Holiday cottage in Westward Ho! (2 miles E), Devon

Accommodation details

Unwind in the Devon sunshine out in the lawned garden at this unique, single-storey holiday home on the fringes of Bideford. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment offers modern accommodation with an abundance of character. With the heart of the bustling town about 1 mile from the hideaway, and the beautiful, sandy beach at Westward Ho! 2 miles away, this enticing abode could be perfect for those seeking to enjoy everything about this corner of the county. Follow the steps down then open the French doors to let yourselves into the holiday home.

Hang your jackets and leave walking boots or flip-flops in the hall before heading through to the lounge/kitchen/diner. Make a cup of coffee to enjoy at the breakfast bar. Then prepare a tasty lunch with the fresh produce you have bought in town and set the table for your family or friends. Spend your evenings reclining on the soft seating, perhaps in front of the Smart TV; during the warmer months, pull the doors on to the garden open so you can wander outside.

There is a family bathroom at the property, as well as a super-king-size bedroom and a double with wooden stairs leading up to a single bed. Enjoy breakfast out on the covered veranda. Cook summer on the BBQ while the children play on the grass and sit round the fire pit star gazing on summer evenings.

There is off-road parking here for one car Venture 2.5 miles to the pretty fishing village of Appledore to potter in the shops and in the high season catch the ferry over to Instow, where there's a beach. Eager walkers may wish to pick up the South West Coast Path at Westward Ho! and follow it for 11 miles to the charming cliffside village of Clovelly.
