Embark on a luxurious coastal getaway at The WHITE HOUSE, an exquisite 4-bedroom haven nestled in the serene embrace of Croyde village. Offering accommodation for up to 8 guests, this meticulously curated residence is designed to provide the quintessential "home from home" experience.
The idyllic retreat enjoys a sublime setting, tucked away in a quiet and tranquil location, yet conveniently close to the vibrant heart of Croyde village with its diverse amenities. Notably, The WHITE HOUSE is just moments away from the pristine Croyde Beach and the enchanting sand dunes that adorn the coastline, providing an ideal escape for those seeking both tranquility and proximity to natural beauty.
Upon entering The WHITE HOUSE, you are greeted by the grandeur of the expansive L-shaped lounge. The space is adorned with fresh white walls and hard-wearing neutral carpets, creating an atmosphere of sophistication and comfort. Divided into two distinct seating areas, the lounge features a wood burner, sumptuously comfortable sofas, a contemporary lounge chair, and a footstool. Entertainment enthusiasts will appreciate the Super Fast broadband, a full Sky package, a wall-mounted flat screen HD TV, and a DVD/CD/MP3 Player—all enjoyed against the backdrop of a crackling wood burner.
Adjacent to the lounge is the double-aspect dining room, characterized by solid oak flooring, a central ceiling light, and French doors that open onto the rear patio. The highlight of this space is the large oblong table, surrounded by seating for eight, complemented by a wooden chest housing table mats, 'where to go' leaflets, and exquisite John Lewis Crockery.
The modern and airy kitchen beckons with a breakfast bar-counter and two bar stools. A chef's delight, the kitchen is equipped with a 4-ring electric hob, built-in double oven and grill, extractor fan, 4-slice toaster, microwave, kettle, breadboards, stainless steel cooking utensils, dishwasher, large fridge/freezer, and a cafetiere. Enjoy picturesque garden views while cooking, and find practicality and convenience in the adjacent utility room, equipped with a stainless steel sink and drainer, fridge/freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer, and additional amenities.
Ascending to the upper floor unveils four sumptuous bedrooms, each meticulously designed for ultimate comfort. The master bedroom, a sanctuary of luxury, features a king-size bed, bedside cabinets, a 6-drawer chest of drawers, and a large wardrobe with shelves. The single aspect room offers a large window overlooking the stunningly pretty back garden.
The second bedroom, housing bunk beds, exudes charm with pine wooden bunk beds, a 3-drawer chest of drawers, bedside cabinet, and bedside light—all set against a single aspect window offering views of the side of the property and the verdant hills beyond.
Bedrooms three and four, both twin bedrooms, offer versatile sleeping arrangements with 3' single beds that can be zip-linked to create a king-size double bed. The former boasts a massive full-length fitted wardrobe, a mirror-fronted single wardrobe with cupboards over, and a 6-drawer chest of drawers with a mirror, all against a backdrop of a large picture window overlooking the rooftops of Croyde to the sea. The latter, a generously sized room, features bedside tables and lamps, a 6-drawer chest of drawers, and a built-in cupboard currently housing a z-bed, spare duvets, and pillows.
The WHITE HOUSE ensures the pampering of its residents with a range of bathrooms, including an en-suite shower room off the master bedroom, a family bathroom, and separate upstairs and downstairs WCs.
Step outdoors, and The WHITE HOUSE's garden unfolds like a living canvas. Creatively landscaped on three levels, this 'garden lovers’ delight' offers an enchanting secret area at the top, capturing the hearts of children. The fully enclosed and private garden provides abundant space for play, relaxation, and outdoor entertaining. A paved patio area, an ideal spot for dining al fresco, complements the dining room, complete with a table, chairs, and parasol. Ascending the garden reveals another seating area with a Kadai fire bowl/BBQ, adding a touch of rustic charm to outdoor gatherings. Further up and to the rear of the garden, a delightful Wendy House beckons, providing a whimsical retreat for the younger members of the family.
Parking is convenient with ample space for two cars in front of the house. The WHITE HOUSE extends its hospitality further with optional extras that allow you to tailor your experience. Bath towels, provided at GBP5 per person (max eight), ensure a touch of luxury, while dog accommodations are available at GBP40 per dog per week/short break. Families with little ones can request a high chair at no charge, and a travel cot is also available at no charge, although linen is not supplied.
