Leylands

About this property

Leylands is a delightful late Victorian terraced house built for a sea captain, in a beautiful position in popular Salcombe. The property, which has been sympathetically renovated and furnished to a very high standard in recent years, has magnificent views of the harbour towards South Pool Creek and East Portlemouth, and is just a few minutes’ walk from the town centre and waterfront.

Arranged over two floors, the property is well equipped with baby/child friendly facilities, and with multiple living areas, it is excellent for those with older children who may want their own space. The open-plan kitchen/dining room is beautifully presented and equipped to a very high standard. There is also a delightful lounge with picture bay window offering an excellent view of the estuary, as well as a cosy second sitting room with two large sofas and an additional TV. Shower room on ground floor.

There are four first floor bedrooms: A master with wonderful estuary views, a King-size double bed and en suite with shower; a twin room with two single beds, a further double with a 4'6" bed, and finally a child’s bedroom with a set of bunk beds (only suitable for under 12's). In addition there is a recently renovated family bathroom on the first floor, and on the ground floor is a shower room.

To the rear of the house is a sloping garden and furnished sunny terrace, complete with a barbecue. A parking pass is provided for one car in the nearby long-stay car park (3 minutes' walk).

Leylands provides spacious, well-equipped family friendly accommodation, in a peaceful spot within easy reach of Salcombe’s amenities.

Leylands is featured in Junior Magazine online.

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.
