Welcome to Gatelodge, a spacious and welcoming family home located on Old Bystock Drive in Exmouth. Just a short drive from Exmouth Beach and the beautiful Jurassic Coast, this is the perfect base for a relaxed seaside escape.
Sleeping up to 5–6 guests across four bedrooms, Gatelodge offers generous living space, cosy interiors and a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow ideal for family holidays, coastal breaks or longer stays in East Devon.
The Space
Gatelodge is designed for comfortable, easy living. The home is light, spacious and thoughtfully laid out, offering multiple areas to relax, dine and unwind — something guests particularly value when travelling as a family.
Bedrooms & Sleeping Arrangements
The property sleeps up to six guests across four bedrooms.
There are two comfortable double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a fourth smaller single room that is best suited to one small child due to its compact size. The layout works particularly well for families, giving everyone their own space while still feeling connected.
Living Areas
The main living room is cosy and inviting, with two large sofas and a wood burner creating a warm, relaxed atmosphere — perfect for slower evenings after beach days or coastal walks.
The kitchen and dining area flows into a second living space featuring a large corner sofa and another wood burner, making it a wonderful social heart of the home. Large bi-fold doors open fully onto the garden, allowing you to truly embrace al fresco dining and indoor-outdoor living during warmer months. It’s an ideal space for summer evenings, morning coffees in the fresh air, or relaxed family meals with the doors open.
In addition, there is a separate dining room with seating for six guests — perfect for family dinners, celebrations or gathering everyone together comfortably around the table.
With multiple living areas, the house offers flexibility whether you’re travelling with children, extended family or friends.
Kitchen
The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering stays, whether you`re preparing a quick breakfast before heading to the beach or cooking a relaxed evening meal. There is ample workspace and everything you need for a comfortable home-from-home experience.
Bathrooms
The property includes a family bathroom with fresh towels provided. Clean, practical and well suited to family use, it offers everything you need for a comfortable stay.
Outdoor Space
The garden becomes a natural extension of the home thanks to the bi-fold doors. On sunny days, it transforms the living space into a light-filled, open environment that’s perfect for enjoying Devon’s coastal air.
