Homelands - 4 Bed | Sea Views | Coastal

Homelands has been recently upgraded and redecorated following a change in ownership and now provides a stunning, luxurious holiday home which is located in an excellent position on Moor Lane in Croyde.

Views are enjoyed across the village, dunes and out to sea from several rooms and it is located just a short (5 minute) walk to the beach and a 5-10 minute walk to the village amenities. The property is very well equipped with everything you will require for a fun-filled family holiday. The owners have thoughtfully provided plenty of board games, books, toys and baby equipment including a stroller and baby walker. The living areas are arranged to provide space for everyone to enjoy, including a play area for children and a separate 'tv room' off the main sitting room for adults to relax.

The outside spaces provides a large south facing terrace to the front with plenty of outside furniture - a great entertaining space. There is also a separate play area for the children to rear and plenty of parking. We are certain Homelands will become your new favourite holiday home in North Devon!

Cooking/Dining
The kitchen/dining room is the hub of this property and is where we are sure you will find everything you need to cater for your family and/or friends. Evenings at the dining table, whether playing a board game, completing a puzzle or enjoying a meal will keep you entertained whatever the weather. The beautiful log burner which serves both the dining area and the main sitting room creates a lovely atmosphere during the winter months, making the house ideal no matter what time of year. The kitchen is very well equipped with granite worktops, Nespresso coffee machine, panini maker, comprehensive range of cooking equipment/utensils and a large American style fridge freezer. There is also a dishwasher and a separate utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer. The kitchen opens both into the main living room and also the playroom making it so much easier to engage with the children and your friends/family whilst conjuring up a feast.

Homelands is certainly not lacking in living space. The main living room provides a wonderful space to relax with two comfortable sofas providing seating for 6-7 people together with two funky rocking recliners in front of the full height windows, which overlook the front terrace and garden towards the dunes.
