A beautifully presented holiday home. Amazing views over the village and plenty of wildlife too (owls hooting, a visiting sparrowhawk and friendly horses in the fields. Lorraine and Bob (+ Millie the dog) were very welcoming and a wealth of local knowledge with lots to see and do close by.

Seascape The house is perched high in the hills so we were able, from the balcony, to have a wonderful view of Beer village and its habour. Importantly, it was just a few steps from a field where we were able to excercise our dog, Ruby. As dog owners, we were well pleased. The accomodation was of an exceptional high standard and was well equiped with all the essentials needed to be self sufficient. We were given a very warm welcome from Loraine and Bob. There were lots of places to see around Beer and they helped us to make our choices and the directions to take. We would not normaly return to the same place but the friendliness of Loraine and Bob and the beautiful countryside in and around Beer has made us reconsider. Daphne and Alan

Seascape Holiday Cottage We went away to with my parents and our dog. The holiday cottage was, was very dog friendly, clean, tidy, with spectacular views over Beer. The field next to the cottage, is great for dogs. Lorraine & Bob are warm, welcoming and a friendly couple, always there if we needed anything and also gave us great information about places to visit with our dog. Highly recommended, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would love to see Lorraine and Bob in the future.
