Sandcastles 15A Fore Street

Sandcastles 15A Fore Street sits above a blue-painted shopfront on Salcombe's Fore Street, a slate plaque reading '15A Sandcastles' marking the door down a narrow alleyway.

A leather sofa beneath a decorative fireplace

The living room pairs brown leather sofas with a decorative fireplace surround and television, abstract artwork and a side lamp finishing the room, a second sofa arrangement set beside the window with a coffee table, and a quieter corner fitted with a wooden bench, a ladder shelf and a patterned rug. The kitchen runs to a checkered tile splashback, its dining table laid with a floral cloth.

Two bedrooms and a hexagon-tiled shower

Both bedrooms take a grey-and-navy palette, one with a grey upholstered bed and navy pillows, the other with white linen and a navy cushion beneath a wall shelf. Towels are folded onto the beds and chests of drawers throughout. The bathroom has a hexagon-tiled shower cubicle behind a wooden door, with a separate utility bathroom holding the washing machine.

Church tower and estuary views

Salcombe's church tower rises above the waterfront buildings, the cove below crowded with sailing boats, a wooded hillside climbing above calm water. A corner shelf carries a lobster print among its ornaments, and the flat is reached by stairs only, up a carpeted staircase and hallway.

A pet-friendly flat above the shops

With two bedrooms and pet-friendly, Sandcastles suits a couple or small family wanting to be right in the centre of Salcombe, close to Small's Cove Beach and East Portlemouth Beach.
