  • "Lovely house well situated between Dawlish and Teignmouth."

    Well presented with all amenities one might need. Easy to walk to Dawlish (1.1 mile) or along the coastal path to Teignmouth (2.2m). There is some traffic noise from the nearby main road, noticeable at night with bedroom windows open, but this does not and should not spoil a lovely place to stay.

  • "Best holiday home we've ever stayed in!"

    The house is extremely modern and has everything you need. It was exceptionally clean, comfortable and furnished to high standards. Welcome pack was a treat too - yummy cookies, milk and fresh flowers. I usually pack tinfoil etc but there was no need, as it was supplied. The guest information folder was extremely handy too. Lots of necessary information listed. The house was in an excellent location. We took many trips out but you can easily walk into Dawlish. We will definitely be returning.

Enter through the gated community, you will be delighted by the spacious layout, making it a real social hub for easy and fun living.

Draw your attention to the luxurious, contemporary interior, enveloped around marvellous feature pieces that tell a story; the dining table sourced from Lithuania, sat resting on top of carpets from India, all purchased with attention and care.

Enter up the glass balustrade stairway, and into the additional snug, indulge in a spot of tranquillity on the sofa while the chef gets to work, accompanied by Vellux windows, making the natural lighting burst out in every corner.

Curtsey of the kitchen's modern interior, discover a host of appliances to rustle up a home-cooked meal or unpack a local takeaway.

When it's time to serve, take the dinner party natter to the dining table, crack open your favourite glass of wine and toast to an unforgettable holiday.

Afterwards, curl up on the sofa, with a feature fireplace adding a homely feel, while some evening entertainment begins on the Smart TV.

When sleep calls, retire in one of the two king-size bedrooms; both tastefully presented with a bright and airy feel as well as ample storage for the over-packers of your family!

Boasting an en-suite bathroom and Smart TV in each, giving you the ease of freshening up in peace, as well as indulging in your favourite show in the comfort of your bed.

Take your morning coffee out on the decking while energising yourself with the sea air and wonderful Devon scenery, amidst a chorus of birds on site.

With a plethora of beaches just a meander away, you’ll be able to tick each one off your bucket list, every day of your stay.

Catch a wave, discover rock pools and leave sandy footsteps everywhere you go, while admiring serene views of the landscape.

The quaint riverside setting of Dawlish known for black swans is a stroll away, boasting independent shopping facilities to grab a keepsake.

After taking in some of Devon’s beaches, local villages or the seclusion of Dartmoor, you may wish to venture further.

The property is accessible to Teignmouth and the Cathedral city of Exeter is a short drive or train fare away, with bars and eateries scattered around to savour a delicious cocktail or indulge in an evening of fine dining.

Brixham, Dartmouth, Torbay and Exmouth are also all in reach; sample a lunch at a gastro pub and enjoy a cream tea by the river.
