Property code: OC-JBHILL

This modern detached home is ideal for a family group to enjoy a seaside holiday on the Devon and Dorset coasts. It is set on a quiet residential street in the small market town of Colyton. The town offers a nice range of shops and pubs gathered around a pretty river, and all within a half a mile of the property. The fabulous beaches of the famous Jurassic Coast are less than 2 miles away and there are plenty to choose between. Lyme Regis is a lively summer resort with its sandy beaches and family-friendly entertainment. Fossil hunters should head to Charmouth Beach 10 miles away for a good chance of some interesting finds. Walkers can stride out along the stunning coastal path that links all of these golden sands.

The house is bright and modern with an open-plan living area arranged in an L-shape. The kitchen has everything you need to whip up big family meals together and the dining area is large and light-filled. The table is set up next to a set of French doors leading to the deck and garden. There is a snug living room with plenty of sofa space and a TV, and an additional lounge area with easy chairs gathered around a wood burner. A useful boot room completes the ground floor with plenty of space to store your beach gear along with a utility area and WC.

Upstairs guests will find three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The ample double master bedroom enjoys lovely countryside views, as does the smaller bunk bed room. The final bedroom is a spacious double and all three rooms share the use of the family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Outside guests will find a large lawn that’s ideal for family games and picnics, or simply for lounging in the sun with a good book. There is also a decked area with table and chairs for six making it ideal for summer dining in the open air. The garden is fully enclosed, but guests bringing small dogs should be aware that there is potential for them to escape behind the summerhouse.

Had to wash pans and crockery before use only 2 dishwasher tablets for a week. No new toilet roll on rings. Needed a really good clean. Hand marks all over glass and windows from previous guests. No carpet on stairs or anywhere upstairs tatty rug on floor in back bedroom. Stained mattress protectors. No blind at bathroom window at front of houRead morese. Loose floor dirty boards, no curtains in lounge. Grass needed cutting, rusting nails in pieces of wood in what looked like originally a raised bed. Way overpriced. No bag in vacuum so couldnt be used as we have a dog. Left early. To top it all Road was being dug up access very difficult!! On a positive views lovely. Hide

Poor cleanliness - mattress protector dirty, pillow dirty. Woodworm beetles in bedroom wardrobe hence all clothes needed washing when returning home even if not worn! Original Cottages were informed and were sent photos. All staff were pleasant and hopefully our next stay (in different property) will be better.

Excellent place to stay, perfect for the dog, she loved the big grass lawn, only a couple of miles from the beach too. Lovely and spacious, we had a great time here and would definately visit again!

The property needs updating, the mould in the bathroom on the walls needs looking at. Two dishes tablets for a house of 6 for a week, the top oven and grill not working and a big leak from the kitchen tap. The house needs a big spring clean. The shower needs relaxing as it wouldnt turn off.
