Sustainability and eco-friendliness are at the forefront of The Albatross's spirit. Many of the furnishings have been refurbished and reclaimed, while vintage items such as curtains, velvet sofas, leather sofas, and abundant plant life all compliment an environmentally focused ethos in this four-bedroom apartment. The garden terrace is the perfect spot to dine al fresco with your loved ones, while evenings can be spent in front of the film projector or sampling cocktails across the road at The Bull Inn. Should you wish to venture further, then The Albatross is ideally positioned in beautiful South Devon, just a short drive from Dartmoor National Park. Sleeping up to eight guests across four bedrooms, the vintage getaway is the ideal spot for groups of friends and family seeking an escape from city life.
The contemporary kitchen comes with all the mod cons necessary for cooking up a storm, and the adjacent circular dining table comfortably seats eight guests. Step out through the patio doors and onto the outdoor terrace where you can relax among the greenery as you enjoy a morning coffee or dine al fresco with your loved ones on the outdoor furniture.
The living room is a large space, containing a charming mixture of second-hand sofas, different fabrics, and antique armchairs. Here, you can enjoy a movie night via the pull-down projector or have a board games tournament. Or maybe you would prefer a good book, of which there are plenty. Beyond an original Victorian staircase are the four bedrooms. Each has their own distinct identity, with natural plaster ceilings and calming pastel colours working to create a soothing and tranquil air. There are two king size and two super king size rooms, all of which can be used as twins. There is also additional space for cots. The rooms benefit from views of Rotherfold Square and several courtyard gardens below. There is also a shower room with a rainfall shower and a family bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower, toilet, and large corner bath.
The Albatross is both run by and sits opposite The Bull Inn, an organic, ethical inn in the heart of Totnes, Devon. We would highly recommend popping by in the evening to enjoy some high quality, organic dishes, all cooked from scratch and ethically sourced from local, conscientious suppliers. It's also a great spot for an evening tipple. The bohemian market town of Totnes is well worth exploring too. There is a twice-weekly market featuring all sorts of knick-knacks, curios, and antique items. There are also several locally owned boutique shops worth a visit, plenty of pubs, and even the remains of a well-preserved Norman motte and bailey castle. The area is also home to several nearby beaches including South Milton Sands, East Portlemouth, and Blackpool Sands. Just a short drive to the north is Dartmoor. This national park is an upland area, perfect for hikes, cycling, or a spot of birdwatching.
