5 Bed Cottage in Westward Ho!

About this property

Offering beautiful panoramic views of the River Torridge and the surrounding valley, this beautiful detached property lies in an elevated position just a mile to the south of the bustling port town of Bideford. With ample space for up to ten guests, the impressive villa is set in gorgeous grounds and makes a fantastic holiday retreat for groups of friends and larger families exploring the area’s spellbinding countryside and glorious beaches. Within easy reach of the Tarka Trail, this bright and sympathetically updated retreat has been decorated in warm, relaxing shades and furnished in a chic, tasteful style, and features a delightful hot tub, a freestanding roll-top bath, a well-stocked games room and a stunning raised terrace overlooking the estuary.

Lying behind electric gates, the house is at the top of the drive and is surrounded by beautiful grounds. Stepping inside the property, the welcoming entrance hall leads through to the pretty lounge which offers stunning estuary views and an elegant dining table perfect for enjoying family feasts. This floor also has a charming snug with a Smart TV and wood burner, as well as a boot room, utility room and a beautifully equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar and Smart TV. Going up to the first floor, you will find four delightful bedrooms – three king-size and a twin. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms, while the remaining rooms have access to the family bathroom. The final bedroom is on the second floor: a spacious suite with a king-size bed, dressing room and beautiful en-suite bathroom. Outside, the large garage doubles as a games room where you can play table tennis, pool and darts. Leading out from the lounge, a cantilevered deck is enclosed by railings and makes a lovely seating area perfect for dining alfresco and taking in the magnificent views. Steps lead down into the terraced and fenced garden with its lovely lawns and access to the surrounding woodland. There’s also a private patio area to the rear of the house with further seating and a bubbling hot tub for you to luxuriate in.
