Croyde Beach Breaks – Four Coastal Retreats Just Steps from Croyde Beach
Four contemporary beach cabins in Croyde sleeping 2–6 guests, with hot tubs or a sauna, private outdoor spaces and the beach just a short stroll away.
Hidden just behind the dunes of Croyde Beach, Croyde Beach Breaks is a collection of four contemporary cabins in one of North Devon’s most sought-after coastal locations. Carefully reimagined for modern beach holidays with sustainability in mind, each one combines stylish interiors with practical touches inspired by life on the coast, from outdoor showers and secure gardens to dedicated storage for surfboards, bikes and beach gear.

With hot tubs or a sauna, secure gardens and the shoreline just minutes away, these are places designed for making the most of everything that draws visitors back to Croyde year after year.
