“Excellent all round”
We only stayed for the weekend, but the cottage was clean, cosy and very well equipped. We arrived in the dark, and in the morning, we were amazed at the breath taking views, even the teenagers were impressed. For those of you attached to your mobiles, you may find little or no signal, but there was a data dongle and laptop for 10 hours internet. Living area with kitchen is compact, but the conservatory and bedrooms are fine. We had a great meal at The Wheelwright too. Would go again.

About the location
SOUTHLEIGH
Beer is a small picturesque fishing village on the south Devon coast between Seaton and Branscombe. The shingle beach is very sheltered, backed by limestone cliffs and was once fertile smuggling territory, plus contraband was hidden in nearby caves, which are now a popular tourist attraction. Beer is situated on the stretch of Devon coastline, known as the Jurassic Coast, a designated World Heritage Site, and the village offers sloping streets lined with picturesque stone houses and cottages built on many different levels of the steep valley sides. There are a good range of shops, friendly cafes, restaurants and pubs in Beer, plus just outside the village is the popular Pecorama Gardens, which are perched on the hill overlooking Lyme Bay. Pecorama boasts the Beer Heights Light Railway and indoor model railway exhibition, along with a children's' play area. Beer is a unique Devon fishing village and a great place to stay.
