A Picturesque Cottage on the Oldest Street in Braunton
A sweet study in Robin’s egg blue and breezy seashell whites, this charming coastal garden cottage feels like a page out of a picture book. Quaint in all the right ways, this vacation home rental in Devon is a five-minute walk to the seaside through a classic, English country village. Its interiors are charmed too, a space of cheery white walls offset by gentle blue wainscoting and spots of exposed stone, tidy sash windows, inglenook fireplaces and low doors and intimate ceilings supported by original, hand-hewn beams.

Set on the outskirts of a classic seaside village in a rural part of North Devon, this garden cottage offers a charming refuge post picnicking, beach combing, surfing or cycling the coastline. It’s set at the end of a picturesque street lined with traditional Devonshire cottages, a storybook pretty and airy home offering a homespun, happy atmosphere that envelops guests in calming shades of palest seaside blue throughout.
We love the robust, woodburning stove alcoves backed by exposed slate stones, multipaned banks of gleaming sash windows, gently undulating walls and wide planked wood floors in the dining area, and neat, simply appointed bedrooms. Furnishings continue the refined English country look—trimly shaded wall sconces hang above sideboards, old school Windsor backed chairs line the farm table, heirloom-styled brass-bed frames hold Emma mattresses, and a private cottage garden is accessed via a bright sunroom or orangery, a windowed room jutting into the sweet garden, accented by a backdrop of exposed stone.
The modern cheery kitchen overlooks the loose, wild garden and is fully equipped with updated appliances ideal for family meal prep. Tech types will relish the home’s high speed Wifi plus the TV room and entertainment options.
AROUND
Located a quick walk from the heart of Braunton village, this vacation home rental in Devon is pure English country inside and out. Spacious and bright, the structure occupies a lush, bird-filled plot, flowering with classic garden blooms such as hydrangea, rose and viburnum, thick fig trees and cheery stands of sunflowers.
The beach at Braunton is a five-minute stroll away, and the favored surfing beaches at Saunton, Croyde, Putsborough and Woolacombe are all less than 10 miles away. All the area beaches are wide and sandy, ideal spots for swimming, body boarding and beachcombing. Small restaurants and bars are tucked into Braunton’s streets alongside several surf shops, and the town’s St. Brannocks Church is worth a visit. Nearby Ilfracombe offers an aquarium and an impressive Damien Hirst statue, Combe Martin has a dinosaur park, and Exmoor, a zoo. Hikers can walk the path of the Exmoor moorland or the pretty coastal footpath, and the Tarka Trail offers miles of fun and scenery for cyclists.
