Thank you for your kindly recommendation. Bryher is certainly well situated for days out in Somerset, Dorset or Devon -- or just walking down to Seaton and taking a tram ride across the Axe valley. Stephanie

Bryher was an excellent chance find on the internet and we were very comfortable there during our stay. The extremely hot weather could have marred our little break but the breeze coming up off the Corn field made it so much more pleasurable. We will most certainly return to Bryher again for a next break in that area........hopefully soon.Many thanks to StephanieNina, Peter, Jamie and Benji

A delightful cottage with an amazing view

The cottage was delightful and very comfortable. The host was very helpful and a nice touch was leaving binoculars for guests use which was really nice when looking out of the beautiful garden across the open field and the sea at Seaton. Definitely recommended for a quiet escape away. Great location.

Short break at Bryher

Great location, peaceful setting and lovely quaint cottage. Everything we hoped for for a short break away, despite the awful weather! P.S. makes such a difference having a self catering property with decent wine glasses 😃🍷. The little touches make a difference!

Great cottage in a lovely spot!

We had a great few days in the Easter holiday and wished we have booked for longer. Bryher cottage is very spacious for a two bedroom property and the pics do not do it justice. Nice size kitchen leading to the dining room and a spacious living area looking out to the fields and coast at the rear. Very clean and well equipped. Excellent location to explore Beer, Seatown, Sidmouth etc and the village itself was lovely with a cracking little pub (The Wheelwright) just 5 mins walk from the cottage. We would definitely recommend and hope to come back soon.

Wonderful cottage with fabulous views

We stayed at Bryher in Colyford over Easter and thoroughly enjoyed it. The cottage was clean and well-maintained and very charming. It has everything you need and lots of extras, so we were very comfortable in this delightful vacation spot. The owners, who live right next door, are very nice, and provided several welcoming touches, including a nice box of chocolates. The most unforgettable thing about this cottage is the views over the Axe Valley and down toward the sea. i could stand at the bedroom or dining room windows for hours just enjoying the peaceful scene. (The photos can't do it justice.) There is a lovely large garden, which came complete with a very proud pheasant who liked to sit on our garden wall or sometimes on the picnic table. There is a little village shop just a few hundred yards up the road for basics, and several towns within 5 - 10 minutes drive with supermarkets and lots of other shops. The owners are very good sources for restaurant and activity information, and there is a drawer full of brochures and other information in the cottage. I also enjoyed a day trip to Exeter (less than an hour by train) for a dose of city shopping and an excellent museum on the history of the area. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a country getaway, and will certainly stay there again.

Thank you for your kind words about your recent stay at Bryher and your enjoyment of the views and all that East Devon has to offer--- it certainly is a lovely part of England to visit.We are spoilt for eating places from Hugh Fernley Whittingstall and Mark Hix to the locally sourced food on offer in the village pubs and the fish and chips or indian take away when you want a night off.We hope you will be able to visit Bryher on your next trip to the UK.

Home From Home

We arrived to find the property beautifully warm and welcoming, with a fire laid ready for us in the lounge. The house was really clean and tidy with lots of little extras which were very much appreciated. Hand wash and lotion in the bathroom and kitchen. Napkins, candles and tissues for our use along with tea, coffee, milk and biscuits which were just what we needed after a long journey. We loved the fact that the house had been decorated very tastefully for Christmas and the real tree in the lounge was just perfect. The property has wonderful views over fields to the sea in the distance. The garden was totally safe for our dog and they even had an outside tap to wash her down. There were lots of books, games etc for us to use and we loved relaxing in front of the romantic fire on really comfortable sofas. The main bedroom overlooks the fields with the sea on the horizon. We were lucky enough to see a badger meander out as well as deer in the field one morning. There was an amazingly friendly little shop just down the road, an easy 5 minute walk. It sold an array of interesting items and even had fresh bread and croissants. It was also a Post Office with the added benefit of having a local butchers within its premises. No need to go to the local town for food although there is a large Superstore in Seaton. There are lovely walks locally and Colyford is within easy reach of Seaton, Beer and Lyme Regis which are all local seaside towns. If you fancy eating out there are numerous places to eat and there are recommenations in the "Information File" at the house. We had a wonderful time here and our daughters, both in their early 20's joined us for our last day and night. They also enjoyed their time here. We would definitely return to this property as it is a home from home rather than just a clean empty house and has the added advantage of being in the countryside whilst being less than 10 minutes drive from the coast.

Lovely cottage in tranquil setting

Just on the way home from a wonderful stay at Bryher. Cottage was great - kitchen had everything we needed, beds were very comfy, garden was beautiful and the views are absolutely amazing. Really good selection of games and DVDs for rainy days. Internet connection was quite temperamental, so probably not good enough for streaming - but guess this may be an issue with the area generally, rather than the cottage specifically. Such a quiet and tranquil setting made it a very relaxing place to stay. It is also a great place to explore the local area from. Lots of lovely beaches and coast walks nearby, the seaton wetlands sanctuary is a few minutes walk away, or you can get the tram to seaton or colyton. We were all sad to be leaving this morning, and the kids have already asked if we can come back next year!
