The surrounding countryside is a wonderful mix of wooded combs, heathland and hilltops from which wonderful vistas can be enjoyed.
The Pecorama Gardens are well worth a visit; nestled on the hill overlooking Lyme Bay, they offer colourful gardens to explore, as well as the Beer Heights Light Railway. 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 fifth stay at The Sail Loft did not disappoint. One of the most comfortable, well equipped cottages we’ve stayed in. In addition the proximity to the beach makes this the ideal place to spend time in beautiful Beer. Would 100% recommend.

Lovely place to stay in a superb location. Very well equipped accommodation with many thoughtful touches. Only problem was a mechanical/whirring sound that went on intermittently through the night .. no idea where it came from but did disturb sleep a little. Otherwise really good accommodation thank you
