Just 150 yards from the lovely sandy beach in Challaborough is this contemporary detached house in a little gated collection of 12. Designed 'upside down' to create a light and spacious living area with a nautical theme, this is high quality and beautiful seaside accommodation with eco-friendly credentials.
From the hall, stairs sweep up directly into the stunning open plan living space where you can chill out in the comfy seating area, cook in the well equipped and fresh kitchen area and gather together around the central table for fun family meals.
You will find the four bedrooms on the ground floor, all peaceful and comfortable with stylish fabrics and clever bespoke blinds, together with the smart family bathroom tiled in cool limestone.
From the dining area you can fold back big doors on a sunny day to reveal the private terrace for enjoying alfresco meals and head up steps to an enclosed roof garden where you can stretch out on loungers and listen to the sea. To enjoy the beach, you only need to wander out in wetsuits and flip-flops and you will find yourself on the big sandy Blue Flag beach where you can paddle, build sandcastles and surf or bodyboard.
For surfing tuition or hire, the popular surf school at Bigbury-on-Sea is just over the little headland.
If you don't feel like cooking, you can buy fish and chips in the summer from the café or a trip to nearby Ringmore is worthwhile for an excellent meal or a pint of real ale in its friendly, characterful pub. Walkers will be in seventh heaven on the South West Coast Path or strolling across the sand to Burgh Island with its views from the ruined huers hut on the peak. 5 Beachdown is an excellent house in prime position for a fun family holiday by the sea.

The house was well-equipped and close to the beach and coastal walks. The additional fridge was a great addition and it was nice that the sofa was big enough to accommodate the five of us (or more).

We had a great stay at beachdown . The house has everything you need . Plenty of space . The kitchen facilities were great .2 fridges and a freezer .
It's lovely to be able to walk to the beach and bigbury on sea and burgh island .
The roads in and out are challenging as they are narrow but it is worth it .
