The Cottage

About this property

The Cottage is a characterful cottage resting in Budleigh Salterton, Devon, just moments from the beach and bustling High Street, offering two bedrooms, flexible sleeping, and an enclosed rear courtyard. Arrive in the heart of this much-loved seaside town, leave the car in nearby roadside or car park spaces, and step into the small but perfectly formed property which boasts a gorgeously inviting traditional interior.

A small snug-style sitting room welcomes you to unwind in the evening, with a Smart TV on hand for family film nights and an external door leading directly onto the courtyard, so you can drift outside with a drink as the light fades. The kitchen may be compact, but it is amply kitted out, giving you everything needed for easy suppers after days by the sea. A dedicated dining area gives you a space where you can linger over unhurried breakfasts as you map out the day’s adventures. Upstairs, a double bedroom and a twin with zip/link beds, which can be made into a double on request, ensure a flexible layout for a small family or couples sharing. A family bathroom, complete with a bath, finishes the internal layout.

Outside, the enclosed rear courtyard offers a private spot to sit with a morning coffee while your four-legged friend potters nearby. With the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Jurassic Coast, and National Cycle routes all within reach, The Cottage in Budleigh Salterton, Devon, promises a delightful base for discovering this striking stretch of coastline.

The picturesque town of Budleigh Salterton is nestled in the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the East Devon

Jurassic Coast at the mouth of the River Otter. From here you can enjoy a leisurely walk along the coast or stop off in one of the local cafes or pubs. The River Otter forms an area of grazing marsh and reed bed, which is of great significance for migratory birds and is therefore an excellent place for birdwatching. The coastal town is renowned for its preserved natural beauty, including a two-mile pebble beach for those wishing to take a dip in the crystal-clear water. The high street boasts an array of charming cafes, independent shops, pubs and a museum, or sit on a bench on the promenade to soak in the scenery. Cyclists will be delighted with the country lanes and National Cycle Routes, offering tranquility away from the busier roads in the town. There is also easy access into both Paddington and Waterloo from the nearby Exmouth railway station, making Budleigh Salterton an ideal base for everyone.
