Leigh Holiday Cottages are located on East Devon’s Jurassic coast, within the quiet secluded hamlet of Weston. The family-owned cottages are just three miles from the popular Regency seaside resort of Sidmouth and two miles from the pretty village of Branscombe.
Weston and the surrounding land is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and much of the beautiful coastline is managed by the National Trust. The cottages are in an enviable position just 150 yards from a scenic NT valley, which steeply drops down to the shingle beach at Weston and the South West coastal paths, providing wonderful walking opportunities. They are also very close to the Donkey Sanctuary.
There are panoramic views from Weston Cliff to Portland and Chesil Beach to the East, and to Teignmouth, the South Hams and Brixham to the West. This beautiful unspoilt part of East Devon is a haven for nature-lovers, bird watchers and cyclists, and Leigh Cottages provide a relaxing and friendly base from which to explore the beautiful rolling Devon countryside and coastline. Here, you will discover dramatic cliff-top views, picturesque villages and harbours and many quiet beaches where you can relax or fish.
Leigh Holiday Cottages offers eight single-storey holiday cottages which are all 4-star graded, by the national ’Visit Britain’ award scheme. There are four family cottages, which sleep four to five guests, and four smaller cottages, each sleeping two. Each one is tastefully furnished and fully-equipped for self-catering, with a high standard of comfort and cleanliness. All the cottages face south onto garden areas and well-kept lawns, with individual patios. Private parking is adjacent to, or nearby, each cottage and there is also a separate Visitors’ Parking area.
The Leighs is level and very private, and has only one entrance and exit. There is a permanent Warden who lives on site and can take care of any questions you may have to ensure your holiday is relaxing and memorable.
