Set on the fringes of Bideford and surrounded by the North Devon countryside, this spacious holiday home overlooks the Torridge Estuary. Sleeping up to six guests across three bedrooms, it’s the perfect choice for families planning days of coast and country adventures together. Bideford’s charming town centre is within 2 miles, offering a good range of independent shops, cafes and pubs, as well as peaceful green spaces and quayside walks. Further along the coast, Westward Ho! (4 miles) is a great choice for traditional seaside days, water sports and scenic walks along the South West Coast Path. Up the River Torridge, the pretty fishing village of Appledore (5 miles) offers winding streets lined with galleries and eateries, while across the water, Instow (5 miles) charms with its estuary views and chic pubs.

Stepping inside, you'll find a warm and homely interior designed with comfort and practicality in mind. Kick off your sandy shoes in the storage space beneath the stairs and walk through to the social heart of the home: the fantastic open-plan kitchen/diner. Filled with natural light thanks to the bi-fold doors opening onto the garden, this spacious room combines a contemporary kitchen and dining area in one stylish space. Find everything needed here for cooking up holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed at the wooden dining table inside or alfresco out on the terrace. After each meal, gather in the lounge to unwind as you sink into the soft seating, flick through the Smart TV and bask in the glow of the wood burner during chillier stays. Completing the ground floor is a handy utility space with a washing machine. At the end of each day away, head upstairs and choose from three restful bedrooms: two king-size rooms and a cosy twin. All the bedrooms feature Smart TVs for lazy mornings and are served by a chic family shower room with a walk-in rainfall shower.

Outside, accessed from the kitchen/diner, the generous garden space is one of the property’s highlights. Here, an elevated decked terrace overlooks the surrounding countryside and features soft seating, outdoor dining furniture and a charcoal BBQ for al fresco group feasts. Beyond the decking, a huge enclosed garden allows children and pets to run free while the adults enjoy evening tipples on the terrace. Completing the property is private driveway parking for two cars.
