About this property

This contemporary, semi-detached holiday home of Sail Loft rests in a quiet, gated estate on the fringes of Dawlish, Devon. A superb base for a family getaway to the coast, Sail Loft enjoys access to a shaded walk that takes guests down to the estate's secluded beach, you can stop along the way at the shared dining area to take in the sea views. The property also offers access to a handy private parking space with additional on-street parking; Dawlish's railway station also rests moments away, for added convenience. Make your way inside to be dazzled by the open-plan living space's gorgeous interiors with bi-fold doors bringing the outside in; sink back into the sitting area's seating and switching on the TV for a spot of evening entertainment with your loved ones. When you're feeling peckish, make your way over to the kitchen with its integrated appliances adding to its already sleek feel; the chef of the family will have a ball whipping up tasty treats here, courtesy of the wealth of appliances available. The utility is just off the kitchen, which not only hosts laundry facilities, but an additional fridge, where you can grab your favourite tipple to enjoy with your meals. These delicious meals can be enjoyed at the dining area with breakfast bar or out on the enclosed front patio amidst the coastal breeze. Climb up the glass-balustraded staircase to come across three fabulous bedrooms, the first being the master with a super-king-size bed, enviable sea views and access to a superb, marble-detailed en-suite shower room; the latter pair of bedrooms comprise a tasteful king-size and a twin room, which can be pushed together to form a super-king-size, giving you flexibility when it comes to your sleeping arrangements. Completing the property's accommodation is an impressive bathroom, where soothing soaks can be enjoyed in the bath with rainfall shower. After unwinding on the beach, why not pop into The Castle Inn for a bite to eat or visit the nearby Oaklands Park for a sunny picnic?

    I could go on about how beautiful the house is and how well equipped and furnished but it is easier say It is our second stay in less than 3 months and it won’t be our last! Sharon and Andy are very gracious hosts and do everything in their power to ensure you have a great holiday.

    We had enjoyed a fabulous stay at Sail Loft in July 2023 and we had agreed that if circumstances allowed , we would like to return in 2024 which we did. We all agreed that our stay in 2023 was the best property we have ever stayed in and we have stopped on plenty of great properties over the years. The property is very luxurious in a great location , the fixtures and fittings of the highest quality , situated just a few minutes from Town and a good base to travel to other holiday places across South Devon. A good pub called Smugglers Inn a few minutes walk away with views of the sea serving excellent meals is well worth a visit. Already looking to return again in 2025 , would certainly recommend this property to anybody looking to holiday in South Devon
