Guests say
Bluebell Cottage in Seaton is praised for its cosy charm, excellent location near the town and seafront, and comfortable furnishings. Guests appreciate the pretty garden and the convenience of a parking permit. While some guests suggest improvements in cleanliness and maintenance, the overall experience is positive, with many looking forward to returning.
Guests have mentioned the need for a deeper clean in the kitchen and some issues with the bins and bathroom cleanliness on arrival. However, these seem to be isolated incidents rather than a general trend.
The cottage's location is consistently highlighted as ideal, with its proximity to shops, pubs, the seafront, and a nearby car park. It serves as a great base for exploring the surrounding areas.
The comfort of the beds and sofas is frequently commended, and the cottage is described as cosy and welcoming. The steep stairs are noted, which may affect those with mobility issues or small children.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-received heating system and a lovely garden. Some guests experienced issues with the parking permit and suggested the inclusion of more pictures of the outdoor space on the website.
The owner's thoughtfulness is evident in gestures like leaving scones for guests upon arrival. While such gifts are appreciated, they are a personal touch and may not be a consistent offering for all stays.
About this property
Offering timelessly charming, sumptuous interiors brimming with original characterful features that’ll transport you to centuries past, this vibrant cosy cottage is the perfect spot for couples and families to retire to after adventuring around the Jurassic Coast, uncovering the sandy beaches, charming towns and scenic footpaths this part of East Devon is famous for.
Exposed brickwork, a striking ornamental fireplace, periodic features and a rich, sumptuous colour palette in the lounge/diner create a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere that invites you to hunker down on the plush sofa with your four-legged friends at your feet and catch the latest blockbuster on the Smart TV. Answer the call of hungry tummies in the contemporary galley-style kitchen by rustling up a family feast with the delicious local produce you’ve collected. Climb the winding cottage staircase to find a beautifully presented bedroom on the first floor that features some stunning exposed brickwork, or head up to the second floor to gaze wistfully across the rooftops from the comfort of the charming window seat in the second bedroom tucked beneath the eaves. Soak up your salty seaside air by dining alfresco on the patio in the enclosed courtyard.
Fall in love with coastal living at the charming seaside haven of Seaton; while away an afternoon skimming stones at its mile-long beach (0.5 miles), explore the coastline from its best watery angle by hiring a kayak or paddleboard to journey around the bay or simply enjoy a scenic stroll along the far-reaching esplanade behind the beach. Keen walkers can join the South West Coast Path within half a mile of the cottage to be rewarded with breathtakingly beautiful sea views whilst children and families can dive into the history of the area by boarding the gauge tram railway (0.5 miles) to follow a scenic 3-mile riverside route.

This is a beautiful cottage in a great location, and this was our second visit. It's so cosy and well presented, and feels like a lovely home away from home. We'll definitely be looking to book it again. The garden at the back is fully enclosed, so great for dogs too. We love Bluebell Cottage.

We had a glorious week in Bluebell Cottage. It was very cosy and met all our needs. We particularly appreciated the lovely, sunny back garden, the quality and comfort of the beds and bedding, and the parking permit which meant we didn't have to worry about parking at all.
