About this property
Situated within less than a minutes’ walk from the three beaches of Hope Cove, village pubs, restaurants and shop, Chichester Court is an exclusive development of six stunning apartments. There are a number of stunning walks on the South West Coast Path easily accessible from the apartment, to Salcombe, Thurlestone, and further beyond to Bantham and Burgh Island. What’s more, there are superb links to the nearby golf clubs at Thurlestone and Bigbury. Ideally situated for couples and young families looking to enjoy the beautiful coast path and nearby sandy beaches.
5 Chichester Court is a spacious and well presented second floor apartment, enjoying stunning coastal and village views from the living area and balcony. The fully fitted modern kitchen is well equipped with a four-ring electric hob and oven, dishwasher, washing machine/dryer, fridge with ice compartment and microwave. The combined dining and living area boasts French doors leading to a private (South facing) balcony, with patio furniture and sea views. Comfortably furnished, there are two double sofas, chairs, TV/DVD unit and a dining table seating six. An extremely spacious master bedroom enjoys a King-size bed, built in storage and en suite bathroom with shower cubicle. The second bedroom is a twin room, with 3’ beds, and the third bedroom has a small double bed and wardrobe. There is a further family bathroom with bath, w.c., wash hand basin and heated towel rail. Free Wireless broadband is provided.
Guests can enjoy shared use of the communal gardens, however this area is unsuitable for young children due to the steep gradient. There is one allocated visitor parking space, an unreserved visitors bay, and additional parking available in the village car park.
The picturesque fishing village of Hope Cove lies in a sheltered bay on South Devon’s coastline, offering superb views over Bigbury Bay and Burgh Island. A choice destination for families, two beaches offer soft sand for sandcastle building, plus rock pools great for entertaining children. The town remains a fishing village where crabs and lobsters are still landed, however it was once used by smugglers. Many ships have perished around the coast and the wrecks that lie beneath the waves make it a popular spot for divers. Above the beach there are a number of pubs and restaurants, including the popular café bar ‘The Cove’. The coastal footpath can be joined from here and leads towards the sandy beaches of Thurlestone and Bigbury-on-Sea in one direction, and the sailing town of Salcombe in the other.

Although there was a folder from Coast and Country Cottages, it was general information and not specific to the premises. There was no information on the heating system and the WiFi was very intermittent. Three out of the four internal doors squeaked on opening and closing due to lack of maintenance. This took me only 5 minutes to fix using some oil. The main bathroom had a two way tap and shower system which did not properly turn from bath to shower as one or the other was always leaking. The plug in the sink leaked so one was having to keep topping up. The toilet handle had to be pumped two or three times to flush. The handle on the cutlery drawer was loose and the bottom plinth cover on the cooker kept falling loose. One of the drawer edges had been reglued but the drawer kept sticking. Someone had previously written in the diary ' needs a good deep clean' . I totally agree. Having said all this we had a good holiday. Just not up to Sykes standards

There were plenty of useful bits including a high chair, drying rack and multiple beach toys which was great. Perfect for our family of 4.
