Tucked away along a peaceful private driveway on the outskirts of the village of Thurlestone, this beautifully elevated coastal retreat offers a truly enchanting escape in the South Hams, South Devon. As you arrive through the grounds and step into the courtyard entrance, a sense of calm settles in — the promise of sea air, open skies and unforgettable coastal moments.

A staircase leads you to the first floor where the property unfolds into a bright, open‑plan living space. Here, the room is framed by expansive picture windows stretching the full width of the home, capturing a breathtaking panorama from Thurlestone’s sweeping coastline across to Burgh Island and beyond. Whether you’re enjoying a slow breakfast or watching the sun melt into the horizon, this view becomes the backdrop to every moment.

The well‑equipped kitchen offers generous preparation space, an elevated oven, induction hob, fridge‑freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and a full range of crockery and utensils — everything you need for relaxed coastal dining. A family‑sized dining table comfortably seats six, perfect for long, laughter‑filled meals after days spent exploring the South West Coast Path.

Opposite the kitchen, the living area invites you to unwind. A large, comfortable sofa faces the smart TV, ideal for cosy evenings in. Beside it, a charming snug corner — complete with soft cushions, a reading lamp and a welcoming sofa — offers a peaceful nook for quiet moments. On cooler nights, the gentle glow of the electric fire adds warmth and atmosphere.

Just off the lounge, the first bedroom provides a delightful bunk room — a dream for children seeking a holiday “sleepover” of their own.

A long hallway leads towards the rear of the property. The family bathroom sits to the left, featuring a toilet, basin with storage, and a spacious walk‑in electric shower. Through the adjoining door, the second bedroom offers twin single beds, countryside views through double windows, bedside tables with lamps, and a wardrobe for easy storage.

At the end of the corridor awaits the serene master en‑suite bedroom. With a king size bed, generous wardrobe space and long windows framing the rolling landscape, this room is designed for rest and restoration. The en‑suite bathroom is a sanctuary in itself — a beautifully styled space with a bath positioned to overlook the countryside, a walk‑in shower, basin and toilet. It’s the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring the coast.

Outside, a large parking area sits just beyond the courtyard, offering easy access for guests. From the grounds, you can join the South West Coast Path, making this property a dream base for walkers and nature lovers. Thurlestone village is a gentle stroll away, and for those who enjoy a longer wander, the beach can also be reached on foot — rewarding you with golden sands, rock pools and the timeless charm of the South Devon shoreline.

This Thurlestone retreat is ideal for families, couples and friends seeking coastal accommodation in the South Hams, combining comfort, space and unforgettable sea views. Whether you’re planning a summer adventure or a peaceful winter escape, this light‑filled home offers the perfect setting to experience the very best of South Devon’s coastline.
