If your party is larger then 8 and you wish to use the annexe, please give us a call to discuss prices. It has plenty of room for young, old and everyone in between!

From the large glass fronted kitchen/ lounge/ diner, you can sit and enjoy the glorious views of the beach and all the way over to Burgh Island, made famous by Agatha Christie. Whatever the weather, the views are wonderful. With parking for 4 cars and a large front facing patio perfectly placed to absorb the wonderful views, this really is the most idyllic spot to rest, recuperate, swim, paddle or surf.
A wonderful seaside property which is ideal for the beach or for those that want to explore all that the South hams has to offer including direct access on to the South Devon coastal path which is literally 70 metres away.

Challaborough Beach is a sheltered horseshoe cove with a beautiful, sandy beach and rugged cliffs as a backdrop, in the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The beach is great for adults and children. At low tide, rock pools are exposed allowing both children and adults alike, the chance to get close to the marine life that lives around the shore. The beach is ideal for surfing with fantastic surfing conditions, created by a combination of the beach’s shape and sand banks, making it popular with surfers and body-boarders. With views of nearby Burgh Island, and hilly stretches of the South West Coast Path climbing out of the bay on either side, this natural unassuming cove is a little gem.

Park up on the driveway and you can see the beach and smell the sea. It’s that close!
Cheldon occupies a substantial raised plot perfectly situated to enjoy the superb views over the beautiful bay. With a wrap around paved area, part of which encompasses an outdoor blackboard wall to keep budding artists happy; a large front patio with gas bar b que and parking for 4 cars, Cheldon really is perfectly designed for seaside living with almost all of the accommodation enjoying the stunning vista.
Cross the large patio to the front of the house and enter into a small hallway. Turn left into the snug/second lounge furnished with a large sofa bed to accommodate extra bodies. This room houses the main television with the Disney channel and Sky Sports. Glass doors take you into the conservatory where you can relax and soak up the most glorious views whatever the weather.

Along the corridor are 3 bedrooms and the family bathroom furnished with bath with shower over, sink and toilet. Bedroom 3 is furnished with twin beds and Bedroom 2 has a double bed; both rooms enjoy views to the side of the property and the beach. The master bedroom is a large bright room with a vaulted ceiling and an en-suite shower room. This room can easily be used as a family room as there is plenty of space to house a single z bed as well as a cot.
The open plan kitchen, dining and living area is light and spacious with ample space for family gatherings and enjoys the most glorious sea views. Sliding patio doors lead out on to a south westerly facing patio which is furnished with outside table and chairs and a 6-burner BBQ with side burner. The kitchen area is fitted with a wide range of units with beech work tops. The beautiful sea view can be enjoyed if you are tasked with washing up! From the rear of the kitchen you can access the well equipped utility room, WC and boot room area, perfect for returning from the beach with sandy feet. The back door leads out on to a small courtyard with a blackboard wall and a path that wraps around the house.

To the front of the house is a separate annexe with 2 bedrooms that sleeps up to four. The annexe is furnished with a double bed and a set of small bunk beds which are only suitable for children, along with a shower room. Don't forget to give us a call, if you require the use of the annexe as there is an extra charge for the use. Perfect for extra family members.

Outside you can access a pathway that leads directly on to the South West Coast path and leads down on to the beach.
An EV charger available - please call if you would like to charge your vehicles.

Cheldon occupies a large plot and enjoys glorious sea views over the whole of Challaborough Bay and along the beautiful coastline which are truly captivating. The house borders farmland where sheep often graze. It really is a wonderful spot for large groups or generations of family to relax, kick back and enjoy quality time together.

Perfect home in a wonderful location. Everything we needed for our stay was provided, and the house was spotless. Never turned the tele on once during daylight hours, the view from the conservatory - especially on the stormy day - was captivating enough. Can't recommend this property too highly, it is quite simply stunning.

An outstanding property with everything you could possibly want or need in the accommodation. Short walk downhill to a gorgeous little beach, which you could watch all the changing weather conditions at from the conservatory. Lovely furnishings and everything was really clean. Very narrow lanes to get in and out of Challaborough itself - typical South Devon single track roads! Highly recommend.
