Garden Apartment, Hope Cove

About this property

The Garden Apartment is a lovely ground-floor apartment resting in Hope Cove, where stunning seaside views, a welcoming garden, and an inviting layout create a wonderful base for families or friends seeking a coastal escape. Set just moments from the shoreline, the property offers an immediate sense of ease, with the sound of the waves drifting across the garden and the promise of seaside adventures waiting each morning. Step inside to discover the kitchen/diner, a bright and practical space for preparing meals after days spent exploring the coast. The sitting room offers a relaxed setting for unwinding. Three bedrooms provide places to retreat to, with a double, twin, and quality full size bunks offering spaces to unwind.

The wet room, complete with a walk-in shower, adds convenience after sandy days on the beach. Outside, the garden becomes a highlight of the stay, with a patio for al fresco dining, a lawn for stretching out in the sunshine, and for evenings spent under the stars. The charcoal barbecue invites leisurely meals, while a close by beach ensures that the sea is never far from your plans. The surrounding area offers plenty to explore, with easy beach access, and good, local eateries right on your doorstep. Kingsbridge, with its waterside cafés, independent shops, and scenic estuary walks, is a short journey away and ideal for relaxed days out.

Salcombe provides a charming harbour, boutique shopping, and opportunities for boat trips along the coast. Further afield, Dartmouth offers historic streets, riverside views, and a selection of eateries perfect for lingering over local seafood. For those bringing their four-legged companions, dogs are allowed off-lead at Mouthwell at designated times, and nearby beaches offer a space to walk your pet with no restrictions. With its coastal setting and welcoming atmosphere, The Garden Apartment offers a delightful base for discovering the beauty of Hope Cove's shoreline.

The busy little town of Kingsbridge lies at the head of a marine estuary in the attractive South Hams area of South Devon. Kingsbridge is home to a range of lovely independent shops and coffee shops, as well as a 3-screen cinema and an award-winning pub. During the summer season there are estuary excursions by ferry to Salcombe which lies on the banks of the Kingsbridge Estuary, making it one of the prettiest towns in South Devon. Salcombe is famous for its outstanding coastal views, rolling countryside, and is a watersports paradise for kayaking, surfing, paddle boarding and powerboating. It is packed with boutique shops, high street brands and independent producers, restaurants serving freshly caught seafood, and Salcombe Gin and Ice cream! Kingsbridge is perfectly located as a base to enjoy the abundant wildlife in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (aonb), which also forms part of the South Devon Heritage Coast. Visitors can take a walk along the Kingsbridge Quay, wander through the narrow alleys off Fore Street or visit the Shambles in Totnes, an Elizabethan market arcade. Around the South Hams area there are picturesque ports, such as Dartmouth and Salcombe, together with sandy beaches at Blackpool Sands near Stoke Fleming and the two sandy beaches at Thurlestone. There are a host of small attractive villages in South Hams offering interesting pubs, local farm produce shops and pretty rows of cottages, plus further afield the waterfront city of Plymouth is a vibrant centre, housing the National Marine Aquarium, historic Barbican Quay and plenty of night life, including theatres, restaurants and bars. Kingsbridge can be easily reached by train to Totnes and then a local bus service which will take you to Kingsbridge town centre.
