Charming Boutique Guest House set in the heart of the South Hams, Malborough, Devon

• FH Price: £985,000 Asking Price
Set within the heart of the picturesque South Hams village of Marlborough, just a short drive from the ever-popular estuary town of Salcombe, Brightham House is an exceptional boutique guest house perfectly positioned to capture a wide range of visitors. The location proves particularly attractive to walkers and those seeking a quieter base within easy access of the coast, while the inclusion of two dog-friendly letting rooms has made it especially popular with guests travelling with pets.

The property offers eight beautifully presented letting bedrooms, each individually styled with its own character and theme, all maintained to a very high standard. The welcoming entrance reception leads through to a charming farmhouse-style kitchen, complemented by a spacious sitting room, snug bar and an open-plan dining area. Bi-fold doors open seamlessly onto the garden, creating a flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The owner’s private accommodation is situated on the second floor, cleverly built into the eaves, and comprises two generous double bedrooms, a lobby landing, and a family bathroom—providing a well-proportioned and functional living space separate from the guest areas.

Externally, the landscaped garden is a true highlight! Thoughtfully designed with a central water feature, a rear bar area, and ample seating for guests to relax and unwind. A versatile garden room, currently utilised as a gym, further enhances the offering and provides scope for alternative uses.

Altogether, Brightham House represents a rare opportunity to acquire a highly regarded, design-led guest house in one of Devon’s most sought-after locations, blending lifestyle appeal with strong trading fundamentals.
