Property code: OC-JBETCO

Spread over three stories, this large property sits in a tranquil area of the South Devon coast with plenty of space for friends and family to gather. What’s more, with more than an acre of land to explore, a walled orchard and both a south and west-facing garden, you can make the most of the great outdoors right outside your front door! Situated less than half a mile from Branscombe Beach, you can make the most of your close proximity to the beach with wild walks along the shore.

The living room is a social hub, with three comfortable sofas and an armchair ensuring a place for everyone to sit and watch a film, or play board games on the coffee table by the warmth of the wood burner. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow the light to flood in, and the selection of antique furniture adds to the character creating a place that feels like home from the moment you step inside. When it’s time to get cooking, the traditionally styled kitchen is fitted with all you’ll need, as well as a small dining table for four. Catering for an array of occasions, the property has both a dining room seating 12 and a breakfast room seating eight for convenience. Come rain or shine, the conservatory is a lovely place to relax, be it with tea and cake to soak up the scenery or with a good book in hand. Upstairs across the two floors, you’ll find all six uniquely decorated bedrooms, starting with the Blue Room which is furnished with a double bed and boasts an en-suite bathroom. Also on the first floor is a quirky family bathroom with a shower and two further double bedrooms. The third floor is home to the final three double bedrooms as well as a bathroom. Surrounding the property is a south-facing garden, a west-facing garden and a croquet lawn. With areas surrounded by mature plans, tables and chairs seating 12 guests and a BBQ, the outside area has plenty to keep guests of all ages entertained.

Just 2 miles away is the picturesque village of Beer on the Jurassic Coast. Here you can spend a day on the beach backed by limestone cliffs, visit the model railway at Pecorama which is a great place for kids, or simply sit and soak up the scenery with a picnic of local produce for a great day out. For those who love a spot of history, venture to Lyme Regis (11 miles) to hunt for fossils and visit the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum to learn about the prehistoric beasts that once roamed the land.

We loved our stay at Eastcotte. The house is beautifully decorated and unique, with breathtaking views of the sea; a perfect place to stay with a large group of friends. All rooms are very comfortable and the house was very warm, even in February. There is a washing and drying room, two fridges, a table tennis table in the basement, and the little Read morebed in the master bedroom is large enough for an adult. The grounds of the house are also extensive, with lots of outdoor space which feels private. We plan to return! Hide

The location and the house itself are spectacularly beautiful, and the furnishings and artwork are wonderfully idiosyncratic. An excellent selection of cookware!

Were here to celebrate a birthday and have done so very well in this lovely situation. Before reading the history of Eastcotte, weve been commenting on the feel of the house how it feels like a family home and what a pleasure that is. Thank you for letting us share this special place.
