Luxury holiday show homes and café open at Gara Rock

23rd August 2011 Print
Gara Rock, South Devon

Devonshire locals are invited to visit two luxurious, interior-designed show homes and a superb clifftop café that have been opened at the spectacular South Devon development, Gara Rock, to coincide with the summer holidays. The show cottage and show apartment will provide prospective buyers with their first glimpse of Gara Rock life and will also offer visitors the opportunity to enjoy a great day out.

Created by talented up-and-coming Devonshire designer Henrietta Thorn, the three-bedroom cottage and stylish apartment feature bespoke décor and offer breathtaking views of the rolling countryside and nearby clifftops. Henrietta has elegantly blended the best of contemporary design with raw, natural materials which draw in the essence of the coast. Sand coloured sofas, hardwood dining furniture, light-filled bedrooms and decorative wall hangings all demonstrate a delicate balance of modern and traditional furnishing, whilst the neutral colours and natural fibres nurture a warm and homely atmosphere.

Henrietta comments: “I really wanted to create an interior that is cohesive with the surrounding coastal environment yet still provide visitors with a cosy escape from the outside world.

“The show holiday homes are beautifully fitted to the highest specification, with modern fixtures including stylish light fittings, under-floor heating, open plan kitchen and living areas and glossy timber floors. The kitchens feature an integrated fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave and granite work surfaces and properties also benefit from bathrooms equipped with chrome heated towel rails and spacious, glass screened showers.”

Gara Rock is a truly exclusive and isolated development of just five very special cottages and 14 apartments. There will also be a boutique hotel with 18 bedrooms, a fabulous restaurant and an exclusive holistic spa that will feature indoor and outdoor swimming pools, treatment rooms, a steam room, a sauna and a Jacuzzi. Upon completion this winter, all buyers and guests will have access to these facilities.

Chairman of Coast Group, Rob Dickson, says: “Gara Rock provides exceptional and unique holiday accommodation for those seeking a very special and secluded get-away. We expect the summer will be a busy period as second home buyers start thinking about future holiday properties and investment opportunities. We are also looking forward to day visitors viewing these beautiful homes whilst enjoying the spectacular views, coastal walks and the delicious home made food that the Lookout Café offers.”

Homes at Gara Rock start at £550,000 for a two bedroom apartment. Three bedroom cottages start at £650,000 and a three bedroom Rotunda penthouse suite is available for £1,200,000.

Buyers can visit Gara Rock for the breathtaking coastal walks and the Lookout Café for scrumptious homemade sandwiches, cakes, ice cream and refreshments, every day between 10am and 5pm; however viewings are by appointment only. Visit gararock.com to arrange a slot.
