About this property
Resting close to the beach in the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, 38 Venn Park is a beautiful, detached bungalow in Stoke Fleming. The property sleeps six in three bedrooms, plus two well-behaved pets, with plenty of outdoor space, excellent facilities, and the best of Devon's coast and countryside on your doorstep. Plenty of off-road parking space greets you on arrival down a peaceful cul-de-sac, before climbing the steps to your holiday home. Be greeted by a sleek, open-plan living space, sure to be the social hub of your staycation; rustle up your favourite meals in the fully equipped kitchen area with an electric range cooker, large fridge/freezer, and a dishwasher. Feel the warmth of underfloor heating on your feet as you set the dining table to toast to your retreat and catch up with loved ones over a hearty dinner. Thoughtfully furnished with artwork, cushions and throws, the sitting area is a snug space with two sofas to relax and choose a film on the Smart TV, while the woodburner gently crackles nearby; a spot your pet will surely love! Open the French doors to let the outside in on summer evenings, and why not catch the rest of the sunshine from the front terrace? You'll also have your own private, enclosed rear garden with plenty of lawn space to play with your dogs, dine alfresco or kick back with a good book. After busy beach days or coastal hikes, return to a pristine bathroom to freshen up, whether that's with a bubble bath or a hot shower, while the heated rail keeps your towel warm. Make yourself at home in one of three bedrooms, including a master king-size with a Juliet balcony and a contemporary en-suite, another king-size, and a twin, each beautifully appointed with ample storage space. Explore your surroundings by heading into Stoke Fleming where The Green Dragon pub and Radius 7 restaurant are perfect for when you don't feel like cooking, as well as a village shop providing the essentials; pack your towels and head to the stunning Blackpool Sands, a Blue Flag and family-friendly beach for sunbathing, kayaking and a café. Those seeking the great outdoors have spectacular coastal paths to explore, as well as Little Dartmouth, a National Trust nature reserve, and plenty more secluded, sandy coves. Nearby is the historic town of Dartmouth with a 15th-century castle overlooking the River Dart, whilst the seaside town of Paignton has everything for a family fun day out; discover attractions along Paignton Pier, visit Paignton Zoo Environmental Park, or simply relax along a sandy beach. If you'd like to learn more about local history, Salcombe is further south with a local Maritime Museum and the ruins of Fort Charles. Make 38 Venn Park your next home-from-home for pet-friendly accommodation in Devon.

Jayne
Well placed for everything the area has to offer. About 10 mins to Dartmouth in the car. Supermarket in same direction. Very comfortable for 3 adults - would struggle to sit anything more than 4 people to watch tv comfortably relaxed. Plenty of utensils and plates etc. Being in the shoulder season it was too warm for the underfloor heating to come on but with the rain it felt a bit chilly some evenings but not cold enough to light the log burner. Main bedroom and bathroom very nice. Family bathroom ready for some tlc but more than adequate. Beds very comfy with lovely linens etc. Nice and dark and quiet so good sleep all round. Great week and wouldnât hesitate to stay again if coming back to the area. Big warning- follow instructions to property as given - DO NOT rely on Sat nav - narrow lane is a nightmare. Navigate via the top end of Dartmouth if coming from the M5/A38.

Impressive spacious property. Clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Good comfy beds. We liked the choice of decking areas to sit out on. Good base for touring the area. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

The rooms are all very well proportioned and the master suite is an impressive size. The kitchen is well appointed and there are more than enough glasses, plates, items of cutlery etc as well as anything you need to be able to prepare most basic meals. The garden is also a generous size but my one piece of feedback is that it is not secure, so although the property is pet friendly you canât just let dogs out loose. We very much enjoyed our stay at Venn Park
