Accommodation
Pebblebed House dates from the days when Topsham
was an important trading port. The house was converted from
a warehouse at the turn of the century and retains an open feel
with wood boards through most rooms and bright “seaside” décor.
Pebblebed Cellar, home to Pebblebed
Vineyards, is located on the ground floor off of Ferry Road,
separate from the main house.
First Floor
The first floor consists of a large, wonderfully light,
lounge/dining room with good views of the estuary. The sofas
and chairs provide a cosy feel around the wood burning stove in winter.
In summer (and on bright winter days), throw the picture window open
and let the feel of river life flood in!
One of the sofas folds out to provide an optional double
bed. There is a flat-screen TV and music system. A large
wooden table provides a beautiful setting for either an informal
or elegant dinner.
The kitchen is very well equipped, with slate work
surfaces and a large Smeg cooker/oven, microwave and fridge freezer,
and all cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery, glasses etc.
Separate rooms provide a high quality shower, toilet
and changing area.
Second Floor
There are three double bedrooms on the second floor and
a family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms have double beds and stunning
views across the river with balcony access. The third bedroom
has been fitted with two sets of bunk beds one of which has a truckle
forming a double bed. A cupboard off the landing houses a washer/dryer.
Balcony
The wooden balcony is accessed through the main bedroom. The
views up and down the river from the balcony are truly breathtaking. Sit
back and watch the sunset over the Haldon Hills, perhaps while enjoying
a glass or two of Pebblebed rosé.
Parking
The house does not have private parking. However parking is usually
available close by, on Holman Way or in the nearby Quay car park,
just minutes from the house. |
