Why Staycation? Dimmet Devon makes the perfect UK Staycation.

‘staycation’ noun informal ‘a holiday spent in one’s home country rather than abroad, or one spent at home and involving day trips to local attractions’ We have a little secret, and it might make you think about staycationing for the summer, or half term, or any holiday time! Our little secret is called Dimmet…. Dimmet is in Devon and it’s the perfect staycation for couples or family. And the best bit of complete quirkiness? Think 70s style, think seaside.

Dimmet is all about beach holidays and relaxation. Dimmet is a unique 1970s style holiday home is close to the large village of Braunton (recently voted in the top 40 British beaches) and the award-winning beaches at Saunton Sands, Croyde and Woolacombe. It is staycation paradise!

Dimmet had a total 70s style refurbishment and combines the best of the old with the best of the new. Nearly all of the interior accessories are either vintage or local and what makes this staycation extra special is the time travel element with its 70s experience for you – from vintage wallpaper to crockery and furniture, the vibe is all about bringing back on of the most loved, iconic decades. Pineapple on sticks, Kiln Craft crockery, and flares are all obligatory at Dimmet!

Dimmet is the Devon word for the half-light at the end of the day, and it’s our favourite time to be down at Saunton Sands beach, with a BBQ going and the evening rolling in…staycations never felt better!

Guests can enjoy all the facilities and areas available to them. There is a beach kit is in the garage, as is the BBQ and garden equipment, all of which guests are welcome to use.

Staycations are stress-free holidays for everyone and Dimmet adds that extra dimension of 70s fun.
