Bridge Cottage

About this property

Bridge Cottage gives you a straightforward and welcoming base in Budleigh Salterton, one of Devon’s quieter coastal towns with plenty of charm tucked along the Jurassic Coast. It’s a great fit for couples, families or friends who want somewhere comfortable to return to after days spent roaming beaches, trails and nearby villages, and you can even bring the dog along. Head into the kitchen and you’ll find everything you need for proper home cooking, from an electric oven and convection hob to a dishwasher and washing machine, handy if you’ve been out exploring and brought half the countryside back with you.

The living/dining room offers an easy place to unwind, with an electric fire for those laid-back evenings and a TV when you just want to switch off for a bit. Upstairs, the double bedroom with its own TV and the twin room both offer a peaceful spot to rest. The main bathroom includes a corner bath with shower over, and the added cloakroom downstairs keeps things simple when everyone’s trying to get ready at once. Outside, the enclosed courtyard is a small but pleasant space for a quiet morning brew or something in the evening before heading out for dinner. With roadside parking, WiFi and gas central heating, the property handles the practicalities so you can focus on the good stuff.

Budleigh Salterton itself is a cracking little town, known for its long pebble beach, relaxed atmosphere and independent shops. The South West Coast Path runs right through, offering clifftop views and scenic routes that start practically on your doorstep. Exmouth is easily reached by car for sandy beaches and watersports, while Sidmouth delivers that old-school seaside feel, complete with promenade and cafés. If you fancy a change of pace, Exeter’s historic cathedral quarter, shops and restaurants make for a solid day out. Whether you’re here to take it steady or fill your days with fresh air and exploring, Bridge Cottage puts you in a great spot to enjoy this lovely stretch of Devon.

The picturesque town of Budleigh Salterton is nestled in the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the East Devon

Jurassic Coast at the mouth of the River Otter. From here you can enjoy a leisurely walk along the coast or stop off in one of the local cafes or pubs. The River Otter forms an area of grazing marsh and reed bed, which is of great significance for migratory birds and is therefore an excellent place for birdwatching. The coastal town is renowned for its preserved natural beauty, including a two-mile pebble beach for those wishing to take a dip in the crystal-clear water. The high street boasts an array of charming cafes, independent shops, pubs and a museum, or sit on a bench on the promenade to soak in the scenery. Cyclists will be delighted with the country lanes and National Cycle Routes, offering tranquility away from the busier roads in the town. There is also easy access into both Paddington and Waterloo from the nearby Exmouth railway station, making Budleigh Salterton an ideal base for everyone.
