Belvedere provides the perfect coastal and rural retreat. Situated in a private lane, in the picturesque village of Mortehoe, in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Enjoy spectacular, uninterrupted sea views. Walk through the gate at the bottom of the garden directly onto National Trust land and the coastal path leading to the fabulous local beaches.
Grunta Beach is our favourite local beach for rock-pooling and building beach BBQs.
Woolacombe Beach offers an expansive 3 miles of golden sand with a back drop of un-spoilt sand dunes. A favourite family holiday destination and a water-sports paradise.
