Overview

Wagtail is a delightful cedar wood chalet situated on the south facing beach with uninterrupted sea views across Lyme Bay. The location is often described by visitors to this area as "idyllic". The outstanding beauty, on one of the most stunningly beautiful parts of rural Devon on the Jurassic Coast, is now recognised internationally as a World Heritage Site. Branscombe beach is dog friendly year round, so a perfect spot to holiday with your four legged friend!

Kitchen/diner: The kitchen/diner is equipped with full size gas cooker with hob, fridge, microwave, sink, plenty of storage space and all cooking utensils and crockery.

Bathroom: The bathroom has a shower in the bath, basin and WC.

Lounge: Living area with L-shaped seating and TV, with views over the terrace and out to sea. 

Bedroom One: Double bed with hanging and shelf storage 

Bedroom Two: Twin beds and storage - all with a beautiful sea view!

Terrace: French windows lead to the beautiful outside area with deck chairs overlooking the beach and sea. 

A permit is provided for 1 car in the main car park. Please note: there is a 2.2 metre height restriction for the car park.

Access: Wagtail is the first chalet along the track, around 200meters from the car park. We suggest packing lightly with rucksacks or a beach trolly to transfer your luggage accross to Wagtail from the car park. The Sea Shanty are able to offer a luggage buggy service for £25 which is available any day before 4pm (more details provided in arrival instructions).  

Guests can explore the Jurassic Coast whilst enjoying stunning walks in Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and  The South West Coast Path.  The Donkey Sanctuary,  Crealy and  Pecorama are all nearby for fun filled days with the kids. There are a wide range of activities nearby, from Paddleboarding and water skiing to Golf at  Sidmouth Golf Club. Sidmouth and the nearby local towns have a wealth of independent boutique shops, cafes and restaurants, including  Otterton Mill and  Lympstone Manor. There are two pubs within walking distance,  The Fountain Head and  The Masons Arms, along with the  Sea Shanty shop and cafe on Branscombe Beach.  

**Please note** There is no longer vehicular access on the lane in front of the chalets. Luggage must be carried from the car park. There are also intermittent ongoing repairs to the middle and end section of the lane including some of the closed chalets. Please note that Sweetcombe Cottage Holidays have no control over these maintenance repairs.**

The chalet was comfortable and well equipped. So lovely to stay on wonderful Branscombe beach , it is a very special place. Amazing to stay right in the beach. However it did feel different this year with so many of the chalets destroyed. The pathway was difficult , would have been good to have had help with getting bags to the chalet.

Response

Thank you for your kind words from your stay in 2024— we're so glad you enjoyed staying right on beautiful Branscombe beach. It truly is a special and unique location, and we’re delighted to hear you found the chalet comfortable and well equipped. As you noted, access to the chalets is now pedestrian-only, and we recommend bringing luggage in backpacks or using a beach trolley to make the 200m walk from the car park easier. We're pleased to share that The Sea Shanty now offers a paid luggage buggy transfer service — a fantastic new addition for 2025 that sadly wasn’t in place every day last year. Repairs to the damaged chalets are well underway, and we’re looking forward to seeing the new chalets. Despite the changes, Branscombe beach remains a truly magical place to unwind, and we hope to welcome you back again soon.
