About this property
This modern Regency style house is located in a terrace directly on the seafront in Seaton. Just 200 yards from the shops, pubs and harbour, it is excellent accommodation for families with older children or anyone looking to enjoy the seaside and convenient amenities. The front door leads into the hall, off which is a handy quiet little study. The kitchen is well equipped with a dining area for enjoying family meals. Head on up the stairs and into your light, well furnished sitting room with great view of the sea, which you can enjoy even better from the balcony which opens out through sliding glazed doors.
On this level you have a twin bedroom and bathroom and then stairs take you up to the second floor and two more bedrooms, one with sea view and en suite. Wander outside to your private enclosed patio at the back with outdoor furniture, or take a stroll along the esplanade. This is a good area for sailing the estuary or walking the Coast Path along the Jurassic Coast cliffs. For families there is fun to be had riding on the Seaton Tramway through a nature reserve. The wetland nature reserve is a good place for pond dipping and picnicking. Hunt for fossils in pretty Lyme Regis, or head inland to equally pretty little villages.
6 Lyme Mews is a smashing base with a friendly town and beach on your doorstep.
Seaton is a seaside town in East Devon on the south coast. It faces onto Lyme Bay, to the west of the mouth of the River Axe with red cliffs to one side and white cliffs on the other. Axmouth and Beer are nearby.
