This period semi-detached holiday cottage overlooks the beautiful Axe Valley and is just one mile from the popular holiday resort of Seaton, on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. It is located in the village of Colyford, which is a situated near the border of East Devon and West Dorset, just 7 miles from Sidmouth and 7 miles from Lyme Regis. The area is a quiet, peaceful location where you can get-away-from-it-all and relax amongst beautiful rolling countryside and lovely beaches. Colyford boasts a well stocked friendly village shop/PO/butcher, just a 5 minute walk, where you can go in for the morning papers and come out with a local pie for lunch and a bottle of wine for the evening. Buy some of the fantastic produce from the butcher for a barbecue in the garden or walk to of the 2 village pubs which both serve food. Bryher is a 5 minute walk to the Seaton Wetlands Centre where you can walk into Seaton and visit the Jurassic centre and ride the Seaton tram. There are plenty of attractions for young and not so young: Pecorama in Beer with its beautiful landscaping around their miniature steam railway is a must day out. Seaton has its own tram which you can see crossing the valley from the vantage point of the garden, you can even drive a tram if you book in advance. Bicton park, Escot and Killerton house all have something to offer and if you come in the autumn there will be a carnival in a Devon village somewhere to experience. Bryher is situated in a beautiful area where you can enjoy the local pleasures of walking the South West Coastal Path, fossil hunting at Lyme Regis, stopping for a fresh crab sandwich on Beer beach or a cream tea in Sidmouth after scouring the antique shops in Honiton for a bargain.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a fenced private yard.

A delightful cottage with an amazing view
The cottage was delightful and very comfortable. The host was very helpful and a nice touch was leaving binoculars for guests use which was really nice when looking out of the beautiful garden across the open field and the sea at Seaton.
Definitely recommended for a quiet escape away. Great location.

Short break at Bryher
Great location, peaceful setting and lovely quaint cottage. Everything we hoped for for a short break away, despite the awful weather!
P.S. makes such a difference having a self catering property with decent wine glasses 😃🍷. The little touches make a difference!

Great cottage in a lovely spot!
We had a great few days in the Easter holiday and wished we have booked for longer.
Bryher cottage is very spacious for a two bedroom property and the pics do not do it justice. Nice size kitchen leading to the dining room and a spacious living area looking out to the fields and coast at the rear.
Very clean and well equipped.
Excellent location to explore Beer, Seatown, Sidmouth etc and the village itself was lovely with a cracking little pub (The Wheelwright) just 5 mins walk from the cottage.
We would definitely recommend and hope to come back soon.

We really enjoyed our stay at Bryher. It is a lovely cosy cottage with everything you need. Very clean and comfortable with a fabulous Rayburn range that was easy to use. Really comfy beds and a beautiful view over the fields to Seaton Wetlands. We had a lovely welcome pack with lots of treats. Bryher felt like a lovely hug!

Lovely cottage in tranquil setting
Just on the way home from a wonderful stay at Bryher. Cottage was great - kitchen had everything we needed, beds were very comfy, garden was beautiful and the views are absolutely amazing. Really good selection of games and DVDs for rainy days. Internet connection was quite temperamental, so probably not good enough for streaming - but guess this may be an issue with the area generally, rather than the cottage specifically. Such a quiet and tranquil setting made it a very relaxing place to stay. It is also a great place to explore the local area from. Lots of lovely beaches and coast walks nearby, the seaton wetlands sanctuary is a few minutes walk away, or you can get the tram to seaton or colyton.
We were all sad to be leaving this morning, and the kids have already asked if we can come back next year!

July Break
We had a wonderful week at Bryher with wonderful weather and such beautiful scenery. The house was well furnished and very comfortable. Excellent location but you do need a car to make exploring that much easier. My Mum came on holiday with us who is visually impaired, and at 81 she found the bath too difficult to access. The property could be enhanced perhaps with a stool and shower curtain for the slightly older person ! Lottie our tibetan terrier also had a fab time and we would not hesitate to return.
