The location is amazing, overlooking the sea and train line and just a short walk from pubs, cafes and train station.
We stayed in the cottage next door a few years ago so were aware of the access to the property being down a ramp, steps and a narrow path but its worth it once you get your gear to the cottage. The sea front walkway is now fully open so over the bridge and few steps down will get you on there and itâs a short level walk to the centre, easier than going back up the slope. The things I will mention below did not affect our holiday but for the owner there are a couple of things to be looked and if no-one mentions them then the owner cannot sort it out. There are numerous bulbs out throughout the property, I'm happy to change a bulb in a lamp but these were spotlights, too high to reach without a stepladder. The handle has been snapped off the cupboard where the fridge is meaning you have to try and put your hand up underneath to grab the door of the freezer. Others have pulled at the door and caused the door to come away at the bottom. If I had a spanner and screwdriver I would have simply switched a handle from one of the other cupboards. The T.V in the living room does need updating or even just a DVD player put in front room. After a day of walking we like to watch a film but with basic T.V we ended up watching upstairs in the bedroom which meant we didn't make much use of the front room. We loved our stay and would definitely visit again, its just a shame its an 8-9 hour drive from newcastle!

This was our second stay at the cottage and we loved it.
It takes a while to get everything from the car (parked some distance away) to the cottage itself but once in, we had a very relaxing comfortable week. Thanks for the welcome pack (nice not to rush to the shops to have a cup of tea) and a special thanks to the owner who immediately posted on to us a leather jacket that weâd accidentally left behind. The beds were very comfortable and it was lovely to wake up to the sound of the sea each morning. I like to cater while weâre away and the kitchen was well equipped with everything needed (maybe a microwave spatter guard would be a good addition). The lounge had comfortable reclining sofas and a âno fussâ TV and we enjoyed our meals in bright dining area with a sea view. The patio out the back would be great for al fresco dining - maybe on another, warmer, visit? We hope to be back again and would certainly recommend to others looking for break that is quiet, yet handy for town and transport.

Great property, comfortable with four adults and two children ,although bedrooms a little tight with double beds and draw units etc, may struggle with six adults tbh.
Upon arriving I was expecting an en-suite as two bathrooms were advertised, although it does clearly state that one is located outside, which I would imaging would be a little chilly in the winter months, and tbh I must have missed when booking, so beware. Ideally suited to a family as opposed to six friends/three couples. lovely balcony/terrace to sit out in the sun ,some walls could do with repainting too.Trains frequent but tbh don't really bother you as you get use to them, cracking views and very lovely neighbours at no 7.Also take note of the parking and access instructions, they are clear enough to follow, but parking is very limited in the side roads and whilst unloading/loading luggage/food etc I would reccommend smaller lighter bags, and more trips than large heavy boxes and cases as the amount of steps and walking required is quite tiring, if like me you are not the fittest person around, all in all a lovely week.

We loved it here!
The views of the sea and railway line are fantastic (and one of the main reasons we chose here). We didn't use much of the kitchen equipment but it looked as though everything needed was available (we couldn't find the freezer though). We used the bedroom with the wardrobe. Found the pillows to be a little too hard, but that's possibly down to our preference. We would echo a previous review about the TV in the living room being outdated but this wasn't a major issue for us. The on road parking (Elm Grove Road) was ok for us, but I can imagine it would be difficult in busier months. After speaking to a holidaymaker next door, they had a resident's permit available to them, maybe this could be looked into for future guests? All in all, this is a great place to stay and if we're looking to stay in this area again we would definitely want to book here.

We had an excellent week at 8 Coastguard Cottages.
The property was immaculate and well equipped. We loved watching the world go by from the patio and, on occasions, watching the waves lashing over the new sea wall. We travelled to Dawlish by train and found this an excellent location for going out on train trips during our stay. We visited Exeter, Okehampton, Teignmouth, Torquay, Paignton, Dartmouth and Totnes. There is a lovely walk along the coast from outside the cottages into Dawlish Warren. The local buses also stop on the main road adjacent to the cottages and run regularly late into the evening. We were aware of the steps down to No.8 but would recommend to others they take a small torch if planning to stay out after dark as part of the path was unlit.
