Hillview Cottage - Beautiful Coastal Character Holiday Cottage
Cottage with 2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, Garden
A beautiful character cottage dating from the 16th century and situated in the heart of Saunton within a short distance of the beach. This Grade II listed property, built in 1642, is a conversion of what was originally the old shippen barn to the main farmhouse and linked cottages, one of which is mentioned in the Domesday Book.
Located in Devon, voted the most beautiful county in England by the Country Life Magazine, this cottage is within easy reach of breathtaking coastal walks, museums, potteries, railway, zoo, honey farm, cider making, glass blowing and even a gnome reserve!
The cottage is full of charm with exposed beamed ceilings, wooden floors, thick wooden latch doors and white washed walls, yet offers all modern conveniences.
The accommodation comprises large entrance porch leading into a spacious lounge/dining room (lounge pictured) with gas-fired woodburner stove, comfortable double sofa bed, TV, DVD, video and Sky Free SAT. Wooden breakfast bar to fitted kitchen with quarry-tiled floor, over-head spot lighting, cooker, w/dryer, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer.
Feature staircase to two bedrooms with exposed beams and sloping ceilings: 1 double and 1 twin room, both with TV. Generous bathroom with overhead spot-lighting and wooden floors. Beautiful gas-fired woodburner stove for cosy out of season getaways.
Small private garden and patio with bistro set for morning tea/coffee. Huge open-plan lawned garden with wooden picnic tables and outlook to the sand dunes shared by the single barn cottages.
In the evenings relax in the small conservatory, visit a local attraction or sit in the cottage's garden areas and enjoy the view.
Note: Free Saunton Sands Parking Ticket.
