    “We had a wonderful stay at the Boat Shed.”

    The property was tidy, kitchen well supplied & the grounds are stunning with good facilities. A few niggles only, there was an odour arising from the cupboard under the stairs (wet mop) which needed drying out before storage. We had difficulty using the ensuite shower (too hot/cold) on the first level but managed on the second setting. We found Beer a delightful place to stay & explore with pleasant restaurants, & good array of shops . Our hosts were very friendly & helpful. I would ...

The Garlands At Beer

The Garlands at Beer consists of three well-presented self-catered holiday homes resting in the charming fishing village of Beer, Devon. This dog-friendly collection offers exceptional sea views, fully-equipped kitchens, inviting living and dining areas, TVs with Freeview and DVD players, private terraces with furniture and fantastic views, and off-road parking, making it a lovely base for couples, friends and families. The cottages are ideally located just moments away from the beautiful beach and the quaint main street, where you will find a selection of individual shops, galleries, takeaways, and welcoming eateries, including The Smugglers Kitchen and Anchor Inn. Beer’s family-friendly shingle beach, with its iconic limestone cliffs, is a perfect spot for swimming, watersports, or joining one of the many pleasure fishing boat trips which launch from the shore. Be sure to check out the fascinating Beer Quarry Caves, where you can join daily tours through this ancient quarry which dates back to Roman times. Next stop is Sidmouth, home to its own gorgeous beach, along with the beautiful National Trust Sidmouth Countryside, the Nortman Locker Observatory, and the Donkey Sanctuary which is open seven days a week a home to hundreds of sweet donkeys. For the foodies of your group, why not visit River Cottage, home of the TV chef Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall, and partake in one of the popular dining events or food courses. Being so close to the sea, fish features prominently on the many menus – try Hix’s Oyster and Fish House in Lyme Regis for a special occasion or a locally caught crab sandwich in one of the beach front cafes. At Lyme Regis you will find the further attractions of Lyme Regis Fossil Beach, Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium, the Harbour Inn, Marine Theatre, and the Lyme Regis Museum. For an unforgettable stay in Devon, look no further than The Garlands at Beer.

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.
