Property code: OC-SPINDM

Spindrift is a beautifully refurbished, semi-detached house, which is located in Mortehoe village and within walking distance of Rockham Bay and Morte Point. With great sea views, a decked patio, outside shower and enclosed lawned garden, it offers superb holiday living for six people and two dogs. The large open-plan living/kitchen/diner room has comfy leather settees, a large dining table capable of seating the whole group together and floor to ceiling patio doors opening out onto the decked patio. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to rustle up a home-cooked meal and its nearby utility room has a useful extra sink. A shower room completes the accommodation downstairs whilst upstairs there three good-sized bedrooms – one with an en-suite shower room and one with a private balcony – and a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. Outside, Spindrift has a large drive capable of parking four cars and a fantastic outdoor space which includes a lawn, decked patio and an outdoor shower.

Mortehoe village centre with its Norman Church is a short stroll away and has two pubs, chip shop, takeaway, bistro and tearooms.  There is also a Post Office, village store and children's play area in the grounds of Mortehoe Heritage centre which recounts the areas rich maritime history.  Mortehoe is the starting point for many scenic walks along this dramatic stretch of coastline. Just south of the village lying at the foot of the cliffs, and reached only on foot, is Grunta beach.  This hidden gem is great for swimming and rockpooling.  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.

Lovely property, very well equipped and located close to village for food and a few drinks. Village also has a PO for newspapers and we can recommend the Fish & Chip shop and takeaway. Easy walk to Woolacombe but a bit of a climb back. Plenty of parking but only slight downside was its a bit awkward to get out of if you have a big car.
