The tang of the briny

Blow away the cobwebs right on the harbour in Devon’s Shaldon. Estuary Point is all bobbing boats, paddleboards, ferry rides and beach huts. That and a ten-seat hot tub and games room. Get some sand between your toes and be seduced by the roll of the tide, the tang of the briny and the call of the seabirds.

Cobweb-free coastal break

Blow away the cobwebs on a Devon coastal holiday with its feet firmly in the water. A few steps away from the beach at Shaldon, Estuary Point is all bobbing boats, paddleboards, ferry rides and beach huts. Get some sand between your toes and come home to enough space for 18 friends, family or hens, plus a dog (or few).

Estuary Point looks like it’s gone wild-swimming, but it never forgets the essentials, thanks to its central village location with all the cosy cafes, piratical pubs and crab shacks you could ever need. Celebrate your stay on the sands, then end the day in the private ten-seat hot tub or clinking glasses in the front garden looking out to sea.

Quirky, colourful interiors evoke the bright, breezy, fresh feel of the English coast. Four view-friendly storeys pile on the fun. Get into the games room for table football and pool. And don’t miss out on movies and matches, with full Sky and BT packages, plus Amazon Prime Video and Netflix.

Dine all year round out on the terrace, dip into the outdoor hot tub, cook on the Ninja air-fryer, the gas barbie or the range. Or don’t: call up our chefs and pop off for a paddle. Sleep to the lulling roll of the tide, the tang of the briny and the call of the guillemots on the Atlantic breeze. Wake to views over Teignmouth, Shaldon Bridge and Dartmoor.

Gardens and grounds

Who needs a garden when the beach and the breakers practically lap at the door? Estuary Point delivers that but it also comes with an enclosed courtyard for dogs. You’ll find your ten-seat hot tub here for some well-earned relaxation. There are deck chairs on hand for you to use to keep you comfortable on the seashore.

Cook on the gas barbecue with meat from the farmers’ market and local butchers and fish from The Salty, and spend time under the retractable awning with fine wine and good company. Or hop across the road with your chargrilled feast and enjoy it with on the beach during low tide.

Living spaces

Bright, breezy and thoroughly quirky in blues and yellows, the interiors at Estuary Point are what the seaside is all about. With views across the bay with its bobbing boats, ferries, maybe the odd dolphin, and the excited chatter of children carried on the breeze, it’ll take a lot to prise you away from the sash windows.

Maybe you’ll prefer the spacious, luxurious sitting-room with open plan dining option. Or close off the bi-fold doors and get cosy together for the full Sky and BT packages, including sports, plus Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. Let your competitive side out on the pool table and table football in the games room. Tuck into the Prosecco and biscuits from your hamper, dip into the full bookcase and break out the board games. You’re just getting started.

Cooking and dining

Kitchen options are good, with the range cooker and dual oven plus a portable oven and air fryer. Prefer to be out on the sand rather than in front of the stove? We have professional chefs on standby. And you’ve an abundance of fresh, fishy or otherwise takeaways on your doorstep, including Thai Smile and Eastern Eye.

Eat around the feast-friendly 20-seat dining table or around the equally large patio table in the garden. Fire up the gas barbecue and stock up the fridges with goodies from the village store, Morrison’s and traditional village staples, such as the farmers’ market, The Salty for fish and Orsman’s butchers for your bangers.

Raise a glass on the village green when you wash down your curried lamb shank or moules marinieres with a real ale at the London Inn. Stay beachside for the dog-friendly Ferry Boat, home to great views, a garden grill and merry live music. Or tuck into fresh, fishy fare on the balcony or river terrace at The Clipper.

Pop into The Bucket and Spade for a Bucket Burger, pesto gnocchi or three-bean chilli. Try The Crab Shack in Teignmouth for mussels, oysters and crab claws. Or head to The Thatched Tavern in Maidencombe for cider-steamed Exmouth mussels, ale-battered haddock or spiced aubergine and artichoke caponata.

What people say

What people say

An amazing property. We planned a lazy week with friends here and it 100% delivered. All the rooms were large, well decorated and catered for a large group. We loved the hot tub, and it was nice to have a dining table to comfortably sit 10+. I'd definitely recommend and will likely book again. - Sally
A truly grand property with spacious rooms and tasteful decoration. The parking is a real bonus too. Great location with lovely views. Short walks to basic shops and good cafes. The ferry to Teignmouth (less than 5 minutes and only a short walk from the house) is quite a novelty, saves a car journey and the hassle of finding somewhere to park. - Sarah
Definitely recommend this property for a family holiday. Plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms/TVs. Big dining table with plenty of seating for our family of 10, no one was trapped! Lovely views. Nice outdoor space with hot tub. Parking for two biggish cars, huge bonus! Great location, no steep hills to walk up! Everything you need is close by. Our family ages from 2 to 64, all had a wonderful holiday here. - Paul
