About this property
Ideal for families, quiet spot, 4 min walk to beach, village, pubs, restaurants.
Beachcomber Cottage, built around 1900, nestles on a private gated terrace in a quiet, sunny spot with great views of the village. It's just 4 minutes stroll to the beach and 2 minutes from the main street with its good range of local shops, pubs and eateries. It is near to the South West Coastal Footpath and lies on the World Heritage Jurrasic Coastline. The beach is delightful with a range of cafes and deckchairs, rockpools, beach huts and fishing trips. It has fast Wi Fi to keep you connected. Suitable for friends and families getting together.
The cottage sleeps 6, is well equipped, centrally heated and has a lovely sunny garden. It is well located to explore the myriad of local attractions. It has an entrance porch - great for storing beach equipment. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Downstairs is a kitchen/dining area with convection oven great for baking bread, lavatory and spacious refurbished living area with comfy sofas, large SMART TV and panoramic village views. The private gated garden has patio with table, chairs and catches the sun right into the evening, just 10 yards along the terrace. A perfect spot to sip a glass of wine as the sun sets.

About the host
Hosted by Jan Watkins
Beachcomber Cotttage is also our second home and my family visits regulary during the year. this helps us ensure standards for guests are kept up.
Why they chose this property
Beer is a beautiful village with a smuggling history, a little stream runs down each side of the main street to the sea, It is filled with flowers i the summer and is an award winning village. The beach is horseshoe shaped and is well kept and the fishing boats leave in the morning and return and sell their catch from the beach shop. The cottage is well placed for visits to The Donkey Sanctuary, River Cottage, Lyme Regis and Exeter. Pecorama is perfect for and afternoon visit.
What makes this property unique
The location is great! near to beach, Jurassic coastline walks, shops and eateries.
As the terrace is private and gated at each end it is quiet and very safe for children and pets.
