Situated only 2½ miles from Branscombe beach, in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and on the Jurassic Coast, this beautifully appointed property makes the perfect holiday home for all seasons. It is an ideal base to explore the spectacular scenery of the World Heritage coastline. The picturesque fishing port of Beer is close at hand where motorboat hire or mackerel fishing trips can be arranged, and it also offers good shops and restaurants. Sidmouth, Seaton and Lyme Regis are all within 10 miles. Nestling on the south-facing aspect of a tranquil wooded valley, the panoramic views from the lodge are magnificent, giving year round appeal. Converted from a flint barn and farm outbuildings this detached holiday home provides comfortable and spacious accommodation with classic rural character. A large sauna (eight persons) and fitness room has been installed. Outside the paved terrace provides an excellent vantage point to observe the valley’s wildlife. A relaxing plunge in the hot tub can be enjoyed at any time, especially at night for star gazing. The lodge is a starting point for a variety of country walks. Blackbury Camp, an iron-age fort, can be visited on the way down to the sea. The coastal path will take visitors through spectacular scenery, much of which is managed by the Natural Trust. Alternatively a trip on the old electric tram railway departs from nearby Colyton, along the Axe estuary marshes to Seaton to enjoy the traditional seaside atmosphere. Lyme Regis offers an interesting variety of shops, restaurants and inns around its famous harbour, The Cobb. The regional capital and cathedral city of Exeter is about a 40-minute drive. Shop 2 miles.

Stockham lodge is outstanding in every way , the views are breathtaking in every direction and the wildlife is on your doorstep. The accommodation is spotless, the owners are at hand but not intrusive. We were a large family of all ages and each of us enjoyed our time in the well kept hot tub, gym and sauna, the fresh warm scones , homemade jam and cream on arrival are a lovely idea . The photos of this property don’t do it justice at all . We will be returning.

3 generations ageing from 4 to 75 years. We had a lovely 3 days over the Christmas period at this beautiful cottage. Everything you need and more is provided and the owners are on hand if needed. On arrival Nigel was there to greet us and show us around, there was also a lovely welcome pack. The cottage is so warm and homely, enough space for us all to enjoy the hot tub was ready to go which we all enjoyed. The WiFi is touch and go but to be honest it was only the teenager that missed it. We all enjoyed our time together and would recommend this property without hesitation. Thank you

We were so looking forward to getting away, and we were not disappointed. Stockham Lodge is excellent, the bedrooms are generous with good ensuite facilities. Nigel and Janet the owners are delightful and we were welcomed with home made scones, cream and a bottle of wine! We had a German Shepherd with us and she enjoyed long walks into the woods and along the many paths.
We would certainly return. The only downside was that the accessible room on the ground floor although there is a door from the path outside, the internal access was via a two sets of steps. It was ok for our friend as she can stand and pull herself up but a fully disabled guest would have a problem - but it was a minor issue for us and everything else made up for it!

We had a lovely time staying here, it’s in a lovely location and the cottage is gorgeous however we would not book again for the following reason. We booked this cottage because it said it had a ground floor wet room and my husband is in a wheelchair so we thought it would be perfect. Unfortunately it didn’t mention everything else was on a lower level so it made things a bit harder to get him to that lower level as the pathway is very steep for a wheelchair & there are steep steps to get inside all doors. Please mention that it’s not suitable for a wheelchair user but it’s good for someone who can walk but needs a wet room.

This is an outstanding property.
This is an outstanding property. The owners are delightful and helpful without being intrusive at all. The quality of the bedding was superb, often this is a touch often forgotten, but the attention to detail was spot on. The accommodation is fabulous with 4 en-suite bedrooms and all huge.
If you want peace and tranquility look no further.

Stockham Lodge
Lovely property in a stunning location - the owners were extremely welcoming - there was a cream tea and prosecco waiting for us!
There were a few issues in the house which the owner dealt with straight away. The shower doors in one bedroom seem a bit rickety and it was very cold in there as the radiator wasn't working properly. The door from the lounge into the garden is extremely difficult to open so could use some adjustment. Also in the property description says TV in every bedroom. However there was no TV in one bedroom, and all the others were not normal TVs, they didn't work as no aerial, you could only play DVDs in them. So perhaps change this description as we were expecting our two elderly visitors and children to be able to watch some TV in their rooms at times. There was a TV in one living room but with a large party it is useful to have more than one.
Aside from this I would highly recommend the property. It really is such a beautiful spot, so peaceful and very safe for our dogs to play in the garden. Very well equipped with a good size living room and dining room for a large group.

We are a group of 10 friends in our 30s (ish!) who go away for a weekend every Spring.
We are a group of 10 friends in our 30s (ish!) who go away for a weekend every Spring. We always go to a property in the South West and this is one of the best properties we have ever stayed in! The house was cosy & comfortable - the perfect size for us.
Although the kitchen is relatively small for the size of the property, it's very well equipped and the dining room had plenty of space to manoeuvre.
The views over the rolling Devon hills are super relaxing, as are the hot tub and sauna.
The internet connection is pretty rubbish - but we don't go on a rural holiday to use the internet! Nigel also warned us in advance that this was the case. The Sky box and TV meant that we could enjoy the 6 Nations Rugby and that's all that we needed :)
The underfloor heating was an absolute treat in a chilly March, the showers & bathrooms all clean, and the beds comfortable.
Thank you for a lovely stay.
