Property code: OC-SEAVI

Stunning sea views from this cottage make it a special place for holidays. The tidy Victorian terraced property sits just across from the National Trust headland of Morte Point with spectacular coastal views across to Hartland Point and out to Lundy Island. These views can also be enjoyed from the front area of decking where patio furniture gives the option for al fresco dining. There are also attractive countryside views from the rear as the cottage backs on to National Trust land. The roomy living area has a traditional stone fireplace with attractive brick trim creating an eye-catching focal point while the compact but functional kitchen is towards the rear of this open plan area. Beyond the kitchen is another patio area.

Mortehoe Heritage Centre recounts the area's rich maritime history. Mortehoe is the starting point for many scenic walks along this dramatic stretch of coastline. Just north of the village, and reached only on foot, is Rockham Beach lying at the base of the 100 foot cliff; an ideal location for a peaceful day on the sand. Another great beach nearby is Barricane beach just on the outskirts of the village. It’s a sandy cove perfect for families with low ledges that are great for jumping off. There’s also the wonderful, but seasonal, Barricane Beach café, serving up the distinctly un-Devon flavours of Sri Lanka. A short drive south takes you to Woolacombe, which has three miles of award-winning golden sands. Its beach has been voted number one in the UK by TripAdvisor guests for the last two years. It also holds the England For Excellence Gold Award for best family resort and was voted the Best British Beach in the Mail On Sunday. Lifeguards ensure safe swimming during the summer. However it’s not just the beach that brings visitors to Woolacombe. There's a wide selection of restaurants, teashops and bars

Wow! We had the best week ever in Sea View. The cottage was cosy and welcoming like a warm hug. The views were spectacular and the location was brilliant. We were out, busy every day but coming 'home' was just lovely. The cottage was comfy and well equipped and the beds were great. We really didn't want to come home we loved this place.

A comfortable cottage, with two sitting out areas. Ideally located for the small village of Mortehoe, with several places offering food, with easy access to many local walks and only a short walk from Woolacombe with plenty of shops.

Nice little cottage in an excellent location with lovely sea views. We had a lovely week in Mortehoe, just think it needs some TLC to bring it up to a standard for the rental price.

We loved staying at Seaview cottage in Mortehoe. Lovely views of the sea every morning and we enjoyed walking the coastal paths to Lee bay or Woolacombe. There are two pubs close by where we had good meals and a few handy shops to get a few items. Would love to stay here again.

Wonderful location, lovely cottage. Only small points which I give her incase they're of use; we were unable to open the sash windows to any extent (perhaps they're meant to be like that?) and the decking in the back yard needs repair- rotten in places with nail heads protruding so not good for dog paws or bare feet. Otherwise wonderful. Thank you Read morevery much. Hide
