The 'English Riviera' has long been a popular holiday destination and many of those regular visitors have been attracted back to the area as permanent residents. There are pleasant walks along the South West Coast path and inland, the rugged splendour of Dartmoor National Park offers climbing and riding with fishing in the rivers and reservoirs.

. Beach View is a most individual property with spacious and beautifully presented accommodation, which has during the current owner's tenure been extended and improved to create an outstanding home. Occupying a prominent corner site, attention is drawn towards the range of sea and coastal vistas available or across the valley towards the Lincombes, Wellswood or Watcombe Heights. Should you tire of the views the gardens offer sunny or shady sitting out areas and inside, there is a pleasant study/office for those seeking a peaceful haven or working from home.
