Great location for a stay in Sidmouth. A minute from the sea, just a few from the main street shops. Of which there is a great selection. Unfortunately, no sea view, but then it keeps the price lower . Spacious and well equipped, more than the two of us needed. A secure , if tight, covered parking space with a lift to property. We enjoyed coastal walks , which started minutes from the property, and a circular walk ending in the town by thd River Sid weir. The front doesnt have amusement arcades or tacky shops selling beach balls, just nicely presented hotels, restaurants and bars . The Marine is one minute away , nice staff and atmosphere, the Dukes is 3 minutes , outside seating just off the esplanade, and the Anchor 5 minutes, with excellent food. Lots of other places to eat and drink , just wish we had more time .
