About the home

Surf is a detached spacious bungalow standing in its own grounds of half an acre with magnificent views over Braunton Burrows and Saunton Championship Golf Course to the sea and the Taw/Torridge estuary.
The lounge/sunroom, dining room and largest bedroom all lead out through french doors to the south facing sundeck, which runs across the entire width of the house. Apart from the third bedroom which faces the wood on the east side, there are extensive views from all main rooms over the 2500 acres of Braunton Burrows which forms the centre of the only English Unesco Biosphere Reserve.
At the bottom of the garden, the gate leads directly to Saunton Championship Golf Course, the South West Coast Path National Trail and the dunes paths to the 3 mile-long sandy beach, avoiding crowds and cars.
Saunton is a renowned safe surfing beach, with lifeguards at peak times. Surf board hire and tuition is available. Sandboarding, kite surfing and longboarding are also popular.

The West Country / Devon region

Devon is predominantly a farming county, known for its unspoilt beauty with gently rolling countryside, high moorland and magnificent coastines offering wonderful rural views. Devon is famous for its mild climate and friendly people.

The Saunton area

Saunton Sands is often listed as the place that has most sun, or the highest temperatures, having a unique microclimate created by the topography. The parish of Braunton has 500 species of wild flowers, more than any other spot in the UK. There are 33 species of butterflies. Though it has 3 mile long safe beach, it is a small place with no caravan or camping sites. Adjacent to the beach there is a good restaurant, and a snack bar, beach shop, surf hire and tuition and beach hut hire. St Anne's Chapel has services every Sunday.
Cliff walks,easy day trips to Lundy Island, Appledore,Clovelly or Exmoor ...there is much to do if you tire of the beach or the deck. The RHS garden at Rosemoor is popular with gardeners.
