About this property
Fabulous river and coastal views. Seaton beach 5 min drive, Lyme Regis 10 mins.
This period semi-detached holiday cottage overlooks the beautiful Axe Valley and is just one mile from the popular holiday resort of Seaton, on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. It is located in the village of Colyford, which is a situated near the border of East Devon and West Dorset, just 7 miles from Sidmouth and 7 miles from Lyme Regis. The area is a quiet, peaceful location where you can get-away-from-it-all and relax amongst beautiful rolling countryside and lovely beaches. Colyford boasts a well stocked friendly village shop/PO/butcher, just a 5 minute walk, where you can go in for the morning papers and come out with a local pie for lunch and a bottle of wine for the evening. Buy some of the fantastic produce from the butcher for a barbecue in the garden or walk to of the 2 village pubs which both serve food. Bryher is a 5 minute walk to the Seaton Wetlands Centre where you can walk into Seaton and visit the Jurassic centre and ride the Seaton tram. There are plenty of attractions for young and not so young: Pecorama in Beer with its beautiful landscaping around their miniature steam railway is a must day out. Seaton has its own tram which you can see crossing the valley from the vantage point of the garden, you can even drive a tram if you book in advance. Bicton park, Escot and Killerton house all have something to offer and if you come in the autumn there will be a carnival in a Devon village somewhere to experience. Bryher is situated in a beautiful area where you can enjoy the local pleasures of walking the South West Coastal Path, fossil hunting at Lyme Regis, stopping for a fresh crab sandwich on Beer beach or a cream tea in Sidmouth after scouring the antique shops in Honiton for a bargain.

About the host
Hosted by Stephanie Sawer
We moved to East Devon 28 years ago and have raised our family here. It is a beautiful part of England as the climate is mild and the pace of life is slower. We bought and renovated Bryher 22 years ago and have had guests staying and enjoying the surroundings since then. Many of our guests are repeat visitors who enjoy the opportunity to relax and refresh in a comfortable house.
Why they chose this property
Bryher is situated in a beautiful part of the Jurassic Coast. It looks out over farmland with uninterrupted views along the river Axe to the sea at Seaton. A 5 minute walk will bring you to Seaton wetlands, an area for quiet contemplation and a haven for twitchers where you can ride the tram to Seaton or Colyton. It is easy to get to the seaside towns and 5 beaches in the immediate area and for more culture or shopping then Exeter is just a 40 minute drive.
What makes this property unique
Bryher is conveniently situated close to the sea at Seaton (1 mile away), yet its village location gives easy walking access to the 2 village pubs which offer food. The friendly, well stocked corner shop with deli, post office and butcher's shop supports local farmers offering tasty produce. Seaton also has a gym with daily membership and water sports from the local beaches in the summer months.
