Located in the picturesque village of Torcross in Devon, this charming detached cottage, known as Swan's Nest, is an ideal retreat for couples seeking a coastal getaway. Just a stone's throw from the beach and offering stunning views over Slapton Ley, the cottage has been tastefully refurbished to create a comfortable and stylish environment. Spread over two floors, it features an attractive master bedroom with an en-suite shower room on the ground floor, while the first floor boasts an open-plan living area that includes a kitchen and dining space, designed to maximize the breathtaking views.
The interior of Swan's Nest is thoughtfully designed with comfort in mind, ensuring a relaxing stay for its guests. The master bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed and ample storage, while the contemporary bathroom features a spacious double walk-in shower. The kitchen is well-equipped with modern appliances, including a dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer, making it convenient for longer stays. For entertainment, the lounge area is fitted with a large flat-screen TV, providing a cozy space to unwind after a day of exploration along the coast.
Torcross is uniquely positioned along the Devonshire coastline, nestled between a serene freshwater Ley and a three-mile stretch of shingle beach. The area offers an array of scenic walking trails, including a picturesque coastal path that leads to nearby villages like Beesands, Hallsands, and Start Point. The cottage is conveniently located between the towns of Dartmouth and Kingsbridge, where visitors can engage in various activities such as paddleboarding with Waterborn SUP or exploring the vibrant local arts scene, including antique shops and galleries. Dartmouth, in particular, is known for its exceptional dining options and historic attractions, including the Royal Naval College.
In Torcross itself, guests can enjoy a hearty meal at the Start Bay Inn, famous for its generous portions of traditional pub fare, including a massive battered cod and chips. For those looking to indulge in local produce, the Stokeley Farm Shop is just a short distance away, offering a selection of homemade gifts and farm-fresh items. They also serve a delightful full English breakfast and wood-fired pizzas, but it’s advisable to arrive early due to its popularity. Overall, Swan's Nest in Torcross presents a perfect blend of comfort, scenic beauty, and local charm for an unforgettable coastal escape.
