The newly refurbished (winter 2021) studio apartment has an open plan living area with a comfortable pull down double bed and bespoke hand - built kitchen beautifully completed by Barnes at Ashburton and fitted with Miele and Neff appliances. There is one shower room. Outside, a balcony boasts stunning estuary views, towards South Pool Creek. ‘The Salcombe’ residents have exclusive use of a private outdoor swimming pool (seasonal), communal gardens and an allocated parking space per flat, and a mooring which is suitable for boats no more than 15ft.

Salcombe is a popular destination for watersports enthusiasts, walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea. There are several pretty beaches within a short distance, including North Sands and South Sands, plus the coves East Portlemouth on the opposite side of the estuary, just a short passenger ferry ride away. Also on your doorstep is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, coasteering, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe, take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking on the South West Coast path.

Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?
