  • Contemporary penthouse apartment located just off the sea wall with a balcony overlooking the waves
  • Steps from the golden sandy beach and unique pebble ridge at Westward Ho!
  • A stone’s throw from the village’s pubs, shops, restaurants and amusements
  • Wonderful walks to be enjoyed along the nearby South West Coast Path with breath-taking coastal scenery
Property code: OC-ATHEI

Sitting just off the sea wall, means that waves are lapping just metres below your third floor balcony from where you can enjoy the 2 miles of Blue Flag, golden sandy beach with its unique pebble ridge. A stone's throw from the village amenities including pubs, shops, restaurants and amusements to entertain children of all ages. Westward Ho! benefits from a surf school and England's oldest golf club, Royal North Devon, that stretches out on to the Northam Burrows Country Park, protected from the sea by the pebble ridge, and offering some of the finest walks through the dunes and on the South West Coast Path, which runs along the seafront. The village takes its name from Charles Kingsley's historical novel set in Bideford. On the cliff behind is the lovely walking area of Kipling Tor named after the author Rudyard Kipling, who attended the former United Services College in the village. Other nearby points of interest include the fishing village of Appledore, The Big Sheep, Dartington Crystal and RHS Rosemoor Gardens.

Split over the second and third floors of the building, this chic apartment is full of natural light thanks to the extensive full length windows that provide beautiful views of the beach and ocean beyond. On the top floor, the spacious lounge/kitchen/diner boasts wooden floors, high ceilings and panoramic beach vistas. The contemporary kitchen contains an integrated oven, halogen hob, fridge, freezer, microwave, dishwasher and washer/dryer. Enjoy a meal with a view from the dining table beyond before settling in for the night in the lounge area, which features stylish seating and Smart TV. Downstairs on the second floor you will find two spacious bedrooms and a bathroom with shower over bath. The master king-size bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room with WC and you will find the twin bedroom next door.

Enjoy meals and drinks al fresco as you step from the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner out to a large balcony with garden furniture.

  • 2 bedrooms - 1 king-size and 1 twin
  • 1 shower room and 1 bathroom with shower over bath
  • Integrated oven, halogen hob, fridge, freezer, microwave, dishwasher and washer/dryer
