Dawlish
Sandy shores, black swans and a cottage made for family stays
Dawlish is a seaside resort in South Devon with a sandy beach, traditional amusements and everyday amenities close at hand. Black swans are a well-known feature of the town, and a riverside walk runs through the centre alongside a variety of shops and cafes. Coastal Haven sleeps six across three bedrooms: two king-size rooms and a bunk bedroom well suited to younger guests, all served by a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. The lounge has a wood burner and Smart TV for quieter evenings, and the kitchen is equipped with an electric oven and hob, air fryer, dishwasher and a Bosch Tassimo coffee machine. A breakfast bar handles casual meals, while a separate dining room suits the whole group.
To the rear of Coastal Haven, a few steps lead to an enclosed tiered garden with artificial turf and a raised decking area beneath a pergola, furnished with bistro-style seating. An outside WC adds a practical touch. Pay and display parking is available nearby, up to two dogs are welcome, and the property is dressed for Christmas stays.
