About this property

This neat little cottage on a no-through road is attached to a house about a mile from Dawlish town centre. With an upside down, private layout, it is a brilliant base for couples or anyone seeking a single holiday with lots to discover in the area. From the shared drive, your entrance takes you into the hall, off which is your spacious double en suite bedroom. Upstairs, you can relax in the sitting room with dining table, or wander out on a sunny day to the balcony, shared with the owners, which has fabulous views over the town and the coast and a table and chairs for eating outside. A neat kitchen is a well equipped space for preparing meals. As well as the balcony, you have your own suntrap area to sit within the garden. The cliff path leads in five minutes to the Coast Path and secluded little rock pool beaches at Boat Cove and Coryton Cove. Dawlish Warren National Nature Reserve is within walking distance via the seafront or four minutes by train/road. Wander the half mile footpath down into Dawlish town centre with its range of amenities and the sandy beach, or take to your bikes to cycle the easy Exe Estuary Trail to the cathedral city of Exeter. For more adventurous cycling, the 3,500 acre Haldon Hills Forest Park is criss-crossed with trails for all abilities, as well as for walkers, perfectly completed by brunch or a luscious slice of cake in the café. Take the pedestrian ferry from Starcross to Exmouth, with its long beach, or head to the beach and nature reserve at Dawlish Warren. With Exeter, Torquay and Dartmoor within easy reach, Exe View is a brilliant base for touring Devon with or without a car.

A couple of miles north east of the town of Dawlish is Dawlish Warren, a mile-long sand spit at the mouth of the River Exe on the stretch of south Devon coastline known as the English Riviera. Dawlish Warren has a selection of shops selling essentials, a golf course and a 55-acre nature reserve, an area of international importance for wildlife, and a roosting site for huge numbers of wading birds and wildfowl that winter on the estuary

    Everything was fine in gaining access & the property was spotlessly clean. There was a welcome tray in the kitchen & a bottle of Proseco in the fridge. Wow! The scones, jam & cream were lovely. We could not have asked for more. On our departure day we decided to leave early because of Friday traffic & were not able to say personally how much we had enjoyed our stay at Exe View & to say thank you for everything. So through yourselves please express our gratitude & thanks, we had a lovely week & weather very kind.

    Dawlish is a lovely place plenty of shops and coffee shops. Sue and Andy met us on arrival and showed us around. The accommodation was spotlessly clean. The cream scones with a bottle of Cava and cider went down a treat. Will differently be returning.

    We are welcomed by the owner when we arrived . There was a cream tea waiting for us and the house was spotlessly clean . The kitchen had absolutely everything you could possibly need. When the weather was wet we were able to stay in and look out over the sea in comfort.
