Coastguard Cottage is strategically located just ten meters from Exeter Road, minimizing road noise while providing breathtaking views from its elevated position above the sea walls. However, guests should be mindful of the ten-meter drop behind the low wall in the garden, which is why the property is not suitable for children under 16 years old. Despite these precautions, the cottage serves as an excellent retreat for those looking to experience the beauty of the seaside, with Dawlish's array of shops, cafés, and amusements just a short distance away.
The nearby Dawlish Warren beach, known for its golden sand dunes and nature reserve, offers a perfect day out for nature enthusiasts, featuring migratory birds and scenic meadows. For those who enjoy outdoor activities, the area provides numerous walking and cycling routes along Exeter Canal and the River Exe. Additionally, the cottage serves as a convenient base for day trips to Exeter, Torbay, or Dartmoor National Park, making it an ideal choice for exploring the diverse landscapes and attractions of South Devon.
