Sitting less than 100 metres from sandy Paignton Beach, this modern studio apartment offers an ideal seaside getaway for a couple or solo traveller looking to explore this scenic slice of the South Devon coast.

Inside, the decor is all crisp whites and nautical nods to the home’s privileged locale. An inviting king-size bed takes centre stage, while a window-side reading nook welcomes early morning coffees in the armchair while taking in beautiful beach and promenade views. For even more uninterrupted vistas, step out onto the small private balcony and breathe in the fresh, salty air. Enjoy the sunset here over a glass of wine before rustling up a tasty meal in the kitchenette or going out to explore the many nearby restaurants, treating yourself to their catch of the day, of course.

When it comes to ways to fill your days here, Paignton Beach is an obvious must, as is its promenade with its views across the bay towards Torquay. You’ve also got the delights of Paignton Pier nearby – dating back to 1897 and boasting a plethora of amusements, games and cafes – while the popular seaside resort of Torquay is ten minutes away by car.
