Five bedroom holiday home (sleeps 10) near Salcombe

Available Friday-Friday through the year only.

About the property

Highfield is a holiday home in one of the most spectacular locations in Salcombe. Nestled into the valley above North Sands and giving the air of total seclusion, it is also within walking distance of the beach, the famous Winking Prawn restaurant and the town itself.

Surrounded by landscaped gardens, south facing and with views of the sea and over the beautiful North Sands valley, this spacious five-bedroom house sleeps up to ten people comfortably. It has three double rooms with king size beds, one of which can be split into two singles if requested, a twin room and a bunk room.

Downstairs, a large hallway leads to a cosy sitting room/TV room with double doors taking you out onto the lawn. There’s also a study, a utility room and a downstairs WC. Meanwhile, the heart and soul of the house is in the large kitchen/dining room, which has tri-folding doors opening out onto a patio that runs the length of the property and really makes the most of those awe-inspiring views.

Deliciously private and with lots of space, Highfield is perfect for whiling away summer days in the sunshine, but it would also make an idyllic bolthole to watch the natural world go by in the winter months. It has space for up to three cars on the driveway. Highfield is very much a destination in its own right.

Recommended for: Highfield is perfect for families.

Favourite feature: The view of the sea from the kitchen through tri-folding doors onto the patio.

About a holiday in Salcombe

North Sands sits on the outskirts of Salcombe, a historic fishing and sailing town that has become famous as a holiday destination because of its natural beauty and its local charm. Blessed with more beaches than you can visit in a week, a jaw-dropping estuary and magnificent walks along the South West Coast Path, it’s also filled with local traditions. For example, there’s the Town Regatta in August, excellent sailing opportunities, its own gin and ice cream factories, unparalleled clotted cream fudge, a magnificent bakery, and restaurants such as Captain Flint’s and The Winking Prawn (a few minutes’ walk from the house) that have practically become a rite of passage for visitors.


Please note that for 2022 the property offers a 7KW charging point for electric vehicles.
