The Old Police House is a charismatic terraced cottage located in Braunton near Croyde, Devon in the South West of England. It sleeps 9 people across 4 bedrooms and features like allowing pets and being close to a nearby pub. The cottage is just three miles from the beautiful North Devon Coast, surrounded by village amenities such as shops, pubs, restaurants, and cafes, making it an ideal holiday destination for families.
The cottage has been beautifully converted, retaining some original features like the former ground floor cell which now serves as a bedroom with bespoke bunk beds. The kitchen with a large dining area leads to a utility room and surfboard storage area, while the sitting room offers plush sofas and a large TV for a cosy family space. The first floor features three spacious bedrooms, including the Kingpin Room with a king-size bed, the Garden Room with a double bed and patio doors, and The Family Room which can be configured with either a super king-size double and a single or three single beds.
The enclosed rear garden of The Old Police House is accessed through the utility room or inner hallway and features extensive decking with views across the village. The decking provides a sunny spot for relaxing around the barbecue and can be reached from one of the first-floor bedrooms. A short stroll into the village offers access to bistro, pubs, cafes, and shops, while a three-mile drive leads to the long sandy beach at Saunton, backed by Braunton Burrows, an AONB. This welcoming cottage with its wealth of charm is perfect for a beachside family holiday.
