Salcombe Cottage tucked away off Island St., short, level walk to all amenities.

Tucked away in the heart of “Old” Salcombe’s boatyards and artisan boutiques, this end of terrace cottage has been decorated to a high standard, to suit both family beach holidays and "out of season" walkers. Located in a quiet cul de sac, it is nonetheless just 150 yards from Victoria Quay and two-minutes level walk from the harbour, shops, pubs and restaurants of Salcombe. It has three bedrooms, an upstairs "snug" lounge and a pleasant small roof terrace with views of Batson Creek and the Snape Hills beyond.

The property benefits from a location within easy walking distance of both Salcombe's amenities and the countryside towards Batson and the Snape Hills. At the same time it enjoys a secluded location away from noisy "through-traffic" at busy times.

THE ACCOMMODATION

Street entrance to Kitchen/Dining Area: Fully equipped fitted-kitchen with twin-oven, ceramic hob with extractor hood, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washer-dryer. Also includes microwave oven, slow cooker, toaster and a wide range of cooking utensils.

The neighbouring dining area includes a farmhouse table to comfortably seat six, with adjustable lighting and armchair. Digital radio.

Stairs to First Floor comprising

Bedroom 1 - good sized double room with king-size bed. Built-in wardrobes and sash window opening onto the street below

Bedroom 2 - good sized bright room with window to the rear of the property. Twin beds, chest of drawers.

Bedroom 3 - Twin beds, chest of drawers. Sash window to front of property.

Family Bathroom - including bath, separate enclosed shower, WC, wash basin and mirror, heated towel rail.

Upstairs to Second Floor comprising;

Lounge - a bright and airy informal lounge with large L-shaped sofa, coffee table, TV, DVD player with selection of DVDs, CD player and radio with mount for smartphone. Windows to front and rear including retractable French window leading to;

Rooftop Balcony - a small S.E facing balcony with hardwood deck and seating. Pleasant at any time of the day it is especially enjoyable in the morning, catching the best of the morning sun. The balcony looks across to Batson Creek with its passing boat traffic and has a fine view of the Snape Peninsula beyond.

Tickets can be bought by the day and the Tourist Information Office and the newsagent will sell a weekly ticket if required.

Mooring - There is boat access at the end of the street for about three hours either side of high tide (please check tide tables). This is "loading and unloading" point and not for long term mooring.

The nearest pub is the Fortescue Arms with its popular wood-fired pizza oven and "all year round" vibe while the the town has shopping and eating-out to suit all tastes. The best beaches are on the Eastern side of the estuary and are easily accessed using the Portlemouth Ferry.

This is an awesome property in the heart of Salcombe - would recommend! The kitchen was well equipped, beds comfy and the lounge upstairs has enough space for everyone to sit around the coffee table. David is very responsive to messages, providing lots of useful info about the town and was very helpful answering my questions Although it doesn't have a car parking space, it does at least have room for you to stop and unload without blocking the road!
