We had a lovely week at Beech Cottage. You can see the sea from the kitchen and bedrooms! The cottage was modern, well equipped and comfortable. Our 2 kids loved the bunk beds. The ensuite shower was wonderful. The garden, carpeted in daffodils and primroses in April when we stayed, caught both the morning and evening sun. The cottage is in a quietRead more spot, yet the location is fantastic for days out as it is just a 10 min or so drive to Lyme Regis, Seaton (big Tesco) and Beer. Hide
