Enjoying a fabulous beachfront setting overlooking bobbing fishing boats and the famous red sandy beach, this perfectly formed beach hut combines seaside nostalgia with modern luxury home comforts, in a romantic self-catering bijou setting!

Making the ideal getaway for a romantic and whimsical break, this luxury 5* beach hut offers a nautical themed open pan layout with sofa, breakfast table and a wall mounted free view TV with DVD player. The beach hut even offers free view Wi-Fi access and there is also a private off street parking space in front.

A luxury well equipped galley kitchen provides all the desired appliances for a comfortable self-catering stay with a combination microwave oven, an induction hob and an integrated fridge which is complemented by the swish granite worktop.

Guests can enjoy cooking delicious home cooked meals at their leisure with the perfect private ‘alfresco’ dinner venue provided for guests with their very own seafront terrace which is particularly private as it is not overlooked by the other huts.

Here on the decked terrace guests can wine and dine in style, with the magical evening sunsets playing out against the emotive sound of the seagulls carrying on a fresh sea breeze.

The beach hut is the ideal romantic escape year round, in all seasons, with luxurious under floor heating & an air handling system to keep you cosy on the travertine stone flooring and an intimate mezzanine bedroom reached by a sliding ladder and perfectly equipped with a made up king size futon bed (with hypo-allergenic bedding) to keep the sea winds safely at bay in the colder months.

The beach hut further features a natural stone tiled bathroom with power shower, wash basin and WC. 

From this utterly charming beachfront residence of self-catering bijou holiday homes, the picturesque village of Shaldon provides a welcome array of amenities and restaurants. Gastro pubs and fine culinary treats can also be enjoyed at the many local award-winning restaurants, which are all easily accessible either just a short beach stroll of car journey away.

The village is also extremely accessible by car from the perfectly located mainline Train Station at Newton Abbot as well as from the vibrant nearby seaside resort of Torquay, Exeter Airport and the M5, which are all within a 20-30 minute drive.

Guests can enjoy setting their own pace during their romantic getaway and can simply enjoy the beautiful surroundings in which this pretty beach hut is situated. Activities on the door step and local area appeal to all, from breath-taking coastal walks and picnics to mountain biking in the nearby nature reserves, swimming, a wide selection of water sports, fishing, golf, tennis, horse riding, exploring local historical houses and gardens and even sampling the buzzing nightlife of Torquay or Exeter; the choice is yours!
