On the edge of the ocean, dog-friendly Cobalt promises the most extraordinary retreat for up to six guests and one canine companion. Nestled into the clifftops, our coastal escape promises endless inspiration for salt-kissed sojourns, whether you're admiring glittering sea vistas in the hot tub or simply dining alfresco. Step inside to uncover beautifully styled interiors, where tasteful coastal nuances and sea-view windows captivate. From the gorgeous living areas overlooking the water to the three sumptuous bedrooms, comfort and luxury reside throughout. Venturing outside, the magic continues with tiered decking areas that make the most of the oceanside backdrop. Recline in the sunshine, gather around the outdoor dining table with champagne in hand, and settle into the hot tub to admire the roll of the waves beyond. From exploring the beautiful Babbacombe with hidden coves and sandy beaches or indulging in sunbathing or storm watching from the comfort of Cobalt - heavenly staycations await, no matter the season.


Living

Welcoming with magnificent coastal views and bright, airy interiors is the luxurious living space. Embracing a soothing palette with organic textures and tasteful artwork, the room is framed with bi-fold doors leading to a suntrap terrace. Settle into the teal and cream sofas bedecked in plump cushions for fireside moments in winter, whilst atmospheric skies dance over the sea. In summer, open the doors to let the sun stream in and relax into the windowside armchair. For added entertainment, a radio plays out melodic soundtracks, whilst a TV with Netflix beckons for movie nights.


Kitchen and Dining

A handsome space harmonising with the coastal views beyond, the kitchen is a dream for crafting delicious dishes. Sleek wooden worktops are complemented with steel finishes and a large Belfast sink, whilst tiered slate-blue cabinetry hosts an array of equipment, including Ninja and Nespresso appliances, a double-oven, a dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, and an integrated wine rack for bottles of vintage specials. In the centre of the room, a family-sized dining table with chairs for six beckons for breakfasts and banquets full of flavoursome local produce.


Sleeping & Bathing

Residing on the first floor, the master bedroom features a calming colour palette and ocean-inspired décor. Affording views over the sparkling sea, the super-king-size bed is draped in the highest quality linens and topped with comfortable pillows and throws. A grey blanket box nestles at the end of the bed and is paired with generous storage for stowing your belongings. Completing this space is a delightful ensuite bathroom with ceramic tiles in shades of pale blue, along with a shower and a separate bath.

The second bedroom rests on the first floor and is just perfect for children or friends. A twin room with two single beds, it enjoys sublime vistas over the coastline towards Oddicombe and beyond and offers a sweet sanctuary for slumbering. For added privacy and convenience, this bedroom benefits from its own ensuite bathroom, complete with a spacious walk-in shower.

Situated on the lower ground floor, the stunning third bedroom with its own patio is a picture of serenity. Enjoying subtle nautical inflections, it promises nights of blissful slumber with soothing hues and a king size bed adorned in the finest linens. For somewhere to relax with a book is a reclining chair, while encouraging lingering lie-ins are the dreamiest of sea views, visible from large windows and a patio door. You'll also find an ensuite with a walk-in shower.


Outdoor space

For the ocean lovers, there's nowhere more beautiful to reside than the tiered garden. A heavenly space framed by greenery and overlooking open sea, it tempts with blissful moments under open skies. Gather around the dining table and chairs for up to eight people or the bistro set for two for alfresco feasts in the sunshine. For further moments of relaxation, sink into the comfort of the outdoor lounge chairs or two-seater-sofa, or relax into the waters of the inviting Luso Spas hot tub. Appealing to all the chefs, an outdoor pizza oven can also be found for those stone-baked delights.

We know how gorgeous our retreats are, but don’t just take our word for it – here’s what previous guests say about Cobalt:

Summary first:' If I owned the cottage I wouldn't be renting it I would be living there'. Cottage in a superb location with great views over the bay. The cottage is finished to a very high standard and is well equipped. Bedrooms are spacious and comfortable.. Walks available from the property but note the property is on a hill and most routes have steps. Welcome pack was very good

We really enjoyed our stay at Cobalt, stunning sea views over Babbacombe Bay, we will certainly return
