Sidmouth is a
beautiful, unspoilt regency
town overlooking the waters of Lyme Bay. It has managed to preserve much
of its
old world charm with few chains stores and no large supermarkets. With an
original seafront and promenade, the town it made for browsing with some
genuinely unique shops and family businesses. At low tides Jacobs Ladder exposes
a sandy beach just below Connaught Gardens which is great for the kids -
especially between the groins.. |

| Situated 12 miles
to the East of Stoneleigh, Lyme Regis is a historic unspoiled seaside resort and
fishing port on the world famous Cobb harbour. Surrounded by beautiful
coastlines and countryside, the area has now been
awarded World Heritage Site Status. Famous for its geology and
fossil finds. Enjoy it’s dramatic location, congenial climate, timeless
charm and the hospitality of it’s townsfolk. From the crest of Timber Hill
a magnificent, panoramic view of the bay lies before you with the blue sea
above the ragged rooftops of the town, embracing and beckoning. The
delightful maze of steep, narrow streets with their interesting
architecture, shops, galleries, pubs and cafes just begs to be explored.
There are sheltered south facing beaches, safe for bathing, and the sunny
sandbar overlooking the harbour and traffic free promenade create an
environment where children can play safely. |

 Exmouth is a
beautiful family resort with its 2 mile long seafront, lovely cliff walks
with stunning views of the bay. It has an excellent beach for the family
to swim and play or just to relax, or enjoy its many activities. Sand
dunes and rock pools and plenty of sea front attractions will keep
everyone entertained for hours.
The promenade is two miles long and still has
old favourites such as swingboats and crazy golf even sometimes a Punch &
Judy Show! |

Beer is a delightful and historical fishing village some 5 miles from the
Bungalow. It continues it's strong fishing tradition, but offers something
for everyone. The high street has some unique curio shops mixing with the
bakers and tea-rooms. The beach itself has rock-pools at low tide, some
restaurants and offers disabled access via the matt paths pinned to the
beach. The mackerel fishing from boats in summer is great fun - we
normally have a boat full. |

 Axmouth
Harbour is right beside Seaton and is good for a short walk along the
harbour wall towards the sea, but mostly because it's great for crabbing.
If you have never been crabbing and have kids under 95 then it always
passes a few interesting hours. For really small ones you can crab from
the opposite bank which is gently sloped pebbles. There is a small cafe
and Fishing Tackle shop. The older bridge is the first concrete bridge
somewhere (Apparently). |
