Monkey's Fist

Monkey's Fist is a stone-built terraced cottage on Courtenay Street in Salcombe, red-trimmed sash windows set into the slate-roofed front elevation.

Two sofas with sliding doors to the balcony

The living room pairs two sofas with sliding glass doors onto the balcony, a wooden staircase rising behind, a further sitting area with folding doors open onto a second balcony.

Four bedrooms including a telescope room

Four bedrooms include one with a telescope by the window and its own balcony door, another beneath a sloped ceiling with fitted wardrobes, a twin with red and blue cushions, and a white-framed bunk bed room. The bathrooms include a bath with a glass shower screen, and a wall-mounted sink beside a further shower and bath.

A light oak kitchen with a glass table

The light oak kitchen has a round glass-topped dining table, a further wooden dining table for four set with wicker chairs close to a large window.

Balconies over the harbour

A yellow bistro table sits on a balcony overlooking the harbour and rooftops, a round table under a pergola taking in the same wide harbour and hillside view, a walled garden with a wood-fired pizza oven completing the outdoor space.

A pizza oven in the walled garden

Monkey's Fist gives a large family or several couples real space right in Salcombe — four bedrooms, three bathrooms and sea views over the harbour, the walled garden and pizza oven ideal for cooking together in the evening. Nothing about it feels like a quick weekend let, which suits a large family or several couples staying longer in Salcombe.
