The Barn, 21 At The Beach - a cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Originally constructed to house the horse drawn carriages of wealthy Victorian visitors to the Tor Hotel in the mid to late 1800's, this home is just metres from the beach and has been beautifully restored to offer guests stylish accommodation in a unique seaside position.

Step inside and you'll discover a sumptuous ground floor bedroom with its own luxurious en-suite shower room. Chunky window reveals nod to the building's humble past and lend a characterful charm to this room with a walk-in closet providing additional hanging space for coats and jackets.

A staircase leads up to the first floor which opens on to a bright, double volume open plan living and kitchen area, complete with original exposed roof timbers. Pendulum lighting and stylish soft furnishings make for a welcoming space, with sink in sofas and a large flat screen TV creating the perfect place to spend time and unwind in. The Shaker-style kitchen is well-equipped and ideal for preparing a homecooked meal or two in, and with a fabulous farm shop within just a short drive from the property, guests can whip up a few Devon-inspired creations of their own.

On this floor guests will also discover a fantastic family bathroom as well as a second bedroom, elegantly furnished with two large single beds. The vaulted ceiling with large angled windows flood the room with light making it a gorgeous space to enjoy some much needed downtime in.

The village of Torcross is well known for being perched on a stunning three mile stretch of shingle beach. The calm, clear waters and safe swimming conditions make it a popular choice for visitors, and the ideal location for a family or friends looking to spend a relaxing break in one of the most beautiful parts of South Devon.

*Please note, there is building work taking place to a nearby property behind The Barns At The Beach which may cause some noise disruption. For more information, please contact Luxury Coastal.

**Guests must park their car inside the integrated garage at the property. Vehicles left within the At The Beach car park may be subject to a parking fine.

Good Housekeeping Bond
We ask our guests for a £50 good housekeeping bond, which is pre-authorised against your card. This is in case there is any damage to the property during your stay. The money is simply reserved and then released afterwards if there is no claim. We will contact you nearer the time of your arrival to arrange this.

Great Devon location
The property was very clean and well equipped, unfortunately we ran into a few problems. Check in day revealed television problems , the next day a tv expert found a cut antenna wire. We had to turn on the heat for the towel rails, We never had evening or morning heating.

Superb property
Amazing property in such a fantastic location to explore the local towns and beaches. We had another amazing week in Torcross. The propertyis well equipped and has everything you need including a washing machine which is handy with lots of swimming stuff to clean. The garage allows space to keep wetsuits, paddleboard etc. Such an wonderful place and brilliant property.

Bedding, bathrooms and kitchen clean enough but lots of spiders and cobwebs throughout and outside the property, garage very mucky, couldn’t see through windows upstairs they were so dirty. All smelled very nice on entry but once that faded a musty smell downstairs.

Thought it was supposed to be super cleaned because of Covid 19 shouldn’t come on holiday and have to clean .couldn’t see though windows. Would come again if it was clean.

Was dusty and smelt musty
The actual property was was nice, the town consisted of a pub and a fish n chips shop. But the property needs a good clean. It was dusty and smelt musty, i'm sure there was painted over mould stains on the bedroom wall, and the rugs and sofas could do with a clean. As a family that suffers with allergies it was very difficult to relax in the property. Just needs a deep clean.
