The house itself has been recently refurbished and has a lovely, bright, open-plan downstairs area, awash with light from its many picture windows and a well-equipped, stylish contemporary kitchen diner with archway through to the spacious lounge equipped with TV, DVD player and music centre. Upstairs, the first floor has a double bedroom, a twin/double (zip'n'link) and a twin, plus a family bathroom (with bath and shower), whilst the attic room on the floor above has a double with Vi Spring mattress and ensuite shower room. Outside there is a small gravelled garden with bench to the front, plus a lovely decked terrace to the rear, accessed via sliding doors from the kitchen. Either has enough space for a small padding pool or scooting about on a small ride-on. The terrace comes equipped with good quality outdoor table and chairs, plus a large BBQ. Salcombe is often regarded as 'England's St. Tropez' due to the glamorous yachts it attracts. With yachts come great bistros and boutiques and the shiny new Oyster Shack overlooking the water comes highly recommended. For child-friendly meals, Captain Flints (closed in winter) is great fun and doesn't feel like a compromise for the adults either. Great days out include tours with lunch at nearby Sharpham Vineyard and Riverford Organics – both have well-respected cafe-bistros on-site. For the more energetic watersports such as surfing, windsurfing and water-skiing are available locally, as are boats trips.
