A good family home in a very good location with local amentities a short walk away. Many walks from the property and ideally located for all attractions of East Devon and Wesr Dorset. Lyme Regis was the highlight of all the lovely places we visited.

Lovely and comfortable house for our family get together for a 70th birthday celebration. One of the best equipped houses we have stayed in. Great location with good countryside views. Lots to do within a 20 minutes drive for all the family. We suspect we were the first booking of the season, so the hoovering and dusting was not up to scratch in sRead moreome places. Hide

The property is ideally located for exploring East Devon, with easy access to Seaton, Lyme Regis, Beer and beyond. The property is spacious and well equipped. However there are areas for improvement. The property could have been cleaner and the steeply sloping garden was not ideal for small children.

We love Valley View and have stayed there on many occasions. It is a real home from home, and, following the renovations a few years ago it is now even better. Potential clients should, however, bear in mind that it is not suitable for anyone of limited mobility owing to the number of steps from the car park in the drive and the fairly steep stairRead mores to reach the bedrooms.
