Sunnybrook is a luxurious carbon neutral home. A family-sized country retreat in its own grounds within a small hamlet, situated at the end of a rural lane and only 5 mins from a beach. The beautifully designed eco house provides comfort and convenience, including a wood-fired Swedish hot tub, EV charger and under floor heating.
Luxury that doesn't cost the earth!
Children and well behaved pets are welcome. Strictly no group parties such as hen and stag do’s.
You’ll enjoy year round warmth from under-floor heating heated with green electricity and an Air source heat pump, a well-appointed kitchen and home entertainment system. As you explore the half-acre garden, you’ll feel you are in deepest Devon - yet you’re only a five minute drive (or 20 minute walk) from Shaldon village.
The house, attractively clad in UK grown cedar, is designed for every kind of holiday. The living area is welcoming, open and spacious, with large-screen television, Bose home entertainment system, books and games. Doors open from three different sides onto a granite terrace that surrounds the entire side and rear of the property. From here you can watch the children play in the garden, or entertain family and friends beneath a covered open area with sink and other utilities.
For those who prefer a more active holiday, there is ample space to store kayaks, bikes, and sports gear. There is parking for four cars. There is also one 7kwh electric car charging point available for EV owners – by request.
The kitchen appliances are state of the art, from an integrated filtered water tap to the induction hob with down draught extraction system. The ovens are top of the range Neff appliances. One is an integrated Combi Oven, Grill and Microwave and the other a combi oven with ‘hide and slide’ door.
Each bedroom has a French door that opens onto the covered veranda and garden area. The larger super king room can also be configured into two single beds. The second bedroom has a king size bed. The third double futon bed is located on the mezzanine floor above the living room area. The bathroom is unique and is accessed from the hall way between both bedrooms. It has silent heat recovery ventilation with an integrated dual sink, a separate shower and double ended steel bath. There is also an additional toilet at the end of the hallway.
A high chair and travel cot can be made available upon request.
The EV charger is available for guests with electric vehicles. Charging is between 00:00 and 05:00. Charging is set at £0.35/kwh or £12/night (35 kwh).
The garden has a (fenced off) brook running along its edge, creating a gentle, calming soundtrack to the idyllic countryside setting. Not overlooked by any houses, you will feel that you are in deepest Devon - yet only a few minutes drive from the coast, pubs and civilisation! To enhance the natural habitat, fruit bearing hedging and fruit trees have been planted to create a small orchard of apple, pear and plum trees at the bottom of the garden.
There are a number of garden games available for guests: - The ancient Viking game of Kubb and French Boules.
