Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 6 - Westward Ho!, Devon

Part of an expanding development of 35 detached holiday homes and just half a mile from the beach, this is the perfect property for a family seeking a great seaside holiday. Its cool and contemporary design offers a stylish alternative to the traditional beach holiday and makes the whole experience extra special. Dog-friendly, with a lawn and terrace where all the family can relax, but canines are not invited into the private hot tub!

The development is designed to give guests a feeling of space, and this continues inside the property. Bright colours with a coastal hint run through the open-plan living space which offers a cooling retreat during the day when the doors are open out to the garden, and a cosy sanctuary at night with the wood burner fired up and the TV on. The master bedroom, like the other bedrooms, has a stylish boutique-hotel feel and as an extra-special treat, offers its own private balcony with far-reaching sea views through huge floor to ceiling windows.

A mile's walk brings you into Westward Ho! with its seaside shops and ever-popular ice cream van. An expanse of green sits above the beach looking out to the spectacular Atlantic Ocean, the perfect place to enjoy a fish and chip supper.

Offering access to long beach walks as well as the South West Coast Path, there is also a great opportunity for walking along The Tarka Trail from Bideford, 4 miles away. Visit the steep cobbled streets of the privately-owned village of Clovelly, 13 miles, and on the way back, have some fun at The Milky Way Adventure Park.
