About the home
About a mile inland from Branscombe, nestled at the top of its own valley (badgers, deer, and kites regularly visit) with views over fields and woodland towards the sea, is this beautifully built, detached, New England-style house. Inside, everything is on a grand scale and carefully finished with hand-built oak staircases and floors, smart granite worktops and a specially commissioned, stained glass hall window. It is wonderfully light and spacious, cleverly designed so that all rooms have tantalising glimpses of the sea on a clear day. At the back of the house, a paved driveway leads down from a very quiet lane. To the front, an enclosed and very private, mainly lawned garden with paved sun terrace (table/chairs, gas barbecue) and shallow steps leading to lawn.
Inside, the house is one room deep and all rooms are accessed from the very impressive length-of- house hall. From the lobby, double doors into big, impressive living room with woodburner, TV/DVD/Blu-ray and, at the opposite end, French windows to the terrace. Four steps down to the rest of the hall and dining room (TV) with French windows to the terrace. At the end of the house, beautiful hand-built fitted kitchen/breakfast room (dishwasher, microwave, fridge-freezer with ice-maker, range cooker) with leather sofas, TV/Sky/DVD and doors to the garden and utility room (washing machine, tumble drier, sink); loo (washbasin).
The main staircase leads to four bedrooms – master double (6' bed or twin) with TV/DVD/Blu-ray, private balcony, dressing room with walk-in wardrobe and superb granite-fitted bathroom (suite with air bath with underwater lighting plus hand-shower, separate rainwater shower, his/hers washbasins, bidet); another double (6' bed or twin) with TV, private balcony and very swish en suite bathroom (suite with whirlpool bath plus bath-shower and hand-shower); and two twin (zip-linkable to 6' doubles, TVs). Family marble bathroom (suite with whirlpool bath and separate double shower). A second staircase leads to another single bedroom (4' bed) and separate shower-room (suite). Door under these stairs to the garage, now a games room (pool table, table tennis) and separate cloakroom with loo (washbasin). Stairgates. Damages Deposit £250. Arrival after 4pm.

The West Country / Devon region
East Devon: that is Devon east of the river Exe and Exeter - Devon's capital with superb cathedral and much else attractive. Here is the most smiling of lush farmland and most dramatically hilly, the easiest to see from a car because the lanes are less narrow, the hedges less high. Domed hills rise abruptly and steeply, baize-green fields to crowns of woods or sentinel beech trees, half-way up farmsteads like a children's-book idyll. Woodbury Common is a small high moor with heather and Scots pine trees and fine newish golf course. Exmouth is a resort with lots of sandy beach and boats. The Exe estuary is full of yachts and has one of Devon's prettiest villages, Lympstone, beside it. A shore of mainly pebbles keeps the area comparatively quiet, though the coast is attractive with white and red cliffs, pleasant, civilised towns like Sidmouth and Budleigh Salterton and villages like Beer and Branscombe. Its inland villages tend to be pretty: Broadhembury is special - and the view from Hembury Hill (fort) is sensational. Hardly anyone seems to visit the lovely Blackdown Hills - big beech woods, smart fields with thoroughbred horses - on its northern border. You can have flying lessons at Dunkeswell aerodrome and there is an excellent (flat) cycle track, punctuated by pubs, from Exeter beside the Exe estuary to the sea. The whole east Devon coast is called a 'World Heritage Coastline'.
The Branscombe area
Branscombe: one of the prettiest villages on the south coast (church, 2 excellent pubs, licensed restaurant, thatched cottages) with a fine pebbly beach, located at the meeting of two valleys or combes. Sidmouth, 3 miles. Lyme Regis (lovely seaside harbour town) and famous 'Jurassic' fossil coast, 10 miles.
