Sitting on the banks of the River Teign estuary, Shaldon is a town with a rich history of relaxation. A popular bathing spot, its coastal location is a wonderful place to replenish your mind and body, and its annual regatta is another reason to stick around. This cute cottage is set just one mile from Ness Cove Beach, but you've also got the river on your doorstep – water, water is truly everywhere. Authentic and original, this home is every bit the coastal abode you’d expect from Devon. We love the white painted exterior, shuttered windows, and a patio out front complete with a colourful parasol. While you might be spending a fair bit of time out here with your morning coffee, or evening tipple, you’ll also love the delights of the interiors. The living space feels homely and inviting from the offset. Creams and beiges are reminiscent of the sands on the shore, while chunky timber beams and supports bring a rustic warmth to the lounge. You’ll love cuddling up on the plump sofas by the fire with a cuppa, just as much as you’ll love eating fresh local fish for dinner on the dining table. Surfing can wait until tomorrow morning.

About Teignmouth
Arrive in Teignmouth by train to experience what is arguably the best coastal route in England.
