Surrounded by National Trust countryside, the valley hugs the rugged coastline and sweeps down to the sandy beach, which is only about 600 yards from the house. This hidden treasure trove is the epitome of escapism, yet despite the surroundings, the convenience of having the boutique, family owned, Soar Mill Cove Hotel and Spa as your neighbour, ensures rural life does not always have to be remote; the hotel offers a superb spa, restaurant, bar and al fresco terrace. The beach at Soar Mill Cove is an idyllic sandy cove, accessible only on foot or by boat, and the south-west coast path weaves its way from Salcombe and Bolt Head through Soar Mill Cove to Bolberry Down and Hope Cove. The nearby village of Malborough offers a good range of local amenities including a primary school, 2 pubs, a post office and a filling station with a small supermarket. The chic and popular coastal town of Salcombe offers a vibrant town centre bursting with independent shops, boutiques, cafés, restaurants and pubs, and is about 4 miles. The larger town of Kingsbridge is about 4 miles and sits at the head of the Salcombe and Kingsbridge Estuary. The market town offers a great range of shops and facilities including a cinema, health centre and small hospital, leisure centre with indoor pool, and the secondary school, Kingsbridge Academy. The mainline rail station at Totnes (18 miles) links London in about 2 hrs 40 mins. <br/><br/>THE PROPERTY <br/>West Soar Barn originally dates from the late 1800s, but it is now a contemporary, light and spacious detached house, which has been beautifully designed to ensure the setting, and the view is always the focus. <br/><br/>The house has been fully refurbished throughout, with superb attention to detail visible at every turn. The ground floor comprises a wonderful and welcoming entrance hall with utility / boot room, cloakroom and walk in pantry.
