Close To The Beach,Wi-Fi, Parking
From beautiful beaches to sandy coves, the South Hams coastline attracts visitors from all corners of the globe and it’s easy to see why. Pretty villages pepper the landscape which undulates between countryside and cliffs to form one of South Devon’s protected Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Set just 150 yards from Challaborough Bay Beach’s sandy horseshoe shaped cove, this modern beach house is one of a gated collection of 12 exclusive eco-friendly dwellings and offers guests a fantastic place to call home while visiting the area. With its four bedrooms and reverse layout, Coast utilises every inch of sprawling space to create rooms to spend time together in and places to be apart, with the upper level designed for entertaining and the ground floor set apart for sleeping.
A sweeping staircase connects the two floors, ascending from the spacious entrance hall up to the first level where a huge open plan living/dining/cooking area resides. Luxurious, bright and light-filled, this room features artistic design elements and oodles of comfortable seating to create a contemporary space that not only looks fantastic but functions perfectly as a social hub of the home. An amply equipped kitchen incorporates the lovely dining area which flows through enormous bifold doors out to the decked terrace which, furnished with an outdoor table and chairs means lunches and dinners can be enjoyed alfresco in the fresh sea air. Completing the outside space, a set of stairs leads up to suntrap roof terrace, and with its peaceful setting it’s the perfect place for sunbathing or catching up on that holiday read.
With Challaborough’s sandy family-friendly beach right on the doorstep, days are spent either paddling the surf, or exploring the plethora of coastal walks in the area, and when its time to head home, the property’s gorgeous bedrooms (including a fabulous master en-suite) offer guests four sumptuous sanctuaries to retreat to for nights of deeply comfortable seep.
*Coast At Beachdown caters beautifully to families with young children in tow. A range of baby and toddler-friendly items are provided that include a Cot, Steps, Potties, Steriliser, High chair, Stair gates, Bed guards, Baby monitor, Booster seats, Child toilet seats and Children’s crockery and cutlery

Fabulous property
Stayed here for 6 nights with family. Property was well equipped. Beds so comfortable.
Wonderful location with beach very close by.
Would stay here again.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house is well equipped and comfortable with plenty of space.
A couple of small problems were managed well by Elsie.
A great location with easy walking distance to two great beaches.
Very spacious, well resourced property. Comfortable for a large family gathering and providing a home from home. Disappointing to find that bbqs were not allowed. Situated down a narrow access road, which proved difficult at times but within easy driving distance to Kingsbridge, Salcombe and Dartmouth. It's position on the South West Coast path meant access to some lovely walks.
We were disappointed to find a large caravan park opposite which wasn't mentioned in the property details and the bin store was very difficult to negotiate to find the correct bin for our rubbish.

Great Family Getaway in a Spacious Seaside Home
We had a fantastic family weekend at this house. There was plenty of space both inside and out, and the kitchen was huge and really well-equipped, making it easy to cook and enjoy meals in - especially since navigating the Devon lanes in the dark isn’t always appealing when heading out for dinner. The bedrooms were spacious, and the driveway easily fit our three 4x4s. Check-in was seamless, and the local housekeeper was incredibly responsive, friendly, and helpful when we had a question. The upper and lower roof terraces were lovely for having morning coffee even in the chilly October weather, and the short stroll to the beach at Challabrough was a real bonus as we had a little one with us. The outdoor shower in the Beachdown complex was perfect for rinsing off sandy feet after a dip in the sea. It was also just a quick drive round to Bigbury Beach, and we found it easy to get to Salcombe and Kingsbridge for the day. Overall, a brilliant stay!
