About this property

CRABPOT COTTAGE IN BEER, DELIGHTFUL 1 BED HOUSE, SEA VIEWS & 50 METRES FROM BEAC

Crabpot Cottage is an immaculately presented, characterful property containing everything a couple needs for a relaxing break at the seaside including sea views and the best location in Beer. For all stays we offer a free parking permit and unlimited WIFI.
Available all year round, this property offers stays of 7 days or more, with Saturday changeovers, as well as short breaks and flexible arrival days in the low season (October to April).

One of only 3 houses within Beach Court, the property was originally built in 1903 and used as a holiday home for the renowned opera singer Dame Clara Butt. In 1918 the property became a hotel before being converted in the 1990s into a small collection of houses and apartments which can be found today.
Crabpot Cottage offers guests a holiday home in simply one of the best locations in Beer. 50 metres from the beach and slipway, this sunny, south facing cottage has a large double bedroom with Beer stone window seat offering views down to the sea. The room features a King size bed with white Egyptian cotton bedding and 24inch flat screen, walk in wardrobe. Also upstairs is the large bathroom with electric shower, bath, wash basin and WC.
Downstairs the cottage has a gorgeous cosy sitting room and dining area facing the slipway and beach. Comfortably furnished to a high standard including a 32inch flat screen HDTV with Amazon fire stick and a contemporary dining area. There is also a well equipped kitchen with new electric cooker, fridge, microwave, washing machine and modern appliances throughout.
ROINTE digital radiators and towel rails have been installed throughout and ALL ELECTRICITY, HEATING (timed radiators), BED LINEN AND TOWELS ARE INCLUDED IN PRICE as we think our guests don’t want to worry about these things when on holiday!
We love Beer and look forward to sharing this magical part of the world with you. We’re on hand to make your holiday as enjoyable as possible and can advise on things to do and see if you wish.

Great location!
Love the position of this property, and such a great space, although having revisited it could do with a spruce up now as it is getting a little tired and a little more attention to detail on the cleaning!

Excellent location
Lovely well equipped cottage close to the beach. However, it was too cold for us. The only heating was a radiator in the lounge, kitchen and bedroom and a towel rail in the bathroom. You have no control over the heating as radiators are locked. The owners did come out and extend the times that the radiators were on but you really needed a extra heater so you could adjust the heating to suit yourselves and the weather. It was a shame as it is a fantastic cottage with comfy bed and sofa and we we had no problem cooking Christmas dinner. heating

Wonderful
A lovely stay in your cottage. Although very small, a really lovely place to stay. Cottage is fully equipped and very comfy and warm. Location wise, you’d be hard pressed to find better. The beach is a stones throw. The pubs - the Anchor (a green king pub) and the Barrel of Beer (lovely wet pub) and I highly recommend the Smugglers kitchen for dinner. The Bay Inn for lunches. Thank you for letting us stay in your gorgeous cottage.

Amazing Cottage in a beautiful village.
Crabpot Cottage is in an ideal location in the village. It is so close to the beach which is visible from the front door. Everything one might need is provided which is so lovely of the owners to think of even little important things. On entering the cottage it immediately felt homely & smelt so clean. Bedlinen & towels were top notch, lovely fluffy towels & a nice warm radiator in the bathroom to put them on. Lovely welcome touch with Biscuits & Fudge. Hubby & i loved staying here as it was so cosy. we will definitely return sooner than later as we were sorry to have to leave. Absolutely first class. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage x

Crabpot Cottage
Crabpot Cottage is ideally placed for the beach and amenities. Everything one might need is provided. Downsides: Promised Welcome pack of local produce not provided only a pack of fudge and biscuits. Cottage, particularly bed linen smelt stale.

Lovely Cottage
New Year meet up with friends. All staying in different cottages in Beer. We’ve chosen this cottage before and it’s beautiful. Great location. Sadly Beer as a village has gone backwards since Covid with the Dolphin Hotel shut and restaurants and chip shops not opening post Christmas. Still a great location though.

Lovely cottage
Cottage had everything we could ask for. Plenty to do in Beer. Parked the car and it never moved all week. So many lovely walks and the locals were so friendly. Relaxed and clean place to stay. Cannot wait to go back!! Oh and our two little dogs loved it too. Met some lovely like minded people. The Deli is so good and all three pubs were friendly and dog friendly too. Lady in post office was so helpful when I had a parcel delivered but it went to wrong Crabtree Cottage.

Delightful cottage in a wonderful location.
Crabpot Cottage was everything we could have asked for. The bed was really comfortable, enabling a great nights sleep. The bathroom is very roomy, offering a heated towel rail. We enjoyed cooking some of our meals in the very well equipped kitchen. The location was perfect. We would love return one day to this beautiful place.

Lovely cottage in fantastic location
Loved the beach yards away from the cottage which is in the pretty village of Beer with fantastic walks and scenery - we loved Beer so much we only used the car once in a week - 3 pubs and lots of eateries and we enjoyed breakfast on the beach from Chappels several mornings although you have to be aware of the seagulls but worth it ! Watched the fishing boats coming ashore in the evening. Enjoyed the live music in the Dolphin and the best bit was we had scorching weather every day all week - the most perfect relaxed holiday and most places dog friendly which was good for us and our dog. We definitely intend going back to lovely Crabpot Cottage in the future. Also lovely independent shops in the village and craft fayre at the weekends.
