About Braunton - Accessible Bungalow

Our accessible bungalow in Braunton sleeps 4 guests comfortably, with an additional sofa bed that sleeps up to 2. This single-storey property has been thoughtfully designed for wheelchair users and mobility-impaired guests to enjoy a holiday in Devon with their dogs. The property is the only property in our local area to offer a tracking ceiling hoist that runs from the master bedroom into the ensuite wetroom. Hoist users are required to bring their own sling and only operate if they are competent at doing so – please refer to the manual and user guidelines located in the bedroom. The hoist is a Freeway Transactive Xtra and has a maximum weight limit of 130kg

The property has 2 bedrooms; one master bedroom with an ensuite wet room, and a twin bedroom. Cupboard space has been cleverly built into the walls to maximise floor space and provide ease of access.

The master bed features a Tempur Adjustable Massage bed (non-profiling). This bed is king size and is independently adjustable on either side using wireless remote controls.

The single beds in the twin bedroom are electrically adjustable (non-profiling) using a wired handset.

In the ensuite wetroom, you’ll find a shower, WC with rails (with seat raiser available), shower seat, a tilt-in-space chair with commode, and a stool. There is also a family bathroom with an accessible walk-in bath.

The modern fully-equipped kitchen features a tuck-away oven, dishwasher, height adjustable sink, height adjustable hob, remote-controlled extractor fan, and an easy-pour kettle. The beautiful breakfast bar, complete with 2 easy access sockets, creates a wonderfully relaxed space for family cooking and dining.

The spacious open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area is perfect for relaxing and entertaining. In the living area, you’ll find a corner sofa (sofa bed) and an electric riser chair which are centered around a smart TV on an extendable bracket arm. The sliding doors from the living area open up onto a sun trap decking area which leads onto the patio and wheelchair-accessible picnic table. The attractive garden wraps right around the property and is fully enclosed to keep dogs secure.

Outside, you’ll also find a laundry shed with a washing machine, tumble dryer, freezer, and an iron and ironing board.

Just 3 minutes’ drive from Saunton Beach, our new accessible bungalow occupies a quiet detached location and offers all of the same perks as breaks at the Villas, including;

• No dog limit
• Fully enclosed garden with outdoor furniture
• Dogs able to access all areas and blankets provided for furniture
• Free parking at Saunton Beach (worth £8.50 per day)

All-terrain Landeez wheelchairs are available to hire from the Beach Shop, pre-booking is essential.

The accessible bungalow is situated within walking distance of Braunton village centre and 1.3 miles (3 minutes drive) away from Saunton Sands Beach. It is also on the main bus route which serves all of the local coastal areas, including Saunton, Croyde, and in the opposite direction Westward Ho!.
