This single-storey cottage is exceptional high quality, with plenty of private parking, a terrace and extensive gardens.
The sitting/dining-room has French windows out onto a lovely terrace for al fresco dining.
Looking along the length of the wide hallway with the kitchen off to the left and the sitting/dining-room straight ahead.
This is the second double bedroom. Very spacious with plenty of fitted wardrobe space and an en suite bathroom.
The stone terrace has beautifully planted borders and French windows from the living-area, lead straight out onto it. You can see the corner of the owner's home next door - The Coach House is on a higher level and tucked behind it.
The Coach House is approached along this private road across the Axe Valley. There are footpaths along the river banks for you to enjoy with your dog.
This is the little harbour at Seaton - your closest beach. There is a delightful cafe on the quayside and a wide pebbled bay.
There is a wonderful wood-burning stove for out-of-season breaks - this is the most welcoming of cottages whatever the time of year.

The circular dining-table extends if you wish.
In the opposite direction, looking down towards the two spacious en suite bedrooms.

The kitchen is well-equipped and offers plenty of space.
Throughout the cottage you get glimpses of the gardens.
This bedroom has the option for twin beds or a 'zip and link' super-king double bed.

Oh so pretty, bedroom 2.
The en suite bathroom is bright and cheerful.
This bathroom has so much space.
This is the creatively decorated cloakroom.
The quality inside this property is exceptional.
The Coach House is embraced with beautiful flower borders and has its own beautiful gardens, set within the grounds of a country house. There are a couple of steps down to the front door and then one up.
There are beautiful gardens in a set of terraces, with seating to choose from to enjoy this most peaceful setting.
Another view of the stunningly planted gardens for The Coach House. Stone steps lead from one level to another - a delight to explore.
Also very nearby is the fishing village of Beer - well worth a visit. It is like stepping back in time, with fishing boats drawn up on the beach.
This is the river Axe. You cross the river to reach the Coach House and there are footpaths all along the banks.
A wider view of the fishing village of Beer. Seaton is to the far right of the photo - at the head of the Axe Valley - and just a few miles from The Coach House. This is an excellent stretch of the South West Coast Path.
The World Heritage Jurassic Coast is just a five mile drive away, stretching through east Devon and over the border at Lyme Regis into Dorset. Seaton, the nearest beach, is in the distance.
Lyme Regis, such a wonderful iconic town, is a very short drive from The Coach House. Whatever the time of year this is a great place to visit.
Sidmouth is one of the many delightful coastal towns in east Devon. This pebbled beach has plenty of sand at low tide.

Excellent place to stay for peace and quiet and access to the coast.
Ms Kahn April 2024
We were very happy with our stay at The Coach House. The grounds we overlooked were spectacular and even though we had a wooded area above where we were staying it was not that easy to access it. Having said that, both my friend and I are in our 70s and a rail to hold on to over on the nearest side to the house would have been appreciated. We did have a lovely sun trap terrace though and perhaps if it was the height of summer a parasol or awning to give some shade would be a good addition. These are minor niggles though - the property itself is beautiful, all the furnishings are of an excellent standard, the beds and linen as good as the finest hotel. We were very impressed and would recommend this beautiful property wholeheartedly. ...

This is our second visit to the Coach House and it is a really lovely cottage, owned by very nice people and maintained by a really lovely housekeeper and her husband. Well equipped, spotlessly clean, comfortable furniture and lovely beds. I would whole heartedly recommend it. Beautiful, peaceful location too!...
