Description
Seagulls is a traditional three-storey Salcombe property set in the very heart of the town and with lovely harbour views. The accommodation has been recently refurbished to a good standard throughout and offers families and adult groups alike a very well equipped and comfortably furnished base within easy reach of the town.
Delightful views over the estuary with towards Whitestrand and the beaches beyond.
A pathway (from Fore Street) leads into an open courtyard at the front of the cottage, where a glazed entrance door then opens into the kitchen/dining area at ground floor level. The open plan kitchen has cream units and marble worktops and incorporates a five ring gas range with double oven and grill, dishwasher and fridge, whilst the dining area has a wooden table seating eight. An archway leads into a cosy lounge with two double leather sofas, flatscreen TV and door out to a small terrace with table and chairs - steps lead down to foreshore (there is also a door from the kitchen to the terrace and foreshore). At the end of a short passage is a utility area with fridge/freezer, tumble dryer, microwave and sink (a washing machine is housed in the ground floor shower room). A set of open stairs lead up to the first floor sitting room (and twin bedroom). The sitting room is very comfortably furnished with two double sofas, occasional furniture, contemporary wall-mounted electric fire, and flatscreen TV. Two further chairs sit in front of the large bay window offering superb views over the harbour.
Four bedrooms in total. On the first floor is a master bedroom with two single beds (pushed together), bedside units, fitted wardrobe, drawers and door out to sun terrace with lovely views. A fully tiled en suite bathroom has bath, rain head shower (over), hand-held shower attachment, wash-hand basin, w.c and heated towel rail. On the top (2nd) floor accessed by a curved ships stairway (Note the stairs are quite narrow and steep) are three dormer bedrooms all with views of the estuary. One room has a king bed with bedside unit and fitted wardrobe/shelves, whilst the others are both twins - one has two small single beds (2'6") (ideal for children), the other has full-size singles, each room has a bedside unit and drawers. In addition to the en suite (above) there is a newly refurbished, fully tiled bathroom on the on the top floor with bath, shower (over), wash-hand basin and w.c, and a shower room on the ground floor with shower cubicle, wash-hand basin and w.c. To the front of the property is a courtyard with dining table, chairs and barbecue. On the 1st floor is a lovely sun terrace accessed directly from the sitting room.
Seagulls is in central Fore Street (although accessed via a side path adjacent to the bakery) within just a few yards walk of boutiques, cafes and restaurants in this area of the town. Salcombe's famous waterfront is very close by whilst local sandy beaches can be reached quickly via the passenger ferries to East Portlemouth and South Sands.

What guests are saying
A lovely holiday house, with excellent views, privacy, access to the water and convenient for shops and restaurants.
Kitchen well equipped, various dining areas (inside and out) .
We have been to this property before and it’s great to see the owners investing in the house The new flooring is excellent and the terrace areas have been tidied up and offer the sun all day in different areas Generally a great property for family holidays in the heart of salcombe
Ultimately a lovely holiday house with great view and location.
Some parts of the house are tired with odd furniture configurations. The main bedroom (we think) with 2 twin beds for example. Unfortunately, the house wasn't particularly clean on arrival and infested with bugs. Other little details like the BBQ gas running out on the first go and disappointing and cause a frustration on holiday. If these issues can be sorted, we would recommend. The agent was responsive and kindly sorted us a parking permit but didn’t really address any other concerns fully. Especially as we felt we paid a premium, sadly, wasn’t a premium stay.
