Stunning holiday home in beautiful Lyme Regis
We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lyme Regis! The house is brilliantly located a short walk from the centre of town and had everything we needed for our family (2 adults & 3 teenagers) to have a little mini-break over the Easter holidays. We particularly enjoyed being able to access beautiful walks and great restaurants without needing to use the car. We're already planning our next trip!

Maison Petite, Lovely river walk to the sea.
Had a lovely weekend. It was like home away from home. Everything that we needed was supplied. Handy to visit where we wanted to go. Lovely and clean ☺️

4 bed barn conversion - Countryside & River + pets
We have had a fantastic stay at The Swallows. This was our first family holiday with our two daughters, their partners and our one year old Granddaughter. The location was perfect and the accommodation had everything we needed. It was spotlessly clean. We loved being able to use the pizza oven for cooking and the location was perfect to visit all of our favourite haunts. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Tranquil rural retreat.
Kirsten was quick to respond, very helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. The property was extremely well organized and located in a lovely, peaceful area. Highly recommend this place.

Family & Dog Friendly Farmhouse Accommodation
Just got back from Exmouth following stay in Kate's place. Really enjoyed our stay. Everything we needed. Place was warm and cosy. First time away with dog and no problems. After a a day of walking perfect to come back to. Would highly recommend and will be on our list to return to. Jane and family

Cider Barn - Idyllic All-Seasons Holiday Cottage
The views from Cider Barn are so beautiful. We watched a barn owl hunting over the fields at dusk and dawn and the sound of a tawny owl whit wooing as I was going to sleep was magical! The living room / kitchen / dining is light and open plan and when I was there the sun was streaming in from sunrise to sunset. Loved watching the sunset with the owl hunting! Really enjoyed my stay here. It's an old barn - so the floor boards are a bit creaky but it is a special place.

The Nest, Luxury Barn With Hot Tub near the Sea
We loved every part of our stay at The Nest, Swallow's Flight. Lucia was the perfect host and welcoming from the out set providing useful accommodation info, a welcome guide and detailed arrival instructions. On arrival we felt immediately at home from the chalk written welcome sign and thoughtful extras including tasty local cookies, Salcombe chocolate, a lovely bottle of Cava and the most delicious (and most local milk) we have ever had from Coleridge Farm next door. Every detail had been thought of in the design and layout from guides, maps, to wood for the fire and toiletries and kitchen items, everything we should need or want. We felt so comfortable and cosy during our stay and couldn't have chosen a better place to spend our Anniversary. I already miss the gorgeous window seat with cosy sheepskin, cushions and sunlight streaming in, the perfect seat for the morning coffee whilst bird watching! We only wished we had booked longer but hope to come return!

Your guide to Exmouth
All About Exmouth
Just 20 minutes from the city of Exeter on the east coast of Devon, Exmouth is one of the oldest seaside towns in Britain. Exmouth’s main draw are its three kilometres of beautiful sandy beach, which are ideal for swimmers and sandcastle architects alike and offer many interesting rock pools to explore. The town is also known for watersports, as the waters here offer ideal conditions for sailing, kite surfing, and kayaking.
Exmouth is the gateway to the tremendous Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage site praised for its outstanding historical significance. The 150-kilometre stretch of unspoilt coastline along the South Coast dates back 250 million years and boasts an abundance of dramatic cliffs, hidden caves, coastal stacks, and fossils. You can explore it on a scenic walk that begins from the east of the town, or enjoy a guided boat tour. The popular Southwest Coast Path also runs through the town and continues along the South Coast for more than 1,000 kilometres, passing many beaches and picturesque villages.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Exmouth
Exmouth is a great year-round destination, with many holiday homes and cottages to choose from for your stay. In summer, you can expect warm sunny days, perfect for enjoying the beach, so make sure you pack a hat and sunscreen. In May, the free Exmouth Festival brings live music, family entertainment, arts and crafts, and food to town. Spring and autumn are also pleasant times to visit, when you can expect mostly mild days for enjoying the outdoors. Be aware that you are likely to experience some rain and cooler days, so bring your layers. If you’re visiting in October, you may catch the Exmouth Illuminated Carnival, where a street procession featuring spectacular lighted floats and people dressed in costumes winds through the town centre. A winter visit means colder temperatures and the likelihood of rain, so pack a warm jacket and gloves.
Top things to do in Exmouth
Exmouth Promenade
The three-kilometre promenade on Exmouth Beach is the ideal place for a relaxing stroll. In summer, you’ll pass by musical performances along the promenade. For a romantic walk, come back at night when the esplanade is beautifully lit up, offering spectacular views. The promenade has easy-to-navigate paths for cyclists and wheelchair users.
The Geoneedle
On the eastern end of Exmouth beach stands the Geoneedle at Orcombe Point, marking the beginning of the Jurassic Coast. Sitting high on the clifftop, this impressive landmark was constructed from a variety of the rocks found in the region. From here, you’ll also enjoy stunning views of the coastline and beachfront, as well as the beautiful rolling countryside around the town.
Exe Estuary Trail
Hire a bike in town and enjoy an easy cycle along the 26-kilometre, mainly flat route along the Exe Estuary, which also provides fantastic views of the River Exe. From Exmouth, you’ll first come to the picturesque villages of Lympstone and Exton before reaching Topsham, where you’ll find restaurants, boutiques, and antique shops. Then it’s onto Exeter Quay, with more cafes and arts and crafts shops. Continue cycling further, and you’ll pass the impressive Powderham Castle, reaching the end of the trail in the town of Dawlish.
