The property
Sea Haven, a bright and spacious ground-floor apartment located only moments away from the beach. The picturesque fishing village of Beer in East Devon is where you will find your new abode, perfect for couples looking for a seaside break. Sea Haven is an ideal choice for exploring this stunning stretch of World Heritage Coastline between the popular seaside resorts of Lyme Regis and Sidmouth. Inside, the spacious, open-plan living area has personal touches from the owners, giving the apartment a welcoming feel. The electric, woodburning-effect stove is perfect for the chillier evenings spent relaxing on the sofa watching TV or a film. The adjoining kitchen is well-equipped with everything needed to rustle up meals with a coffee machine the perfect addition for that all-important start to the day. All on one level, the bedroom is a plush double with a stylish shower room perfect for freshening up when you wake. Step out the front door and find yourself just a stone's throw from the sheltered cove and shingle beach, a popular spot for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. The bay still boasts a small fleet of working fishing boats so why not join one of the local mackerel fishing trips which run regularly or simply sit in at one of the beach cafes and watch the local fishermen with their traditional fishing boats bringing their catches ashore? When it comes to food, there is no shortage of options for eating out with Beer having a fantastic choice of restaurants and pubs offering local food and of course, fresh seafood; with a pop-up beachside paella stall a firm favourite during the summer evenings. Be sure to also sample a pint of Beer at the aptly named Barrel of Beer. Worthy of a visit is the Beer Quarry Caves, dating back more than 2,000 years and famous for its quarried stone that has been used in many historic buildings such as Exeter and St Paul's Cathedrals. The nearby seaside town of Seaton is a great place to visit; spend a day at its popular Wetlands Centre, made up of three nature reserves with nearly 4km of level trails and a boardwalk through beautiful marshland and reed beds alongside the River Axe estuary. Lyme Regis, renowned for fossil hunting and the iconic Cobb Harbour, is another favourite and well within reach for a memorable day out. With so much to see and do in the area, Sea Haven is an excellent choice for your next seaside escape in Devon.

About the location
BEER
Seaton 1.5 miles; Lyme Regis 9 miles; Sidmouth 9.5 miles; Exeter 25 miles.
Beer is a small picturesque fishing village on the south Devon coast near Seaton. The shingle beach is very sheltered, backed by limestone cliffs and was once fertile smuggling territory, plus contraband was hidden in nearby caves, which are now a popular tourist attraction. Beer is situated on the stretch of Devon coastline, known as the Jurassic Coast, a designated World Heritage Site, and the village offers sloping streets lined with picturesque stone houses and cottages built on many different levels of the steep valley sides. There are a good range of shops, friendly cafes, restaurants and pubs in Beer, plus just outside the village is the popular Pecorama Gardens, which are perched on the hill overlooking Lyme Bay. Pecorama boasts the Beer Heights Light Railway and indoor model railway exhibition, along with a children's play area. Beer is a unique Devon fishing village and a great place to stay.
