Cottage to rent with a hot tub in Westward Ho!, Devon

Accommodation details

Wake to the sound of seagulls and breathe in the salty sea air at this modern property within half a mile of the beach. Great for active families, it's right next to the Royal North Devon Golf Club in the popular coastal village of Westward Ho! It's also brimming with luxury features to make your stay extra comfortable, from underfloor heating to a private hot tub in the back garden.

The property is furnished to an exceptionally high standard and has a reverse-level layout to make the most of the views, with the open-plan living area on the first floor. On a sunny morning, pull back the large bifold doors and step out on to the balcony to enjoy a cup of tea or light breakfast while gazing out over Northam Burrows Country Park towards the sea.

Downstairs, both bedrooms have Smart TVs so there shouldn't be any disagreements over what to watch, while French doors lead out into the garden from the en-suite king-size room. The outside shower with hot water is ideal for rinsing off wetsuits, surfboards or even sandy paws if you have your dogs with you.

Enjoy long walks around the country park, half a mile from the property, keeping an eye out for rare plants and wildlife as you go. Keen golfers also have a chance to play on England's oldest links course here. A unique pebble ridge links the park to the beach, which stretches out for 2 miles.

There's lots to keep the kids entertained, whether it's building sandcastles, scouring rock pools, playing in the surf or flying kites.
