Monkswell Park Cottage - 3 Bedroom (Sleeps 6) Cottage in Torquay

Description

Monkswell Park in Wellswood, South Devon, dates back to the 1920s, and is described in Pevsner's Buildings of England as 'The most distinguished property tucked into the slopes overlooking Hope Cove with wings angled to create a protected terrace with veranda facing the sea.' There are two holiday cottages to let - please see our other listing for our smaller property which sleeps 4 (The Garden Rooms).

With fabulous uninterrupted sea views over Lyme Bay, Monkswell Park benefits from an extremely rural and quiet, picturesque cliff top location on the South West Coastal Path, but is only one and a half miles from Torquay town centre, and approximately twenty miles from the historic city of Exeter. Also within a short drive are pretty Dartmouth, and the quirky market town of Totnes.

There are excellent local shops and restaurants within easy access, and a walkable sandy beach within half a mile of the property. There is also access to a ‘near private’ pebble beach from the one and a half acre lawned garden. The nearest railway station is Torquay although Newton Abbot is only seven miles away. The nearest airport is Exeter.

Monkswell Cottage benefits on the first floor from one king sized bedroom (en-suite), one twin room and a bunk bedded room. There is a main family bathroom with large walk-in shower.

The ground floor features a lounge with fabulous garden and sea views (with door to the private courtyard), and a cottage-style kitchen with full oven, gas hob, full sized dishwasher, microwave, kettle and toaster, and washing machine. The separate dining-room with parquet floor comfortably seats six, and has doors to the private courtyard which features table and chairs for eight guests. Also on this floor is a downstairs cloakroom.

A gate to the garden features a large private patio with additional furniture and uninterrupted sea views.
