Temple House in Sidmouth is a well-received holiday cottage, praised for its comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, and ample parking. Its location is ideal for exploring the town and nearby beaches. The garden and outdoor seating add to its charm, although some guests suggested minor improvements for an even better stay.
The property generally appears to be clean and well-maintained, with one review noting it wasn't to the high standard expected. This suggests room for improvement in cleanliness, but overall, the feedback is positive.
The location is highly praised for being within walking distance to the town, beach, and local amenities, making it an ideal spot for visitors looking to explore Sidmouth and its surroundings.
Guests find the beds extremely comfortable and the house warm and welcoming. However, some noted that certain rooms could benefit from additional features like fans or blinds for enhanced comfort.
The property is well-equipped, particularly the kitchen, but there are several suggestions for improvements such as additional seating, storage, and maintenance issues like the bathroom tap and electrics. These indicate that while facilities are good, there is scope for better maintenance.

Nestled in the popular seaside resort of Sidmouth, Devon, is this wonderful four-bedroom, detached holiday home, Temple House. Enjoying a fabulous coastal location just moments away from the beach and set along the World Heritage site of the Jurassic Coast, Temple house is a fantastic dog-friendly dwelling for a group or family of eight, plus their canine companion. Park-up on the spacious driveway with space for up to six cars, before being greeted by a south-facing patio area, a perfect spot for enjoying your morning coffee. Step into your new home, where on the left you will find a well-equipped double aspect kitchen/diner, featuring granite worktops, a Smart fridge/freezer and dishwasher, here you can whip up delicious meals to enjoy at the dining table for eight over a bottle of fizz. On warmer days, why not savour your meal out in the rear garden? The space also features a wall-mounted Smart TV for catching up on your favourite shows and mood lighting. Continue through to the sitting room, where you can look forward to relaxing on the plush seating as you enjoy a family film night on the TV over bowls of popcorn. Completing the ground floor is a handy utility space with washer/dryer and a cloakroom for your convenience. Follow the stairs with low level LED lights along the skirting boards, where you will find three beautifully appointed bedrooms, a super-king-size, a double with en-suite shower room, and a twin, all with their own TV, along with a gleaming shower room for freshening up after a long day of exploring. Continue up to the second floor, where you will find the final bedroom, a spacious super-king-size with en-suite bathroom (both with zone lighting) perfect for indulging in a soak in the bath. Pack up your bathing suits, swimming trunks and towels and head straight for the glorious sands of Sidmouth Beach, where you can paddle the shores, bathe with your favourite book, or try your hand at watersports. Within the town, you will find a good selection of welcoming eateries, whether it’s hearty pub classics at The Courtyard and The Anchor Inn, fresh seafood at Neil’s Restaurant, or light bites at The White Horse Café, there is something to suit every taste and budget. Just moments away from Temple House, you will find the idyllic surroundings of The Byes, a lovely park with a stream running through, perfect for leisurely strolls. You can also delve into history at the Sidmouth Museum, wander the Blackmore Gardens, test out your swing at the Sidmouth Golf Club, and hike through the stunning National Trust site of Sidmouth Countryside, where you will find the fascinating Norman Locker Observatory, featuring a planetarium.

South Devon's Jurassic Coast, which includes Sidmouth, is a world-class tourist destination and a designated World Heritage Site. There's a family-friendly beach with rock pools and safe bathing at low tide where the River Sid cuts through the Devon hills and meets the sea at Lyme Bay, a clean pebbly beach that gives way to golden sands at low tide. Sidmouth's Esplanade is lined with Regency-style cream-and-white architecture, creating a relaxing stroll as you gaze out at Beer Head from the vantage point. Sidmouth is home to the Norman Lockyer Observatory, which includes a planetarium and is one of the few public observatories in the country. Pecorama, which features an award-winning miniature railway and gardens, the Seaton tramway, and the Otter Estuary Nature Reserve are all nearby attractions in Sidmouth. If you're looking to unwind after a long day of hiking or exploring, there are numerous places to stop for tea, coffee, and a hearty meal.
