Willingcott Valley is a well-kept holiday cottage complex situated just 2 miles from the very popular seaside surfing village of Woolacombe which is famous for its 2 1/2 miles of golden sand beaches and its fabulous surrounding countryside offering miles of meandering footpaths to explore enjoying some spectacular coastal scenery. The site is a great base from which to explore all that North Devon offers, not just the beaches, but the neighbouring villages and towns, the Exmoor National Park and the many visitor attractions that the region has to enjoy. On site, there is also an outdoor heated swimming pool for the cottage occupants to benefit from, a childrens play area and a fine food van which regularly visits the site. The Tarka Trail is directly accessible from the site and is a walking/cycle track which meanders through miles of the glorious North Devon countryside and is an attractive feature for those on holiday. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and provides low maintenance easy living. The heart of the home is the open plan lounge and dining room which has a bay window which overlooks the adjacent ponds. The stairs lead up to the first floor and there is useful storage under. Within the room there is ample room for sofas and a dining table and the kitchen area opens at the rear and comprises a range of fitted base and wall units and includes an integrated oven and hob with an extractor canopy over. On the first floor there are two bedrooms, one set up as a double room and the other with twin beds. The larger double room has an en suite shower cubicle as well. There is a family bathroom with a corner bath with a shower over. The property is available to purchase furnished and equipped, if required and by separate negotiation.
