Cottage to rent in Croyde, Devon

Accommodation details

Book a seaside holiday at this dreamy coastal apartment directly on the beach at Croyde, Devon's surfing mecca. There's a gate leading straight to the sand so you can start the day with a bracing swim or a gentle stroll along the shoreline. With one king-size room plus a single bedroom, this sweet holiday home is ideal for a romantic trip for two or a small family.

The inside of this attractive property is decorated in relaxing colours with wall lighting and seaside-inspired artwork. In the open-plan living area, you can stretch out on the sofas and watch some TV, perhaps opening the French doors to let some salty sea air in. There's a wooden table and chairs for enjoying meals together, plus a well-equipped modern kitchen for preparing them.

Why not pack up a yummy picnic, a blanket and enjoy them on the beach or clifftops nearby? Outside the accommodation, you'll have access to a shared lawned area where you can kick back at sunset with a cold beer, resting on the benches provided. There's plenty to discover in the surrounding area, whether that's wandering into Croyde village 1 mile away and having a nosey around its independent shops, or heading along the South West Coast path to the impressive Baggy Point headland 1.5 miles away.

You'll be within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so expect to be wowed by pretty sand dunes and lovely sea views during your stay. Why not hire a wetsuit and board and try out some surfing or stand-up paddleboarding, just like the locals? For more stunning scenery, Exmoor National Park, a nature lover's paradise of gorgeous moorland and deep wooded valleys, starts just 16 miles away.
