Shaldon cottages
This unspoilt fishing village sits on the Teign estuary in South Devon. Across the water is Teignmouth, and both villages are still linked to the fishing industry. There is a great selection of shops and eateries, and if you want to step away from your everyday busy life then this is the place for you. Shaldon Beach is ideal for swimming, rock pooling or just sitting back and chilling. Set within an acre of garden in a seaside village location, Shaldon Zoo is a delight even before you enter. Meet an amazing array of primates, exotic birds and more as you explore the gorgeous green surroundings. Then a short stroll to the beach! Excitingly the Ness beach is accessed via ‘Smugglers tunnel’, a dark and winding route through the cliff that is guaranteed to delight children and adults alike. The secluded cove is known to have been used by smugglers in the past but is now perfect for swimming in summer and a seaside stroll along the beach in cooler climes.
