This South Devon detached, classic country house is tucked away down a quiet lane on the hill at the head of Batson Creek, 10-15 minutes walk to Salcombe, and the beautiful estuary. Enjoying wonderful views this imaginatively renovated, sumptuously furnished and spacious home has a tasteful light and airy open plan living area with oak flooring opening out to a large sunny patio and landscaped gardens that surround the property. Further luxuries include a hot tub (available in high season only) and a wonderfully relaxing sauna. All this combines to provide a perfect relaxing environment to make you feel at home. Two reception rooms enable guests or noisy children to work, read or watch TV in peace and the beautifully appointed bedrooms ensure restful nights after the activities of the day. Salcombe and the surrounding district need little introduction and provide an ideal base for a holiday, with beautiful golden sandy beaches, a lively seaside town with excellent inns, restaurants and shops, coastal walks with amazing views and plenty of facilities catering for those who want to mess about on the water. We could go on, but take it from us that Perrotts is a special holiday destination that once experienced is sure to entice you back.
