3-bedroom family and pet friendly house within walking distance of Croyde beach

Oyster Cove is a lovely 3-bedroom semi-detached holiday home situated on the edge of the North Devon village of Croyde.

This stunning family and pet friendly property offers a quiet and secluded holiday home in an area that provides something for everyone. It’s only a short walk over the dunes to the renowned surfers beach and another short walk in the other direction to the centre of this lively village, which has great pubs, restaurants and shops. There really is something for all the family.

Sleeping up to eight, the house is great for either families searching for a beach holiday, or groups of friends wanting to relax or enjoy the local water-sports.

Oyster Cove, which is tastefully decorated throughout has an open plan living area. The comfy lounge has large sofas and bean bags perfect for watching the TV, as well as a nice wood table to seat all the family for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Finally there is the well-equipped kitchen, which has a fridge/freezer, a coffee machine, a dishwasher and a washing machine.

French doors open out from the lounge area on to a wood decked terrace where guests are welcome to relax or keep an eye on the children as they play in the fully enclosed garden, which is also ideal for dogs. The garden, which has a nice lawn area has a large paved patio from which the ocean can be seen. Within the handy shed, there are several items for the beach, as well as a parasol for the big outside table. Guests are also able to take advantage of the BBQ, which is provided and located on the patio.

Down a few small steps from the living area are the three bedrooms, these include a large twin with two full size single beds and large storage cupboard, a colourful bunk room with two sets of bunk beds, and finally the Master bedroom with double bed and en-suite shower room. The final room is the spacious family bathroom, which has a separate shower and bath.

When staying at Oyster Cove, Croyde village is literally on the doorstep, and exudes quaint charm albeit with the perfect blend of a cool and invigorating lifestyle. Enjoy a thrilling day surfing or just having fun on one of the fantastic beaches at Croyde, Putsborough and Saunton, then stroll back to your beautiful holiday home, relax, refresh and take another stroll and enjoy a great night out in the village where you find fabulous pub serving locally sourced food. The village also has its own small selection of shops selling day-to-day essentials meaning it is possible you may not need to get back in the car once you have arrived at this gorgeous house.

Please note Oyster Cove is one of three properties located at Leadengate House. It has its own car parking for two cars and an outside, lockable shed where surfboards can be kept.

Two dogs are welcome at Oyster Cove. There is an additional charge of £30 per dog per booking. Please notify us at time of booking, and the additional charge will be added to your booking. All payments must be made prior to arrival.

Please note there is building work on a neighbouring property.

Not looked after, us or the property
I raised several issues when we arrived, had a response that they would be addressed but they weren’t, when I chased it up, a handy man had attended when we were out, our fault we weren’t there even though it hadn’t been communicated to us that he was coming in that day, and no time or instructions were passed to us. Our bed collapsed in day one but this wasn’t an emergency. A light didn’t work in a bathroom and the batteries missing from a remote made it unusable the whole stay. Nothing to flip an egg, nothing to peg washing. The property is tired and was unclean. A skittle under our bed, Dorito under the lounge table, clothing sticker under a chair in the bedroom, obviously nothing gets moved when cleaning which is poor with Covid in existence. The local person who I assume should be looking after us, communication was terrible. Amanda from the property management company has communicated with me and she has taken on board these points however nothing was done during our stay and we have not been compensated.

A great stay!
Great house positioned within walking distance to the beach and the town Centre. We were not in the house very often as we were out doing all the activities. I would suggest perhaps a few more kitchen utensils for cooking but other than that it was great.

A really good property. Simple, well maintained and in a really good spot for the beach and town. We had an issue with the boiler upon arrival and we were visited and it was sorted within the hour. Would recommend.

Nice clean, warm, comfortable accommodation plenty of space. Ideal place to come back to after a winter walk or playing in the surf. Look forward to going back in the summer, so we can enjoy the garden.

Found the property was ideal for our family having all the rooms on one level was really good all the properties facilities were fine and the garden was lovely. Couple of things though the television was very poor for the size of room far to small ,the sound from it was pathetic. Overall enjoyed our stay. Need to sort out a light at the back patio onto the decking

Well equipped with plenty of room. Convenient located for the beach.
We had a wet week so spent more time in the property than normal. Lovely 3 days on the beach- kids loved the surfing lessons with Croyde surfing- very helpful. Struggled to dry towels etc, the property was quite damp. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean.

The photographs of oyster cove do not do it justice. A lovely spacious cottage within easy reach of the village. Very Comfortable and clean with everything you need. The chocolate cake on arrival was a lovely gesture. We will definitely be returning in the near future.

great location
we were 5 adults and 2 children 6 and 8 and Mabel the dog. The accommodation suited us fine. it was only a short walk to the beach and into the village. the weather was a bit mixed but the kids loved body boarding and all the rock pools and the pub "The Thatch" was child and dog friendly if you sat in the bar or outside.

Perfect
Clean, well equipped, perfectly placed for the dunes and the beach. Dog friendly during the quiet season and close to the local village pubs and cafes, most of which were also dog friendly. The property is 5 minutes walk to the wonderful beach, dunes and the many paths along the cliffs, A couple of hours walking will take you some of the best beaches we've ever visited! The property itself was spacious, clean, well equipped and tastefully furnished with the added bonus of a great garden space. We shall definitely be back.

The house was even better than we had seen online, and the garden too.
The house was great for our family stay, lots of space and flexibility in sleeping arrangements plus ample bathroom facilities. The house was clean and beds fine. Sitting area comfortable too. The kitchen was fine although when we were all seated it was a bit of a squash with high chair too. The garden was ample for 4 kids and our dog - great location from top patio for sundowners! Beach was a handy walk away as was the local pub. All good with the exception that building works was going on in the adjacent property with drilling and hammering starting around 7.45 am every day not good on holiday, waking kids up and us too. Also parking was difficult and access due to the 2 skips and 3 builders vans, plus gardeners vehicle on the Wednesday side gate left open - not good for an escapee dog!

beautiful property that has everything you need for an enjoyable stay
Fantastic property for two families, well equipped, comfortable and close to the beach and the local pub, what more can you want. Beautiful view of the hills and we could even hear the sheep which was lovely. The garden was lovely and we had great BBQ's in the evenings. My Labrador had a lovely time too. Many Thanks from "The Smith's" and "The Fry's".
