Holiday home to rent in Hope Cove (1mls E), Devon

Accommodation details

With a children's play area, BBQ and pizza oven, there's plenty to keep you entertained and connected to the rolling countryside that surrounds you at this charming barn conversion just moments from the rugged coastline. Grab the local produce you've collected and head into the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room to rustle up a hearty meal and enjoy family time at the breakfast bar or around the dining table.

As day turns to dusk, fire up the roaring wood burner to cosy up on the comfy sofas for a film night around the Smart TV. Answer the call of bedtime upstairs to be met with two wonderful en-suite bedrooms, which both feature a calming neutral colour palette and are flooded with natural sunlight from the barn-style windows.

Throw open the front door to the shared patio area to soak up the last of the day's sun and head down to the shared BBQ area that features a pizza oven and plenty of seating to admire your unspoilt countryside surroundings. There is also table tennis available and a brilliant outdoor play area that children will love discovering. Nestled into a sheltered cove behind Bolt Tail, Hope Cove less than a mile away retains the atmosphere of an unspoilt fishing village and features two secluded, quiet sandy stretches perfect for a relaxing afternoon soaking up the sun and swimming through the calm turquoise waters.

Based in Kingsbridge in an Area of Outstanding Natural, try out paddle boarding at Waterborn 5 miles away, the UK's biggest stand-up paddle boarding school. Back on dry land, join up with the magnificent South West Coast Path just under 4 miles away to journey along the Salcombe to Bolt Head walk, passing through an enchanted landscape of rugged coastline along the Salcombe estuary.
