Whether its the relaxing rise and fall of the Camel Estuary or the exhilarating crash of waves against the rocks, you can make the most of the coast this autumn. We have picked our top 12 properties with a view of the water.
Get a double dose of vitamin 'sea' this autumn. The water is still warm (relatively!) so you can stand up on it, dive into it, or paddle through it and return home to take in the breathtaking views.
