Overlooking the breath taking coastline of Teignmouth, this family-friendly seaside retreat boasting panoramic views is perfect for anyone craving an escape to Devon’s rugged coastal and countryside scenery, and all it has to offer. Situated on the edge of the mouth of the River Teign, the coastal town of Teignmouth is a haven for anyone looking to answer the call of the coast. Enjoy a variety of water sports at Teignmouth Town Beach or enjoy a spot of fishing at Teignmouth River Beach, both reached within 2 miles. Take a ride on Britain’s oldest passenger ferry (2 miles), dating back to Saxon times, across the river to the picturesque fishing village of Shaldon (2.5 miles) to ramble around its maze of narrow twisting streets lined with thatched cottages and listed Georgian homes. The magnificent walking country of Dartmoor National Park can be reached within 15 miles and why not join in the local Parkrun on a flat and fast Teignmouth seafront every Saturday morning at 9am! Powderham Castle provides a lovely day out as does Haldon Forest for bike trails galore and the fabulous Go Ape high rope adventures, hidden in the woods, or visit the Belvedere. Sidmouth has a lovely long esplanade, beach and bespoke shops and boutiques. Exeter offers the Cathedral or Underground Tunnels for a day trip, or a paddle along the river from the quay in kayaks or on paddleboards.
At the end of a busy day, kick off your beach shoes in the welcoming entrance hallway before washing off sandy toes in the contemporary family shower room, which also leads to a handy utility room. Enjoying magnificent sea views, both of the two king-size bedrooms on this level provide a haven of serenity to retreat to; crisp, white linens ensure a peaceful rest. If you still have plenty of energy left, head upstairs to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Boasting breathtaking views along the coast stretching as far as Exmouth, Lyme Regis and the Jurassic Coastline all through an abundance of picture windows, this wonderfully social space not only embraces the beauty of your surrounding scenery but also features plenty of homely touches, including a wood burner, contemporary country cottage-style décor, and a sophisticated colour palette. Off the kitchen, you’ll find a cosy conservatory space, perfect for storing beach equipment. You’ll also find an en-suite king-size bedroom that features an additional bunk bed (suitable for children under 12 only) and a stylish family shower room on this level.
Catch some stunning sunsets and listen to the sounds of the sea as you enjoy a glass of something chilled on the beautiful balcony accessed from the first floor. The enclosed garden with a steep lawn and paved area is perfect for children to let off some steam before bedtime. Please note that even though the garden is enclosed, it is advised to keep dogs and children under supervision. There is private parking for three cars at the property.
