Thurlestone is a relaxed coastal village between Bantham and Hope Cove, with sweeping sea views, long stretches of sand at Thurlestone and South Milton Sands, and the South West Coast Path running almost past the door. Choosing a large holiday cottage in Thurlestone gives multiple families or a group of friends roomy, self-catering accommodation within easy reach of the beach, the local pub and the local shop, with the added bonus of Thurlestone Golf Club and a coastal path that makes it easy to build a walk into the day.
For bigger groups, days tend to revolve around the shoreline. Some might take the clifftop path towards Hope Cove, stopping at the Beach House café above South Milton Sands for coffee or lunch, while others head to the beach at Yarmer or Leas Foot for a quieter patch of sand and a swim. Later on, everyone can come back to cook together in a generous kitchen, light the barbecue in the garden or wander down to The Village Inn for supper and a pint. With its mix of family-friendly beaches, big skies and walkable options for food and fresh air, Thurlestone suits groups who want a laid-back base with plenty of room to relax together.
