Nice to haves

This sweet home is all about the views. It's blessed with unbelievable panoramas across the sea from the south-facing garden and the huge bay window in the living area, so no matter the season, you'll always be able to watch the waves. 

Based in the fishing harbour of Seaton, the home is set back a couple of roads away from the sandy seafront and esplanade. The town boasts mouthwatering traditional eateries (fish and chips on the beach are obligatory), a retro games arcade, cafes, and antique shops with the most incredible finds. 

Once you've fully explored Seaton, make the 1.5-mile trip to the picture-perfect town of Beer or drive a little over an hour to the wilds of Exmoor National Park – famous for its spectacular landscapes and picturesque walks. You won't soon forget the woodlands, coasts and rivers that make up this naturally beautiful part of the world. 

After long days spent eating local produce and exploring spectacular South Devon, recharge at home in front of the TV with a drink in hand, ready to do it all again tomorrow.

This exquisitely renovated bakehouse provides a sweet escape amidst the glorious rolling hills and wooded valleys of East Devon. It sits in the lovely village of Musbury, within walking distance of the local shop and pub and just a twelve-minute drive from Lyme Regis and its spectacular Jurassic coastline. 

The interior strikes the perfect balance between contemporary comfort and authentic charm. Look closely, and you'll spot ample inklings of this home's storied past, from the beam-clad ceilings to the Juliet balcony, where flour bags were once hauled from the loft below. On the first floor, the open-plan living area is blessed by heaps of natural light, offering a free-flowing canvas of calm with lofty vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors and partially exposed stone walls. Plush sofas huddle around the wood-burning fireplace – a lovely space for chilly evenings – while the fully-equipped kitchen and diner offer direct access to the garden. Enclosed for privacy and boasting a lush lawn, the outdoor space beckons you to unwind in the fresh air. Let the dog roam free here and, after long walks through the countryside, fire up the barbecue and gather on the pretty terrace for a delicious alfresco feast.

The Old Bakery

Paid Parking

This stone cottage in the charming village of Beer is a gorgeous place to spend a holiday with your nearest and dearest. With space for up to eight guests, plus a furry friend, it's a marvellous place to kick back and relax between your adventures. 

The host has taken care to retain many of the period features in the house – you'll love the exposed stonework and wooden ceiling beams throughout. On chilly evenings, you can throw a log on the fire and curl up to watch your favourite movies over a glass of wine. The kitchen is well-equipped, so you can whip up some hearty dishes when hunger strikes. And, on balmy afternoons, you'll love making the most of the large landscaped garden and patio, complete with an alfresco dining area. 

Beer Beach is just a short stroll away, and there are plenty of other hidden coves dotted along the coastline for you to explore. Walkers can lace up their boots and join the epic South West Coastal Path to soak up the amazing scenery. Golfers can take a short drive over to tee off on the local course, and if you're feeling particularly adventurous you can book a tour of the fascinating Beer Quarry Caves.

Beautifully reflecting its fishing village location, this home is awash with nautical touches. Classic and clean neutrals maintain a bright and airy feel, but the hint of blue from the furniture piping to the decorative scatter cushions, brings natural elegance to the interior. The living and dining area is open and spacious, ensuring you have ample room for a morning breakfast with family and friends. In the summer months, you may venture through the glass door, leading to a picturesque balcony overlooking the rooftops of the quaint seaside homes. Situated close to the beach, you’ll lose yourself in the local galleries, shops and cafes en route to the charming beach huts. 

When you are ready to pop your feet up after a busy day, you may do so after reading the children a nighttime story nestled in their sweet bunk beds. It will be time to pour a large wine and sink into your deep bathtub before sliding yourself under your Egyptian cotton sheets – one of many luxurious touches to be enjoyed. Don’t worry, it won't be too much of an early start the next day – there’s plenty to keep your guests occupied (little ones and adults included), so you can grab an extra few minutes enjoying the view with a cuppa in bed. This charming apartment can accommodate up to six guests, so whether you’re opting for a quiet family retreat or a spot to enjoy the local pubs with friends, this home is ideal for a year-round getaway. 

When the Admiral Docks

Live as to the manor born at this grand Victorian house, built in the 1890s and owned by three generations of the same family. Accessed off a private drive, the house stands on a hill overlooking the glorious Devon countryside, surrounded by more than an acre of mature landscaped gardens. Imagine playing croquet or five-a-side football on the lawn and pondering on the bench beside the pond. And that's just the grounds. Inside, this grand home retains most of its original features, so there's a lot to explore. Fireplaces, parquet floors, high ceilings and bay windows are all here, along with a sweeping staircase and a fabulous collection of antiques. Cooks will adore the large kitchen and scullery, made cosy by the purr of the AGA, while there's a choice of reception rooms so everyone has room to spread out. Take scenic walks along the River Coly and visit nearby attractions like the beaches of Seaton and Beer, historic Lyme Regis and the market town of Axminster, famous for Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River Cafe.

Victorian Beauty

Pet Basket

Pet Bowls

We think that this charming cottage looks like something out of a fairytale. Nestled on a quiet lane in the pretty village of Branscombe, it's a dreamy place to spend a few days alone or with your favorite person. 

You'll fall in love as soon as you arrive and gaze up at the thatched roof and painted stone walls. The interior is cosy and welcoming, with fabulous views of the rolling countryside from the windows. During the colder months, you can throw a log on the fire and get cosy on the sofa with a glass of wine and a good book. And, when the sun is shining, head out to the patio to enjoy your supper alfresco as you breathe in the fresh, clean air. 

From here, you can amble down to Branscombe Beach, or take the car to arrive on the sandy shoreline in no time at all. There are plenty of other coves to discover, including the famous Beer Beach and Sidmouth Beach. And, keen walkers will be in heaven, as the South West Coastal Path is close by, ready to lead you through these stunning landscapes.  

English Hedgerows

Smart TV

Overlooking the Marine Parade, this apartment is a great option if you’re looking to experience the vibrant heart of Lyme Regis. It’s worth noting it’s possible to hear street noise from the neighbouring bar, but you will have incredible sea views from the cosy living room. A car parking permit can be supplied on request. Plus, you’ll find everything you could need within easy reach. Stroll to the beach or adventure further along the Jurassic Coast towards Sidmouth and Axminster. 

The Way by the Sea

Perched on the seafront in Lyme Regis, this second-floor apartment offers postcard-worthy panoramas that won't disappoint. Sit back, relax, and watch the tide roll in from the leather armchairs – thanks to the large windows, the scenery is always front and centre. Even better is the small balcony, the perfect spot for a glass of wine as the sun goes down. The apartment is a great size for two, though a third guest could be accommodated on a sofa bed with prior notice. And the location? You can't beat it. A steep passageway leads directly to the beach, putting the saltwater and single shore right on your doorstep.

Seaside Reflections

On the dramatically named Jurassic Coast, you’ll find the towns and beaches are less about dinosaurs and more about fascinating geology. However, as this home in the town of Beer is just ten miles from the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum in Lyme Regis, you could incorporate a touch of these ancient giants into your stay. Otherwise, you’ll be enjoying local beaches, antique stores, and craft galleries – and true to its name, Beer also has a selection of cosy pubs.

While we’re on the topic of the high street, it’s only fitting that your apartment is housed in a former shop. The cute exterior still has the large bay windows where stock would have once been displayed, but nowadays it’s a space for relaxation rather than retail. 

We love the way the front door opens right into the living space, making you feel welcome right away. A colourful Persian rug and a squishy leather sofa, laden with pillows, both set the tone for a comfortable break. Pour yourself a glass of pinot noir and take a seat by the windows – you’ve got fantastic views of St Michael’s Church across the road. Elegant, airy, and sophisticated, you’ll love being the shopkeeper of this apartment.

Retail Therapy

We love this home’s wonderful terrace overlooking the town and Lyme Bay – it’s the perfect place to relax with family and friends. Inside, there’s plenty of room for entertaining and all of the bedrooms are en-suite. There's also an open fire for when the Dorset weather turns chilly. The location is excellent too – this home is in the centre of Lyme Regis, close to pubs, restaurants, cafes, and shops. Take a stroll along the Cobb overlooking the harbour – it’s within walking distance or spend the day on the golden sands of the town’s beach.

The Edwardian

Courtyard

Built in the 1830s, this cottage is full of the charm you’d expect – just watch your head on those sloping ceilings and beautiful old beams on the top floor. There’s plenty of space for six guests here with the added bonus of en-suites to each bedroom. Some of the bathrooms are on the small side, but they still offer private space and everything needed to get ready for the day. Fancy some fresh sea air? Beer beach is just a short walk away.

The Golden Tide

Well, the sea and beach views from this apartment’s private balcony are stunning. You can enjoy the vistas from this home’s large windows in the living room, too. The bedroom is compact, and there’s not much storage here, but there is a wardrobe in the utility. Also, the kitchen is on the small side – that said, it has everything you need and there’s an array of eateries a short stroll away. And, of course, the beach is footsteps away. This place is the perfect base for exploring all that Dorset has to offer.

Shell Cottage

Set on the popular Marine Parade in Lyme Regis, this home is an ideal base for a small family or group of friends. You’ll need to take care with the steps and uneven ground here, and because of the desirable location, you may hear a little noise during your stay. But, we think you’ll be too busy soaking up the fresh sea air to notice. The key thing that caught our eye here is the secret passageway to the beach – so stroll down to the sea, after which, a plethora of beachfront eateries await ready to serve up an authentic coastal dinner. 

Fossil Finder

Parking On Premises

An idyllic coastal retreat awaits at this blue cottage in Lyme Regis. The beach is just a twenty-minute walk away, and the rest of the Jurassic Coast is easily accessible by car. We love the bright and cosy living space back home. It's the ideal remedy after a day in the fresh air – and the glimpse of the sea from the kitchen window is a nice touch. The cherry on top is the enclosed garden, where you and your four-legged friends can enjoy dinner and drinks as the sun goes down.

The Fossil Hunter

Follow in the footsteps of nineteenth-century fossil hunter Mary Anning with this glorious coastal apartment overlooking Lyme Regis and the Jurassic Coast.
 
 Spend your days scouring the cliffs for prehistoric treasures, browsing Lyme's tempting gift shops and eateries or strolling the world-famous Cobb Harbour – all within a few minutes' walk of the apartment. Enjoy a sunny barbecue on your private roof terrace or rustle up something tasty in the well-equipped kitchen, then settle back to enjoy spectacular sea views. If the Dorset weather isn't so kind to you, a squashy sofa (and smart TV) awaits in the open-plan living space. Oh, and look out for the host's thoughtfully curated artwork featuring the local area.
 
 Spend time getting to know the quirky charms of Lyme Regis or take a road trip and explore further along the West Dorset and East Devon coastline before returning to your welcoming home-from-home. A rare find indeed!

After spending your time gazing at geological phenomena and prehistoric intrigues of the Jurassic Coast, Lyme Regis makes for a wonderful base to return back to the 21st century. This charming town has bustling high streets, independent boutiques, cafés, and a microbrewery where you can sample local English ales. But it’s not a complete escape from nature either – just a minute walk from this quaint cottage, you’ll also find the sandy shores of Lyme Regis beach.

Full of character inside and out, arriving here is exactly the English seaside abode you’d imagine. With cream walls alongside a bright blue front door and matching sash window frames, a nautical theme immediately springs to mind.

Inside this traditional building, the fresh, modern decor makes you feel immediately relaxed. We love the earthy palette of peach, cream, dark brown wooden floors, and a moss-coloured sofa. Wicker pieces and textures bring a sandy look, offering another reminder of your coastal setting. Further nods to the nautical theme are found throughout the cosy cottage, with anchors, captain’s wheels, and a glossy shoal of decorative fish bringing the seaside to life. Anyone for some fish and chips?

Nautilidae

Perfect for a couple’s seaside retreat, you’ll find this first-floor pad in the heart of Lyme Regis. And while it is tailor-made for two, the home can accommodate up to four people – just bear in mind, at full occupancy two guests will draw the short straw and sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. Still, it’s a small price to pay for this apartment’s enviable location. With museums, shops, delightful eateries and the beach on your doorstep, there’s something for everyone here. 

Seaside Tranquillity

Parking On Street

Perfect for a romantic break, this charming cottage is nestled in the idyllic village of Uplyme, close to Lyme Regis. It’s a rural setting close to the coast, so you can look forward to long walks, beach trips, and visiting traditional pubs. The period cottage dates back to the 19th century, blending historic features with modern conveniences. In addition to an open-plan living and dining space, you’ll have a patio area with a deck – it’s a great spot for an alfresco meal or cream tea on sunny afternoons. 

Lyme Cottage

Tucked just moments from the sea in the heart of Lyme Regis, this beautifully renovated apartment is made for slow coastal living. Inside, calming tones and contemporary touches create a relaxed space to recharge after a day on the beach. Wake to the promise of fresh pastries and riverside strolls, explore the Jurassic Coast by foot or boat, then return to cook in the sleek kitchen or enjoy seafood at a harbourside restaurant. With two stylish bedrooms, a spa-like bathroom and space for your dog too, it’s a little slice of the coast you’ll want to come back to.

Golden Cap

Only 50 yards from the seafront, beach, and eateries, this cottage is well-placed to discover all Lyme Regis has to offer. You're in the heart of the action here – you can wake up in the morning and be sunbathing on the beach in less than ten minutes. The cottage dates back to the 1600s, so expect lots of character inside – we're talking wooden beams, exposed stonework, and a toasty log burner in the dining room to make your dinners feel extra cosy. There's also a quaint gravel garden – it's not the biggest, but it works well for sundowners on summer evenings.

The Cobbler

Wake up to the sound of the waves every morning with a stay in this seaside retreat. You can also enjoy impressive views across Cobb Harbour and the beach from the private roof terrace. Inside, the rooms have been lovingly restored while retaining a wonderful sense of heritage and character. It’s worth noting the stairs are steep and the two pull-out beds in the living room are best suited to children, but this is a wonderful option for families. Plus, it’s just a short stroll into the heart of Lyme Regis. 


Beautiful Skies

Lyme Regis sits on Dorset's Jurassic Coast, where you can stroll from a bustling high street of tea rooms, boutiques, and chip shops, to scenes like a fossilised beach known as Ammonite Pavement. At this intersection where prehistoric and modern times merge into a unique town, your Grade II listed home sits somewhere in the middle – just a five-minute stroll from the fresh waters of Lyme Regis Beach.

Tucked away in the centre, this fully renovated loft immediately feels like somewhere you can relax. We love the original, Georgian features such as the stone wall, lovingly restored to its former glory – but also now functioning as a drinks hatch from the kitchen. Anyone for a top-up of English sparkling wine? While you’re in here, pop the local station on the retro-style radio while you prepare a picnic to take to the beach later in the afternoon.

But before you head off, check out the upstairs. With warming colour palettes and soft furnishings throughout, comfort is easily achieved. This is especially true of the cosy bedrooms, where dusty pinks, upcycled furniture, and floral prints create a real homely atmosphere. Take in the cleansing, sea air from the windows – you’re certainly going to sleep well tonight.

Set in a row of Georgian houses on Sidmouth’s endless esplanade, there’s no better place to soak up the seaside than from this pretty apartment. Enormous sash windows reveal a balcony, ideally set up with a dining table for elevenses in the golden sunshine. Pour a glass of your favourite tipple to the sound of waves lapping the shore and caws of seagulls swooping overhead. Later on, when you’re ready for your lunch, fire up the barbecue on the terrace and prepare the catch of the day in the impressive kitchen. You’ll notice the interiors are tastefully decorated, with classic furnishings and quality linens to ensure unbridled comfort. After relaxing with a cup of tea on the plump sofas, put on your sun hat and mosey down to Sidmouth Town Beach. Roll up your trousers, pick your way across the pebbles and paddle in the brisk waters. If you’d like to expend a little more energy, embark on an eight-mile clifftop walk along the Jurassic Coast to the pretty village of Beer – country pubs with real ale and slap-up grub await.

Low Tide

With beautiful views of the Dorset coast, this four-story beachfront property is a real gem. Enjoy the sea vistas from the private terrace and from inside this home too. The fully-equipped kitchen and dining area are ideal for entertaining family and friends. When you want to explore the beach, it’s just steps away from this home. You’ll also find plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops on your doorstep. Further afield, explore the Jurassic Coast at Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre, or go for a hike at Stonebarrow Hill.

The Golden Stars

Tucked away on a pedestrian lane dating back to the Saxon times, this cottage is as charming as it looks. The back patio is a sweet spot for sundowners, even if it's a tad overlooked. There's also a cosy living area, a well-appointed kitchen, and two bedrooms – just note that the second is snug and best for little ones. Location-wise, you couldn't ask for better. Lyme Regis' town centre is a short walk away, where you'll find a bevvy of pubs, shops, and restaurants. The beach is less than a ten-minute stroll away, too – perfect for families and four-legged friends.

Wisteria Waves

Stepping inside this garden apartment feels like discovering a hidden gem. Located in the centre of Lyme Regis and just a two-minute walk from the beach, you’ll find a home that sits in perfect harmony with its environment. 

From the pastel-coloured tones to the simple styling, it’s the kind of space that ushers you in with a warm welcome – creating an instant sense of relaxation. So whether you’re here for a Jurassic Coast adventure or for a restorative retreat by the sea, this home makes it easy to enjoy it all in style. 

Follow the light through the living room and you’ll discover your own secluded garden. Featuring a wood-fired hot tub, this is an idyllic spot to soak up the magic of outdoor living. And when you’re refreshed and ready to explore, days can be spent embracing the waves on the seafront, hiking along the cliffs, sitting in cosy cafes and simply enjoying the spectacular scenery. 

Lavender Sea 

The Jurassic Coast is nearly on your doorstep at this cosy cottage in Charmouth. A great option for families, the open-plan living area has relaxation written all over it. It's a traditional townhome spread across three storeys, so expect steep stairs – especially the set leading up to the top-floor twin bedroom. The fireplace is ideal for chilly evenings, while the private garden is perfect for sundowners at dusk. Keen to dip your toes in the sea? Charmouth Beach is a ten-minute walk away. Or jump in the car and explore all Dorset has to offer.

Collecting Curios

Games Room

Ping Pong Table

Peak cottage appeal awaits at this thatched home set within the rolling Devon countryside. While the wonky lime-washed walls, narrow staircase, and rustic kitchen built into the former stables are impressive, it’s not overly accessible or toddler friendly. But we think it only adds to the charm. Outside, the grounds are vast, with an enclosed garden and orchard, an alfresco dining deck, and the use of a paddock. There’s also the adjoining shared barn with table tennis if the weather plays up. Location-wise, you’re just a twenty-minute drive to the seaside town of Lyme Regis, and the foodie haven, River Cottage, is even closer.

Devon Rose

Rooftop Terrace

With wonderful views over Lyme Bay from its south-facing terrace, this apartment has a great seaside setting. There’s a barbecue here too for sunny alfresco lunches. Inside, there’s a vibrant open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area equipped with everything you need to feel at home. Location-wise, you’ll find museums such as the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum a short stroll away. Church Cliff Beach is also within easy walking distance. This place is a brilliant base for exploring the area, whether you're planning a family holiday, a trip with friends, or a business stay.

 Jurassic Coast Vistas

Calling all history buffs. This Grade II-listed apartment was the former headquarters of Captain Briggs, the leader of the D-Day landings at Omaha Beach. It's on the first floor – and the building itself is perched on a steep hill – so though you'll need to climb a few stairs, you'll be treated to postcard-worthy sea views. We love the cosy feel of the living space, especially the characterful window seats. And the location? It’s ideal for exploring. Lyme Regis Front Beach is a fifteen-minute stroll away, and the town's shops and eateries are nearby, too.

Briggs & Company

Sitting on the edge of the East Devon Area of Oustanding Natural Beauty, the quaint town of Sidmouth is one of the county's most picturesque spots for a seaside getaway, in part down to cottages such as this one.

The recently renovated home is as cute as a button from the outside and the interior doesn't disappoint, either. The stark white walls and wooden floors are a classic combo and make for a blank canvas against which the blue furnishings and house plants can pop off. The sleek surfaces in the kitchen borrow from minimalist trends and there's a pleasing amount of space for whipping up hearty feasts.

In the local area, Sidmouth Beach takes about ten minutes to reach on foot and sits on the South West Coast Path in case you fancy a longer ramble in either direction. Elsewhere in the town, you'll find seafront cafes and restaurants, as well as a pair of museums and a theatre.


Folk Song

Stradling the border between Devon and Dorset on over five acres of woodland, this stately and delightfully quirky home can thank the secluded location for the beautiful countryside views. Between the untamed garden and on-site meadows, you'll find a tiered deck with a sauna, hot tub and ample seating. Even further along is a natural pool for warmer days. If you'd prefer a day at the beach, Lyme Regis lies only a few minutes away. And exploring the Jurassic Coast is a must, Durdle Door especially – it's a little over an hour but well worth the trip.

The Road to the Meadow

If you’re looking for a home with history, this Regency villa, nestled in the heart of Sidmouth, could be for you. With two living areas and a large entertainment room, complete with books, board games, and a TV, it’s perfect for a group or two families – you can enjoy time together with the option of space to yourselves if you want it. Location-wise, you’re a stone’s throw from Sidmouth Beach – you can see the sea from the small balcony and living room – with an array of cafes, shops, and pubs nearby.

Regal Regency

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

Perfect for a family keen to explore the Jurassic Coast, this mews home will tick a lot of your holiday boxes. Making the most of the sea views, you’ll find the living areas on the first floor here, opening up onto a spacious decked area that’s just the spot for an evening aperitif as you drink in the vistas. If the sight has you eager to explore, you’re spoilt for choice with beaches in the area. Spend your days enjoying watersports or fossil hunting – there’s something for all the family here.

This recently remodelled home on the Devon/Dorset border is perfect for a countryside retreat. Positioned on the edge of a historic, seventeenth-century farm, just a short way from Lambert’s Castle and five miles from Lyme Regis and Charmouth on the Jurassic coast, the area promises exciting day trips and outstanding natural beauty. Whether you’re after rural rambles or swimming in the sea, there's something to pique your interest. Inside, underfloor heating means you'll be toasty warm no matter the weather, while floor-to-ceiling windows ensure guests enjoy a splendid view from every corner of the home. Food is important to your chef host, so despite the compact size of the kitchen it contains everything you could need. We'd definitely recommend sampling charcuterie made from his rare breed pigs and you'll be supplied with farm fresh eggs on arrival. The comfortable bed is perfectly positioned to catch a glimpse of the stars through remote-controlled skylight

Meadow View

EV Charger

This charming cottage comes with a setting as picturesque and comforting as its interiors. It sits in the centre of the beautiful village of Stockland and benefits from having a fully enclosed southwest-facing courtyard with views of the village church and countryside beyond. You can soak up the sunshine (and a glass of bubbles) with your loved one and experience a moment of pure bliss. While staying at home by the crackling fire and with good company is always great idea, we encourage you to go out and enjoy a country walk right from your doorstep, or plan a day of seaside fun and fossil hunting on the Jurassic Coast. Best of all, you'll come back home to a sumptuous bathroom with underfloor heating and a generous bathtub or a walk-in rainfall shower to pick from, and a luxurious super king-size bed where you'll sleep like royalty. Drenched in history and charm, Where The Ways Part makes for a romantic bolthole in the unspoilt rural landscape of the Blackdown Hills. 

Where The Ways Part

Rice Maker

Desk

Some holidays are all about cramming in as many activities as you can manage, and rushing around in a crowd. Not here. This delightful holiday home can be found on the edge of a farm that’s been here since the 17th century. Staying here gives you the chance to live slowly, and to relax and unwind. 

The cabin is warm and welcoming, adorned with flowers from the farm, and boasting enough windows to flood the space with light. You’ll wake up each morning in the huge bed feeling rested, having enjoyed the kind of deep sleep you only get in the countryside. After a breakfast of fresh eggs, you’ll be ready to explore the area – and there’s plenty to explore. 

Charmouth Beach is ten minutes away by car and is the perfect place for a paddle. Hunt for fossils and skim stones, marvelling that this little haven is in the UK. The farm is only five miles inland from the sea, tucked away in between Dorset and Devon’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty – keen walkers will be in heaven. 

After a long day of hiking and paddling, it’s a real treat to watch the sun begin to set over the cow meadow. Pour a glass of wine and admire the views that stretch all the way to Somerset. Later on, sitting around the fire pit, you’ll spot bats swooping through the trees above you. House martins and swallows nest around the farm, too, and you may also spot foxes, hedgehogs, badgers and roe deer. Rare orchids and meadow flowers bloom in the pastures surrounding the home, adding a sweet aroma to the country air. 

This is a perfect sanctuary for two – you’ll never want to leave. 


Over The Pastures

Children's Dinnerware

Effortlessly blending contemporary with traditional, this Grade II listed cottage in the village of Burton Bradstock is perfect for a tranquil stay. We love the exposed beams and cosy fireplace and the enclosed garden is a bonus – ideal for those with a four-legged friend in tow. With a couple of pubs in the village, dining out is always on the menu, or you can take a short walk across the fields to Hive beach. After a stroll on the sand, the cafe is just the spot for a little sustenance. 

Sunlight Cottage

Ideally placed for exploring the Jurassic Coast, you’ll find this contemporary home in the seaside town of Lyme Regis. Perfect for a family or group of friends, the nearest beach is just over a mile away, so whether it’s days splashing in the sea you’re seeking, or bracing hikes along the South West Coast Path, this home delivers. Fossil-hunting is a must, as is a stroll along the iconic Cobb causeway – and of course, in Lyme Regis you’ll find an abundance of coastal-inspired eateries to refuel after a busy day.
