New Property - April 2013

The Moorings is a stylish and beautifully presented semi-detached house with stunning views over the Salcombe estuary, and within walking distance of the fine sandy beach at East Portlemouth.  The reverse-level, contemporary accommodation has been fully refurbished to a high standard throughout and incorporates a superb, spacious area of decking, ideal for al fresco entertaining. 

LOCATION This property is set at the end of a small row of semi-detatched houses in the village of East Portlemouth, approximately 5-10 minutes downhill walk to the beach and slipway.  The passenger ferry offers quick access to Salcombe with its array of cafes, pubs, boutique shops and galleries.  The South Devon Coast Path is nearby with lovely walks to Gara Rock and beyond.
