If you’re after postcard-perfect vistas, this smart townhouse overlooking Salcombe's harbour fills the bill. Ideal for extended families wanting to holiday together without crowding each other, the four bedrooms are spaced apart across three floors with a downstairs double bunk bed room, complete with a cosy TV den that little ones will love. What’s more, there’s a sun-trap private terrace with a barbecue for alfresco meals on long summer nights. Perched along a quiet street, and yet just a short stroll from the bustling high street and waterfront to jump on a boat (your host can organise champagne cruises), its location is spot on.
