About this property
The ultimate coastal bolthole in the charming village of Shaldon
Nestled on the beach in the vibrant village of Shaldon, this unique and luxurious beach hut makes a magical couples’ escape. This idyllic abode is perfect for couples and solo adventurers looking to replace the hustle and bustle of daily life with the gentle hush of waves lulling you to a state of pure relaxation. Situated near to shops, cafes and restaurants, this romantic retreat has its own private terrace and a ladder that takes you straight on to the beach.
This bijou beach hut has been thoughtfully designed to maximise its compact space, and decked out in a quirky style that celebrates the British seaside, including nautical stripes and porthole mirrors. Throw open the bi-fold doors in summer and cosy up on the sofa, as a fresh sea breeze stirs the air. Cook up a storm in the galley-style kitchen and enjoy romantic meals for two on the terrace. Or dine inside in winter, toes toasty thanks to the underfloor heating, as you listen to the waves crash against the shore. As night falls, wash away the sand and salt in the chic shower room, before climbing up to the cute mezzanine bedroom and snuggling under the covers of your king-size bed. If you need a little extra space, the sofa bed folds out to accommodate one adult or two children under 14(additional charges apply for the sofa bed - please select at time of booking)
Enjoy lazy mornings on the beach, swimming, sailing, rowing, paddleboarding and exploring rock pools. Hop on the passenger ferry to Teignmouth to enjoy a traditional British day at the seaside, complete with crazy golf and amusements on the Victorian pier. This is a great destination for walkers with the South West Coast Path passing through town, offering countless opportunities for short and long-distance walks.

Whilst the beach hut is small it is super cosy and just right for a few days of rest and relaxation. I will definitely be back - the zoo, walks, local beaches and pubs are spot on, a real hidden gem. Thanks so much x
