful village of Morthoe. Here, you'll have incredible coastal paths on your doorstep taking you around the rugged Devon coastline. There's an entrance to a beautiful trail at the bottom of the road this home is on. While looking at the coast from afar is enjoyable, being in the water is even better. Thankfully, you'll be close to some of the best beaches in North Devon, including Woolacombe – which is less than ten-minutes by car. Spend afternoons here splashing around in the sea or lounging on the warm sand before returning to Morthoe to enjoy craft ale at the local pub. Life moves slow around here, and that's part of the beauty. Relax, unwind and connect with your loved ones in a beautiful part of the UK.
