Pet friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 2 - Woolacombe, Devon

Gaze out across the stunning sights of the North Devon coast from this stylish and airy apartment in Woolacombe. Whisk your loved one and two canine companions away for a romantic retreat to the seaside, where you can swim, sunbathe, and join the scenic coastal trails for which the area is famous. It's ideal, come rain or come shine!

After tiring days of strolls along the coast, this airy open-plan apartment is the perfect place to return home to. Leave sandy boots in the porch and enter the lounge, where you can throw open the bi-folding doors and feel the warm sea breeze whip through the apartment. The beautifully styled kitchen has a breakfast bar for enjoying meals on the go, while the dining table takes advantage of the fabulous sea views.

Steal a few private moments by relaxing on the comfy sofa with a glass of bubbles, or take it out to the veranda, where you can admire crystal clear waters and rolling hillsides. There's also a BBQ here, should you fancy an al fresco feast. Treat yourself to a bubble bath when you want to soothe aching muscles before the king-size bed beckons you for a great night's sleep.

A stay at this stylish property would only be complete with a wander down to the award-winning shores of Woolacombe Beach. Less than half a mile away, this water sports capital offers visitors the chance to surf and swim in shimmering waves and recline on golden sands. For a change of scenery, hop aboard the South West Coast Path and follow the route to the south, eventually reaching Croyde (6 miles), another sandy gem in North Devon's crown.

Swap the coast for the countryside with a trip to Exmoor National Park (6.5 miles), where rugged moorland makes for some memorable walks with your beau and waggy-tailed friends.
