The property
The Granary is a delightful and well presented countryside retreat nestled at the end of a long private driveway, located just outside Axminster near the borders of Devon, Somerset and Dorset. One of three charming cottages, it offers easy access to the A35 and the surrounding area including the stunning Jurassic Coast and the beaches of Lyme Regis and Charmouth.
Inside, The Granary is arranged in an upside down layout to make the most of its beautiful rural views. Upstairs, the spacious open plan lounge, kitchen and dining area is filled with natural light from large windows on both sides. The well-equipped kitchen allows you to create meals with ease which can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar or dining table while you take in the far-reaching countryside beyond. Throughout the property, guests will find stylish and thoughtful touches that create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, blending comfort with character.
Downstairs, there are two comfortable bedrooms, one king size and one single, both bright and inviting. A contemporary bathroom with shower over bath and WC is also located on the ground floor.
Outside, guests can enjoy a shared garden with outdoor seating, bordered by colourful planting and offering breathtaking views across open farmland.
An area popular with visitors, there is a wealth of natural beauty and local attractions to explore. Lyme Regis is a favourite for families, with its safe, sandy beach, the iconic Cobb harbour, and a brilliant mix of places to eat, like Swim with its sea views or the ever-popular Rockfish for fresh seafood. Just down the coast, Charmouth is a fossil hunter’s dream. Head to the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre where you can learn all about the Jurassic Coast, join a guided fossil walk, or simply explore the beach and see what ammonites and other fossils you can discover.
For walkers and nature lovers, the South West Coast Path provides spectacular coastal views and scenic footpaths, while the surrounding countryside is ideal for peaceful rambles. Just a short drive away, Millers Farm Shop is a must-visit for fresh local produce and artisan goods, perfect for stocking up on day-to-day essentials for your stay.
Whether you're looking for a tranquil escape or a base for adventure, The Granary is a wonderful choice for your next Devon getaway.
