A charming and traditional cottage, close to the delights of Paignton.
Escape to the seaside with your other half or small family plus one canine companion and stay in this charming coastal-themed cottage. The classic Devon harbour town of Paignton has a friendly and lively atmosphere with plenty of amenities and attractions for all the family. If you’d like a day of peace and tranquillity, there are beaches, lakes, woodlands and gardens all within 2 miles. After a busy day of exploring, enjoy a homecooked meal at the dining table or relax with a glass of wine in the garden.
Inside the property is a homely and comfortable lounge with loving attention to detail where you can sit on the Ercol sofa or one of the armchairs in front of the TV. Continue into the dining room, which is an intimate space with a table and four chairs. The kitchen is compact with bright and cheerful colours and plenty of natural light streaming in through the sash window. Climb the stairs to reach the lovely family bathroom and two bedrooms – a double with an en-suite and a twin room. Outside, relax in the small gravel courtyard with garden furniture.
