Location, location, location is certainly the case with this two-bed, deluxe apartment in Seaton. It’s great for families, friends or a couple, superbly positioned as it is for this lively town’s shops, amenities and shingle beach. If you like to leave the car on holiday, you have a choice of car parks to use the parking permit provided and you’re near bus stops to get around town or further afield. Relax amid the stylish interiors of this spacious apartment or just use it as a jumping-off point for exploring more of the jaw-dropping Jurassic Coast.

This single-storey apartment is part of a stunning conversion from the 1870s ‘Counting House’ and is near the town centre and Clock Tower. The main entrance is shared with stairs up to the second floor. Light and airy, it has attractive oak flooring throughout the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, complete with a bay window. A contemporary kitchen on one end allows you to have breakfast or fully self-cater, with a modern dining table for four and a sociable and comfortable lounge area offering distant sea views and an ornamental fireplace. For sleeping, there’s one king-size and one double bedroom, both of which are elegantly furnished, sharing the contemporary-styled bathroom.

Seaton Beach is within 100 metres. Or sit savouring an ice cream in Seafield Gardens or the larger Cliff Field Gardens, before wending your way down to admire the colourful beach huts. Walk to the small Axmouth Harbour the other end (1 mile) of this beach. If the pebbles get too much, opt for the Esplanade. Check out the town’s shops, grab a coffee and maybe take a ride on the Tramway. Or just get your boots on and hike the 2 miles along the South West Coast Path to picture-postcard Beer.
