Coronation House – A Shabby Chic Coastal Haven with Sweeping Sea Views Perched peacefully above Ilfracombe’s picturesque harbour, Coronation House is a delightful 5-bedroom terraced home that blends shabby chic character with the timeless beauty of the sea. From its elevated position, it enjoys uninterrupted 180° views stretching across the harbour and out over the sparkling Bristol Channel – views that guests often say feel like watching a living canvas, ever-changing with the seasons, the skies, and the tides. Spread across three wooden, ruggedly charming floors, the house has an inviting air of relaxed ease. Its shabby chic style runs throughout – a gentle mix of charm and comfort, with airy bedrooms, eclectic touches, and plenty of space for gathering together or slipping away to a quiet nook (the children especially love the cosy hideaway beneath the stairs). At its heart lies a well-equipped social kitchen, the perfect hub for cooking, sharing meals, and laughter that lingers long into the evening. A small but lovely balcony adds an extra touch of seaside charm, ideal for a quiet coffee or glass of wine. The location is just as special. Within 4 minutes you can stroll down to the harbour, alive with fishing boats and the salty tang of the sea. Just 2 minutes away, Ilfracombe’s high street hums with cafés and shops, while a 10-minute wander leads you to The Thatched Inn – a 17th-century Grade II listed pub brimming with character, renowned for its hearty fare and buzzing beer garden that bursts into life in the summer sun. Coronation House is more than a place to stay – it is a shabby chic sanctuary by the sea, a home of charm and ease. The windows at the back of the property frame sweeping views, while every corner invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and ease into North Devon time – experiencing, even for a short stay, the simple joy of life by the sea!
