  • Cosy cottage with contemporary styling providing a lovely family bolthole
  • Perfectly situated in a seaside town location with easy access to the Jurassic Coast
  • A short 0.5-mile walk to Seaton’s esplanade and a mile-long sandy beach
Property code: OC-B27402

Offering timelessly charming, sumptuous interiors brimming with original characterful features that’ll transport you to centuries past, this vibrant cosy cottage is the perfect spot for couples and families to retire to after adventuring around the Jurassic Coast, uncovering the sandy beaches, charming towns and scenic footpaths this part of East Devon is famous for.

Exposed brickwork, a striking ornamental fireplace, periodic features and a rich, sumptuous colour palette in the lounge/diner create a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere that invites you to hunker down on the plush sofa with your four-legged friends at your feet and catch the latest blockbuster on the Smart TV. Answer the call of hungry tummies in the contemporary galley-style kitchen by rustling up a family feast with the delicious local produce you’ve collected. Climb the winding cottage staircase to find a beautifully presented bedroom on the first floor that features some stunning exposed brickwork, or head up to the second floor to gaze wistfully across the rooftops from the comfort of the charming window seat in the second bedroom tucked beneath the eaves. Soak up your salty seaside air by dining alfresco on the patio in the enclosed courtyard.

Fall in love with coastal living at the charming seaside haven of Seaton; while away an afternoon skimming stones at its mile-long beach (0.5 miles), explore the coastline from its best watery angle by hiring a kayak or paddleboard to journey around the bay or simply enjoy a scenic stroll along the far-reaching esplanade behind the beach. Keen walkers can join the South West Coast Path within half a mile of the cottage to be rewarded with breathtakingly beautiful sea views whilst children and families can dive into the history of the area by boarding the gauge tram railway (0.5 miles) to follow a scenic 3-mile riverside route.

A lovely little terraced house in a great location. Shops, restaurants, and the beach are all within easy walking distance. The house is a bit dated, but very charming. It has everything you need. I would definitely rent it again. Thank you so much for the welcome gift. It was all delicious!

Myself, husband and 15yr old son srayed at Bluebell Cottage, Seaton for 4 nights in August 2025. A lovely little cottage, beautifully decorated to a high standard. A great little porch, perfect for hanging coats and storing shoes. I thought the stone floor downstairs was great for keeping cool. The floor boards upstairs were very creaky, for me thiRead mores just adds to the character of the place but my husband wasn't so keen, more that they were so uneven & very steep stairs, which is in the description. The beds were very comfortable. A little tricky for dropping luggage off as front of cottage is right in front of t junction with traffic lights, but we managed to find an on road parking space a 100 metres down the road to unload, before moving car to the carpark just a few minutes walk away. We didnt cook during our stay & there were plenty of good cafes, restaurants near by. The beach is just a 5 minute walk away. We all enjoyed our stay. Hide

Bluebell cottage was a great quirky cottage very close to all amenities and also within walking distance to an Aldi and Tesco. The Seaton Tramway was a great day out which you can also walk to from the cottage. The parking permit is for Orchard car park (only a couple of minutes walk away) and is valid for the whole of your staywe had a bit of coRead morenfusion when we arrived, so just to clarify. The bed was very comfortable and the tv has all the entertainment you could want. The second bedroom upstairs has another tv in case you have children that want to watch something different. There is a lovely coastal walk from the cottage into Beer, which is well worth a visit. The donkey sanctuary is a short drive away. Sidmouth is around 20mins drive away. I would suggest this is not suitable accommodation for anyone with mobility issues as the staircase is very narrow and quite steep. There is also a step up from the lounge into the kitchen. If this isnt a problem for you and you want somewhere with convenience and comfort then I would definitely recommend, with the added bonus of being dog friendly! Hide

Bluebell Cottage is beautifully furnished, well equipped and very comfortable, though i must admit i did find the stairs to the top bedroom quite challenging, but good exercise and not much to be done about those without spoiling the character of the cottage, i bet kids love them! Seaton is a friendly seaside town, and we loved walking down to the Read moreesplanade and swimming, though the pebble beach is challenging for staying on your feet, beach shoes are essential. Axmouth harbour is fascinating with a narrow fast flowing channel in and out. The tramway is a great way to see Colyton. And the walk to Beer is good, but shame the coast path fell in to the sea a few years back, alot of road walking involved to get back to the cliffs. Hide

Nice and warm, comfortable bed. Space is limited in kitchen so i would think a washing machine is more important than dishwasher. No baking tray for oven. If you did a hand wash no facilities to hang anything on, I run every day and kit needs a wash, so did it by hand but no where to hang it.

This is a lovely cottage close to the local amenities with the beach and coastal walks in easy reach. The cottage itself is very nicely laid out and comfortable.

This is a beautiful cottage in a great location, and this was our second visit. It's so cosy and well presented, and feels like a lovely home away from home. We'll definitely be looking to book it again. The garden at the back is fully enclosed, so great for dogs too. We love Bluebell Cottage.

We had a glorious week in Bluebell Cottage. It was very cosy and met all our needs. We particularly appreciated the lovely, sunny back garden, the quality and comfort of the beds and bedding, and the parking permit which meant we didn't have to worry about parking at all.

We really had a lovely holiday and the cottage for us was brilliant. Location was excellent and parking is 1 minute away as the car park is behind on the next road. Steps inside cottage are steep but manageable. Very cute and compact, beds / sofas comfy and such a lovely garden to sit in for breakfast, lunch and tea. Lots of places to eat in SeatonRead more within walking distance and Aldi and Tesco short walk too. Hide
