The two bedrooms include a double and a single and they share a bathroom. To the outside is an enclosed courtyard garden with furniture, making it a good place to relax after a day exploring the area. Stroll to the harbour to watch the yachts or wander down to the beach to enjoy a coffee with a view. The English Riviera boasts several beaches including Meadfoot Beach, a fifteen minute walk from your cottage, or Oddicombe Beach in Babbacombe, reached by a quirky old clifftop railway. Further up the coast, the traditional seaside town of Teignmouth can be found within twenty minutes’ drive, with its old-fashioned arcades, children’s playground and safe sandy beach set near the old harbour.
