The space
Lovingly restored throughout, this characterful cottage offers a unique and cosy base from which to enjoy the wonderful charms of Shaldon.
The property has an eclectic style, and comfortably sleeps up to 4 in the two stylish, generously sized bedrooms.
Decorated throughout in an interesting range of Farrow & Ball colours, the cottage combines original features such as Bakelite light switches and freestanding Victorian radiators whilst providing modern day comfort.
The front entrance steps lead into the ground floor hallway complete with old mariner’s lamp overhead. Guests can sit back and relax in the cosy living room. Fitted with upcycled parquet flooring and benefiting from a comfortable sofa, mismatched armchairs and squishy cushions, Sky digital flat screen TV with DVD player, pretty window seat, handmade coffee table, and cosy lighting, the room provides all the comforts of home. There is a newly installed woodburner, so guests can snuggle down and watch the flames dance when it is cold and wet outside, a starter pack of logs, kindling and firelighters will be made available for you. The cottage is also conveniently equipped with free Wi-Fi access, a Bose wifi speaker and a selection of books, DVDs and old fashioned board games.
The separate dining room is ideally suited for gatherings of up to six, where you can enjoy family meals or games in the evening (or during the inevitable damp day)
To the rear of the cottage, a fitted kitchen enables you to rustle up tasty homemade meals. Featuring a ceramic sink, cooker hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, electric kettle, fridge freezer, washing machine, toaster and a full range of crockery and quality cooking equipment; everything you could need.
A stable door from the kitchen leads out to the walled courtyard, with a table & chairs set underneath pretty ‘fairground’ festoon lights; a place to enjoy memorable summer evenings and ambient alfresco dining. A handy side gated passage leads from the front of the property directly into the courtyard, perfect for dropping off sandy beach paraphernalia to the back door without the hassle of carrying it through the cottage. There is sufficient space for you to store your bicycles or paddle-boards safely.
From the entrance hall, a steep staircase with a double hand rail - leads to the first floor. You will find two spacious bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom, meaning the upstairs offers a practical layout to suit either couples holidaying together or adults with children.
The master bedroom offers a comfortable space in which to unwind. The king size bed sits on weathered floorboards and is dressed in quality bed linen. Enjoy a good night’s sleep and well deserved lie-in, further enhanced by stylish blackout blinds throughout.
The second bedroom also has a unique identity with a striking bespoke driftwood headboard, and a plump window seat. The zip & link king size bed converts to two singles if required.
The smart ‘metro’ tiled bathroom features a handcrafted copper towel rail and industrial steel porthole mirror. Old Pepsi crates used as shelves add an interesting touch to the sleek fitted bath tub & shower, WC and wash basin.
Please be aware that the outside steps and steep stairs may provide an element of challenge for the very young or those with mobility issues.
