About this property
Set in the heart of Salcombe and with views across the estuary, Ferry Watch is aptly named as you sit and watch the ferry busily to and fro.
A beautifully styled duplex apartment set over two floors, this fab holiday home is perfect for families or groups of friends.
Oh what a glorious position – right in the heart of Salcombe but with a peaceful outside area for al fresco dining on balmy days, or relaxing in the sunshine with a good book. With views across the Salcombe estuary from each floor, Ferry Watch is aptly named as you sit and watch the ferry busily to and fro.
A beautifully styled duplex apartment situated over two floors, this is a fab holiday home for families or groups of friends. And getting to the golden sandy beaches on the other side couldn’t be easier – simply cross the road and hop onto the ferry. Or if you need to quench your thirst, the waterfront Ferry Inn is right on your doorstep.
Walking up the steps to the house from street level, you will see the terraces a the back of Ferry Watch where there is an outdoor dining area, comfortable seating corner and a hanging egg seat (don’t all fight at once). A charcoal BBQ is on hand for sizzling sausages after a day on the beach.
Entering the house into the hallway, turn right into the open plan kitchen and dining area. There is a very useful utility area off the well-equipped kitchen with downstairs loo and laundry facilities.
Up two steps from the dining area is a beautiful sitting room with heavenly sofas to crash out on. On this level is also a king size bedroom with en suite shower room.
From the hallway and up the staircase is the rest of the sleeping accommodation. A well-sized twin room is first on your left, followed by a king size bedroom; both have wonderful estuary views. At the furthest end is a bedroom with three single beds; a sure fire hit with children.
1 x well behaved pooch is very welcome at an additional charge

The apartment was beautiful and in a fantastic location in the centre of Salcombe, perfect for 8 of us on a girl’s weekend away to enjoy. We could walk to local cafes, mooch around the shops, have a gin flight at the distillery and then come back and plonk on the sofa with some wine and great conversation. Perfect apartment!

Everything about the property is perfect! The open plan living dining space was great for us (a group of 9 friends) and we thoroughly enjoyed having breakfast in the sun on the decking. Location is in the heart of Salcombe, we loved waking up and being able to see the water from the house.
