Jack's Stay, Salcombe, S.Devon - Stylish apartment in peaceful private location

You will find Jack's Stay tucked away on a peaceful private estate with parking just a short stroll into the town centre of Salcombe. This beach house style property is more than just a nod to Salcombe’s rich maritime history. Perfectly located just a short walk down to the thriving town center of Salcombe. The name derives from the sea with “Jack”; an old slang term meaning ‘Sailor’ and “Stay”; a nautical term referring to a cable between two ships or a ship to a port which was used to haul goods and sometimes even personnel between two points.

Jack’s Stay is a lovely 4-guest retreat on the first floor of a popular private estate at Shadycombe Court. With a fantastic balcony view of Salcombe's Holy Trinity church and a glimpse of the shimmering estuary, this property oozes rejuvenation and tranquility from a seaside holiday rental.

Furnished to a high standard, Jack’s Stay presents a holiday suited best to a small family or friends reunion and a furry friend.

The newly fitted modern contemporary kitchen presents functionality and simplicity. Gorgeous oak worktops, built-in microwave, electric oven and ceramic hob, full-sized Rangemaster fridge-freezer and Bosch dishwasher allow for gourmet meals to be rustled up if desired. The four-seated oak breakfast bar makes for a morning coffee perch, while planning your day ahead.

The lounge is a bright and airy space with clean lines and bold colours to give that effortlessly cool feeling. Jack’s Stay is designed for guests to relax, take a load off with the knitted foot poufs and enjoy the comfort of the Chaise sofa while watching Cable TV or streaming via the Fibre Broadband. Indoor window shutters open and close, dependent on the mood required.

The balcony can be accessed via the lounge and both bedrooms, enticing you in for morning al-fresco breakfasts or sunsets and sundowners. This is coastal contemporary living at it’s finest.

A quick word from the property owners of Jack's Stay:
Jack’s Stay is more than just a nod to Salcombe’s rich maritime history. Its very name illustrates the affection our family has for the sea
‘Jack’ is a old slang term meaning ‘Sailor’ and ‘Stay’ is a nautical term referring to a cable, between two ships or a ship to a port which was used to haul goods and sometimes even personnel between two points.
Our seafaring family history spans generations. With childhood family holidays in Salcombe, an Aunt from neighbouring Cornwall and a stint at Dartmouth Naval College - All testament to our deep family affiliation for all things nautical.
Now the younger generation are getting involved with sailing lessons. Even Darcy our Cockerpoo enjoys a splash in the waves and a run around on one of the nearby sandy beaches.
