Overview

This wonderful four bedroom house in the heart of Shaldon is an ideal base for family holidays on the South Devon coast, offering a balanced combination of a Georgian character and contemporary interior charm. It benefits from a fully equipped spacious kitchen diner, comfortable layout and furnishings throughout the house, as well as private parking, an enclosed courtyard garden with private hot tub, and four spacious bedrooms which make up the sleeping accommodation.

In years gone by, Royal Standard House operated as a local family pub in the heart of Shaldon, but more recently has been converted to a bright and spacious home from home, laid out over 3 floors whilst still enjoying its central location, in close proximity to local cafes, pubs and restaurants, as well as the iconic red sands of Shaldon Beach. Take the ferry from Shaldon over to the seaside town of Teignmouth and enjoy restaurants, cafes, pubs, seafood, shops, theatre, seafront and Pier.

Why not attend one of the many events in the area like the Shaldon Regatta, Torbay Air Show, Teignmouth Air show, Devon County Show and there are many various local food and music festivals to enjoy.

Loads of room, even for a large party, everything you need if you plan to cook, stairs if youre getting on a bit might be an issue, otherwise excellent.

The tumble dryer wasnt working properly, there was no door handle on the inside of one of the bedrooms so a risk of being shut in. It had been placed in a drawer but needs mending. Also the hot tub was very low on water and quite murky. Finally, we had been left with no tea towels or any toilet paper at all on arrival.

What a fantastic holiday home which was like a tardis, with so much room for all of our guests. Even a friend of ours, who has a beach hut nearby, was amazed at the size, and quality of the house. We are also pleased, as my mum left behind a hearing aid that was returned without fuss.
