In the dim light of twilight, this cosy timber cabin glows, inviting you to warm yourself inside. And warm is the watchword, thanks to a traditional wood-burning stove and furry rug in the living room. With the fire crackling away, it’s hard to resist the little selection of holiday reads in the corner. During the day, French doors let the sunlight stream in brightening up the pretty, sky-blue kitchen. A farmhouse-style table in the centre of the room is a nice spot for breakfast. Both double beds are swathed in fluffy blankets, adding to the overall hygge feeling. In terms of location, you’re in the coastal town of Shaldon, home to bakeries, cafés, a village shop, nautical-themed pubs and wildlife-filled Ness Cove Beach all within walking distance. Just across the river sits Teignmouth with its Blue Flag sandy beach and buzzing harbourfront.
