About this property

3 Bed Ground floor apertment minutes from the Beach!

Located 2-3 MINS WALK TO THE BEACH. A contemporary ground floor apartment with direct access to a large garden, in an imposing property within walking distance of Croyde beach and the village centre. Ideally situated in the village of Croyde, famed for its surf and ideal for children. Saunton sands, south of Croyde, backed by the Burrows nature reserve and famous Saunton golf club is a short car ride away. Villages such as Lynton and Lynmouth and the walkers paradise Watersmeet, are only a short drive away. LORNA DOONE 2 is located in an extremely desirable position on Moor Lane, only a two minutes stroll from the beach and just a short walk into the quaint and picturesque ‘chocolate box’ village of Croyde. Croyde itself boasts village stores, a post office, thatched pubs, restaurants, tearooms and surf shops.

The apartment is light and spacious, ideal for one large family or two smaller families. As this is a ground floor apartment, LORNA DOONE 2 also appeals to those who would rather not have the inconvenience of stairs.

The stylish and trendy open plan kitchen, dining room and living room is light and spacious, with two sets of double glazed patio doors that lead out onto a private decked area with canopied sun terrace and steps leading down to the garden beyond. There is a wooden dining table adjacent to the kitchen, providing plenty of space for 6 people. The lounge area is fully carpeted and boasts contemporary furniture in coordinating colours. There are two fabric sofas and two easy chairs that enable guests to relax in comfort. The entertainment hardware includes a TV and stereo system (CD, radio and audio tape), as well as inclusive WiFi internet access.

Limed oak units with a light laminate work surface help to increase the feeling of space in this open plan room. The layout has been well thought out, and appliances include a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, built in electric oven and hob, microwave, 2 slice toaster and kettle. There is a plentiful supply of glassware, coordinating crockery and cooking utensils.

There are 3 bedrooms all accessed from the central hallway.
Bedroom 1 is the master double bedroom with en-suite. Decor is simple yet elegant.
Bedroom 2 is a bright and airy charming twin bedroom, with wooden beds and storage space.
Bedroom 3 contains adult-sized pine bunk beds, chest of drawers and a mirror.

The fully tiled family bathroom with slate grey tiles has a really modern feel. The shower is separate from the bath in its own cubicle. The white suite also includes a pedestal wash basin with polished chrome taps, low level WC and a good sized bath, perfect for relaxing in aromatic bubbles after a day at the beach. Bedroom 1 has an en suite shower room.

There is dedicated parking for two cars on a level driveway. LORNA DOONE 2 is set in its own grounds, surrounded on two sides by a large flat lawn, the size of two tennis courts, perfect for enjoying the late afternoon sun. The grounds are a great social space, available to all guests to dine al fresco or simply just relax and unwind in the sunshine. A BBQ is provided.

About the area

Croyde

Located in Braunton, this apartment is near theme parks and near the beach. While the natural beauty of North Devon Coast and Saunton Sands can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can check out Ilfracombe Harbour. Traveling with kids? Consider Marwood Hill Gardens and Funder Zone. Jet skiing and scuba diving offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with mountain biking and horse riding nearby.

Perfect Spring Break...
A lovely 3 bed flat, plenty of room for two adults and three children, only a few minutes walk from the beach and our car stayed firmly parked from the moment we arrived until the end of the trip. Very much enjoyed the time out and look forward to returning soon.

Week stay in April
The location is perfect, very close to the beach and to the village centre. The apartment is nicely laid out, a good kitchen with a good outdoor area. In April it was always warm and the water was always hot. We had a lovely time and would come again.
