4 Bedroom Cottage in Woolacombe

Escape to the North Devon coast in this spacious holiday home just outside Woolacombe. Sleeping six guests and with a choice of social spaces, it’s the perfect base for large families and groups of friends. Woolacombe (1.5 miles) is a vibrant coastal village with a range of independent eateries, along with gift stores, boutiques, and surf shops to potter around. The village’s star attraction is its 3-mile stretch of golden sand, perfect for family picnics, beach games, or sunset strolls along the shoreline. The beach is also a hot spot for water sports, particularly surfing. The long-distance South West Coast Path passes through the village, offering spectacular clifftop walks with far-reaching views – the stretch towards Morte Point is particularly stunning. Further afield, enjoy a relaxed afternoon ambling around the surfing village of Croyde (6 miles), or head into the historic market town of Barnstaple (13 miles) for a spot of retail therapy.

The detached retreat is decorated in a contemporary style, with little nods to the coastal setting in the accessories and artwork. Enter the property via the conservatory that overlooks the garden. Here, you’ll find a comfortable sofa – the perfect place to sit with a coffee in the morning, as you plan your day. This room also houses a large, wooden dining table where you can all gather for mealtimes together. From the conservatory, bi-fold doors open onto a stylish kitchen, equipped with everything needed for a successful self-catering getaway. Heading further into the house, you’ll find a snug with comfortable seating set around a Smart TV and behind the wood-panelled wall, there is a convenient ground-floor shower room. The snug leads to the main lounge, with feature wood burner, lighting and homely touches for cosy nights in. Gather here, at the end of an action-packed day, to enjoy a movie night around the Smart TV. Completing the ground floor is an inviting single bedroom and a double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. The two remaining double bedrooms are upstairs, nestled in the eaves, and both boast distant sea views. One of the bedrooms also has a little den area with a TV that children will adore. Rounding off this level is a refreshing family bathroom. Please note, the upstairs bedrooms have sloping ceilings, and you may experience restricted head height in some areas.

Outside, unwind in the sunshine in the large, south facing enclosed garden. Adjacent to the house is a raised area with artificial grass, where you can sit with a glass of wine or share an al fresco supper in the summer months. Beyond this is a lawn with ample space for children and dogs to play. The property has private parking for three cars.
