A few yards from Hallsands beach and the dramatic Start Bay coastline, Guillemot is a modern holiday home that oozes nautical charm. Furnished in a high end coastal style it has been designed to meet all the wants and needs of visitors to the South Hams whilst still feeling warm and welcoming.
From the coastal views when you wake to the underfloor heating to warm you up after a dip in the sea only 30 metres from the house, it’s an idyllic holiday home for families or groups of friends thanks to four bedrooms that sleep up to eight people. Guillemot sits right on the South West Coast Path for those wishing to explore the Coastline.
Downstairs, a large open hallway greets you with a double bedroom to the right offering sea views and a separate shower room to the left. This leads into an open plan kitchen with adjacent dedicated dining area where you can recount the day’s activities together. The kitchen is of a modern country style and is complete with contemporary amenities including a dishwasher. The dining area leads through french doors out onto the rear enclosed garden with countryside views of the fields.
From the downstairs hallway a staircase decorated with marine themed pictures leads you up to a welcoming lounge that takes advantage of it’s position offering expansive sea views to the East over Start Bay. With plenty of comfy seating and a wood burner that’s perfect for winter evenings by the fireside it truly is a delightful place to relax with family and friends.
The spacious Master bedroom is on the first floor and benefits from a King size bed, and en suite bathroom with freestanding bath. The two further bedrooms are on the second floor and each have two single beds. The single rooms are filled with light thanks to Velux windows and have use of a shower room off the hallway. There’s also a TV room to keep kids entertained.
A holiday in the South Hams is very much about the great outdoors, so it’s wonderful that Guillemot has plenty of space to relax in the garden. Outside the front there’s a terrace area overlooking Hallsands beach and with furniture provided. To the back of the property there’s an enclosed garden with a deck and more outdoor furniture for you to use.
Helpfully, there’s parking for up to three cars (a sought-after commodity in the South Hams) – one space is directly outside the property and two are in a nearby visitors’ bay. Meanwhile, Guillemot is just a short walk from the popular Cricket Inn at Beesands, and the beaches, water sports, shops, restaurants and local attractions of Salcombe and East Portlemouth are just a short drive away.
