The White House, family owned since 1927, stands on a promontory overlooking Torcross in South Devon and enjoys dramatic sea views from most windows with a Mediterranean style south facing terrace overlooking the beach below. It has recently been sympathetically renovated, retaining the character of the old house with slate floors and period details. The renovation has cleverly included space for a sleek modern kitchen and dining room, the heart of the house. The owner has created an idyllic retreat where different generations can enjoy family holidays together, or friends meet for convivial weekends. There are two sitting rooms, one, informal, with the television, Wi-Fi and games, the other for quieter pursuits with a wood burner for the winter months and French doors onto the south facing terrace. This terrace is one of the joys of the house with a low slate topped wall and an uninterrupted view across a secluded cove to the craggy headland of Start Point with its lighthouse. Just outside this cliff top property are three sets of steps, two going down to the village of Torcross and one down to the secluded Cove beach. The South West Coast path passes right by the gate and glorious beach and cliff walks start here. It is a very romantic place to stay. At night, from the windows of the two south facing bedrooms, you can see the moonlight shining on the sea, listen to the sounds of the waves on the beach and the Lighthouse beams around the rooms. The view from the other side shows the sweep of Start Bay to Dartmouth and looks down on the fresh water Slapton Ley, with the lively little village of Torcross below. Now is the perfect time to book The White House for your holiday in Devon and avoid the risk of being disapointed due it not being available.

Dishwasher

Why waste part of your holiday doing the washing up. The White House has a dishwasher installed to save you time, and family arguements, about the washing up.
