For many of us living in a waterside property is a dream come true and with some of our stunning Devon cottages by the sea you can live that dream…for a week or two anyway! There's something magically alluring about the seas' ever changing moods and colours. The noise of waves, tidal flow or the simple lapping of water against the shore can both sooth, excite and recharge you.
Of course it's magnetic attraction provides us with the opportunity to try a multitude of water-based activities from crabbing, surfing, fishing or sailing. Many of us choose to simply sit and watch the world float by.
