With views of the sea this amazing holiday home is tucked away in the popular seaside village of Torcross on the Devon coast and really has something for everyone. Swan Haven is perfect for either large family reunions or smaller parties. It has an indoor swimming pool which is open all year round, a games room, a sunny terrace with views of Start Bay, plenty of living space and a large rear garden. There are six bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a snug/TV room, a dining area to seat 12, a large sitting room with woodburner and a conservatory, so if you’ve had enough of your fellow guests you can always get away from them for some peace and quiet. Alternatively wander down to the beach, walk through the Slapton Ley bird sanctuary or go for a bracing cliff walk along the south west coastal path. Torcross is midway between Dartmouth and Kingsbridge, both well worth visiting and many of the local attractions, as well as the beaches and picturesque Dartmoor are easily accessible.
Front terrace over pool room with garden tables and chairs to seat 12.
Rear garden with patio area, plenty of lawn and thatched dining area with table and chairs to seat 8 (available from May to September) and gas barbecue.

Torcross is located at the southern end of Slapton Sands, a narrow strip of land between the beautiful Start Bay and the stunning freshwater lake at Slapton Ley Nature Reserve. Surrounded by picturesque scenery on all sides, Torcross is home to some fantastic cafés and pubs and is the perfect place to enjoy a sunny afternoon watching (or participating in) watersports and fishing on the vast shingle beach.
While modern day guests will find a sleepy fishing village, nestling peacefully at the edge of a 2 mile beach, the area has a fascinating past. Most famously, during World War II, Torcross was evacuated along some of its neighbouring villages to make way for 15,000 allied troops who needed the beach to practice for the D-Day landings. Tragically, the operation ended in disaster, and the Exercise Tiger memorial at the edge of the ley commemorates the 800 Americans who lost their lives in the bay.
The short coastal walk from Torcross to neighbouring Beesands provides sensational views and is dotted with remnants from the military presence, as well as traces of the area's slate quarrying past. Beesands is also home to the fantastic seafood shack Britannia @ The Beach and the popular pub The Cricket Inn.
Continuing further along this stretch of rugged coastline (if you have the stamina) you will reach Hallsands and the Lighthouse. Meanwhile, a short drive will take you to wonderful beaches at Blackpool Sands in one direction or the more remote Lannacombe, Mattiscombe and Gara Rock in the other.
Twenty minutes away, the village of East Portlemouth with its golden sandy beaches, is where you can take the passenger ferry over the estuary to Salcombe, famous for its shops, sailing and great pubs and restaurants. The towns of Dartmouth and Kingsbridge are also within easy reach while the villages nearest neighbour, Slapton also boasts two great pubs.
