Gorgeous 3 bed cottage in Mortehoe with fantastic roof terrace seaviews!

In the heart of Mortehoe village and surrounded by National Trust coastline, Old Bakery Cottage is in a superb location for a beach or walking holiday. This popular spacious cottage has all modern facilities, superb sea views from the roof terrace and living area and easy access to beaches and coastline. It is ideal for family holidays and accommodates 6 people comfortably, with three bedrooms situated on the ground floor. The cottage is a fantastic base for local beaches and country walks. Of all our cottages in Mortehoe this possibly has the best sea views.

Stunning National Trust coastland stretches in all directions and the famous beaches of Woolacombe bay are within walking distance or short hop by car. Pony-trekking, surfing and golf facilities are available locally. Just a 10 minute walk from the cottage is Grunta Beach, great for rock pooling and sheltered bathing and just through the village on the way to the lighthouse is the coastal footpath down to Rockham Beach with the remains of a ship wreck still to be found. Three great pubs serving locally produced food, a Fish & Chips, Deli, two tea rooms, Post Office, village store, church, gift shop, Mortehoe Museum and under 11’s play area are all in the village just minutes from the cottage.

This characterful, quirky cottage has the bedrooms on the ground floor and living area upstairs to take full advantage of the views to the rolling hills to the left or the sea in front. There are 2 double bedrooms (one with small en-suite w/c & shower) - 1 room with 3ft bunks - Utility/drying room with washing machine (no dryer) –fitted bathroom – Upstairs is the open plan room with new for 2020 galley kitchen one end with cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, slim-line dishwasher etc - through to large living/dining room with gas-flame effect fire, 2 white leather sofas, dining table and chairs, wall mounted Smart TV and Bluetooth speaker/docking station with USB charger. This cottage also has Wi-Fi.

An absolute winner with good sized roof terrace with superb sea views. Bed linen & one bath/one hand towel per person provided - please bring beach towels. There is a travel cot and high chair.

Parking is in the local Mortehoe village car park. You can drop off and unload at the cottage. There is a good value visitors parking permit that covers the village car park and 23 other local council car parks in the area. https://www.northdevon.gov.uk/parking/parking-permits/visitor-and-tourist-permits/4-and-7-day-permits/
The village car park is just a short stroll away. Four or seven day seasonal parking permits can be purchased in advance via credit/debit card and then posted directly to you at home - best now purchased online. The weekly tickets allow you to use a number of other car parks in the area which can be useful when out and about.

All in all a truly lovely place with a super atmosphere and quirky feel, we think you’ll love it!

Lovely well equipped property with sea view
Property was delightful, situated near the village pub and shop post office and chip shop there was also a lovely bistro. The beach was within walking distance but was downhill! The coastal path was also accessible.

Great central location in Mortehoe
Great location in center of Mortehoe tucked down a side street opposite the pub The Chichester Arms. Woolacombe about a 5 min drive down steep narrow road that can get busy. You can walk over the hill would take about 30 mins. Parking can be pre booked with North Devon council is a must as no parking at property. Property itself spotless and perfect for 6 of us 4 adults and 2 kids. Great location for pubs and takeaways. 👍

The view from the balcony makes this home a perfect location. The sea view and the fields around you are spectacular. The home is fully equipped with all you need to self cater. Comfy beds and lovely showers. Ticks all the boxes for me!

Perfect stay
Old Bakery was a perfect cottage in a perfect location for a great week in Woolacombe. From booking through to arrival we received all the information we needed to ensure a smooth rental in these difficult times. The cottage itself was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for a wonderful stay, the views are glorious and the space is comfortable with plenty of room for six people.

Holiday at Mortehoe
Excellent location but due to COVID everything seems to close on Mondays. Local takeaway was brilliant but only open Thurs Fri Sat as Miss Feas restaurant where we had a lovely meal. Upstairs of the property was stunning lovely views and very spacious. My only criticism was the chairs at the table were very uncomfortable and not good for backs. Lovely hot showers and good heating. Would recommend this lovely holiday home.

We loved the cottage and the village it was located in. We walked down to Woolacombe beach most days
The cottage is amazing. A beautiful new kitchen and smart new flooring in the kitchen/lounge/diner made it bright and airy. It was spotlessly clean on arrival and everything we needed was supplied. I particularly like the “upside down” layout with the bedrooms on the ground floor and the lounge on the first floor giving views of the sea and surrounding hills. It was so easy wheeling our suitcases straight into the bedrooms instead of struggling with them upstairs. Everything was very cleverly thought out. Would definitely make a return visit.

Great location
What a lovely property in a great location. Great pub, bistro and takeaway in the village. Superb location for touring around North Devon. Walked miles on coastal paths. Very hilly but great for walkers. Would return to this property.
