Set above Grunta Beach and positioned in the hilly dune-like valley behind Morte Point, this coastal abode makes the most of its location. Here, sea vistas are framed by large windows, whilst a large outdoor terrace provides an impressive viewpoint – this home prioritises your coastal vantage point for a memorable getaway. Inside, the large open living space is homey and modern, creating a comforting place for you to unwind after a day walking the South West Coastal Path. Sink into the plump sofas with your holiday read in front of the crackling fire, gather around the family-style dining table to enjoy home-cooked dinners, and settle on the terrace with a glass of locally-produced wine and watch the tide roll in. Speaking of the tide, spend a day on the sands of Grunta Beach, or visit Woolacombe, where you can try your hand at surfing and paddleboarding. There are endless hiking trails in the area too, so pull on your walking boots and set about this AONB’s abundant surroundings. After a day spent on the beach, you can take a soak in the bathtub before settling down for an evening in the garden. Perhaps you’ll tuck into fish and chips while watching the windsurfers dance in front of the sunset.
