Escape to coastal bliss at this stylish family retreat of Lower Hillcott
Escape to coastal bliss at this stylish family retreat in Crackington Haven, near Bude, just five minutes from the beach. With five bedrooms and open-plan living, it's designed with families and friends in mind, it has a sun-drenched terrace, games room, fire pit, and outdoor shower - perfect for washing off sandy toes and salty paws after a day at the beach!
The layout is perfectly suited to larger families or two families sharing. On the ground floor are two principal bedroom suites; one with an en-suite shower room, and another with a luxurious en-suite bathroom featuring a bathtub and separate shower. Two further bedrooms feature bunk beds and a single bed in each, ideal for younger guests. A family bathroom with a bath, shower, wash basin and WC complete the ground floor. The practical utility room includes a WC and opens to an outdoor hot shower, ideal after beach days.
A private fifth bedroom with twin beds sits on a cosy mezzanine level, accessible via its own staircase and door. Though the ceiling height is lower, it's a charming, secluded hideaway, perfect for older children. Please take care under the low ceilings.
Upstairs is the heart of the home, a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area flooded with light from floor-to-ceiling windows. With vaulted ceilings, exposed wooden beams and sweeping views, this space is perfect for entertaining or relaxing by the wood-burning stove. Please note, this property does not have a television, encouraging you to fully embrace the serenity and natural beauty of your surroundings.
Double doors lead to a spacious terrace with outdoor dining furniture, a barbecue, bean bags, and breathtaking countryside views. Further up the garden, you'll find a peaceful, sunken fire pit, perfect for starry nights and the soothing sound of waves in the distance. For entertainment, there's a well-equipped games room with air hockey, children's table tennis, darts, wetsuits, body boards, and beach gear, plus an outdoor table tennis table for summer fun.

There is restricted head height on the mezzanine level, please can care under low ceilings.
