You can walk the footpath to Branscombe and Sidmouth in one direction and Lyme Regis and Seaton in the other, or enjoy fishing and searching for fossils along the Jurassic Coast.

The beautiful Regency resort of Sidmouth is only 10 minutes away and boasts a theatre, a cinema and hosts the annual famous Sidmouth Folk Festival in August.

Our 4-night stay at the Sail Loft was absolutely wonderful. Situated less than 5 minutes from the beach and a similar time to pubs and restuarants. The cottage is without doubt, the best equipped place we have ever rented. Very comfortable and furnished with good quality fittings. The bed was also very comfortable too. Excellent communications with the owner as well. We'll certainly be back and can highly recommend a stay.

The Sail Loft was well appointed with all the necessary equipment. We did have a problem with the fridge in that the door sometimes wouldn't close properly.The balcony was a bonus as a lovely sunny spot in the afternoons.All in all we found it a pleasant place to stay for our week in Beer.
