Just across the hall from the kitchen is the downstairs cloakroom with washing machine. Upstairs the four bedrooms are beautifully furnished with coordinating bedding in a neutral palette.

Outside the property has a lovely lawned garden with views over the river and across the Teignmouth. Planted with pretty shrubs and flowers, there’s a patio area with table and chairs - perfect for a little alfresco dining in the Devon sunshine.

Golfing enthusiasts will enjoy the 18-hole golf course, the charming local conservation zoo is a must, as are the fabulous beaches and the Homeyards Botanical Gardens. Visit in August and join in the fun of the annual Shaldon Regatta, so be prepared to get swept up in the merriment!
