Perched in the hamlet of Galmpton in the South Hams, this welcoming stone cottage is the perfect bolthole from which to explore the nearby walking paths. A countryside stroll of less than 1 mile through fields brings you to the fishing village of Hope Cove with access to spectacular beaches and the South West Coast Path, as well as a friendly local pub. Spend sunny days on the large, sandy beach at Thurlestone (5 miles), which is popular for its surf and unspoilt surroundings, or head for Bantham, (7.5 miles) for more fun by the sea. Explore the stunning beaches and estuary at Salcombe (within 4 miles) – a renowned foodie haven with a tempting array of independent shops. The market town of Kingsbridge (5 miles) makes for a lovely day out, with plenty of shops, cafes and leisure facilities including a swimming pool and a cinema.
Step inside this gorgeous stone property from the pleasant courtyard, and you’ll find yourself in the welcoming open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. A wood burner keeps the lounge area cosy on cooler evenings, with a Smart TV inviting you to curl up and watch your favourite shows after busy days out on the coast. Cooking is easy in the well-equipped kitchen, which has a breakfast bar with four stools, ideal for enjoying your morning coffee and pastries. Eat your meals all together around the wooden dining table overlooking the courtyard, which doubles up as the perfect spot for board games or an evening tipple. Completing the ground floor is a handy WC. Stairs lead up from the hallway to two lovingly furnished bedrooms: a cosy twin with an en-suite shower room, and a bright double with an en-suite bathroom. Both bedrooms are equipped with Smart TVs to help you make the most of lazy morning lie ins.
Outside, a shared patio with outdoor seating is a lovely space to soak up the sunshine. A short walk away, you’ll find an inviting shared area with BBQ, pizza oven and outdoor seating where you can while away warm evenings under the stars. Children will love the impressive outdoor play area with plenty of space for ball games. Table tennis is also available for some friendly competition during your holiday.
