Shanghai is a beautifully presented "arts and crafts" house that has recently been modernised to retain many of the original features of this particular style of architecture.  Situated in a truly enviable location on the east side of the village just a few minutes walk from the shops and beach (a little longer coming back up quite a steep, but not too long, hill, ideal for burning off those extra holiday calories)! The house has a wonderful warm and welcoming atmosphere having been thoughtfully furnished with every last detail to make this a lovely holiday home from home. The stunning, panoramic views, over the village roof tops, surrounding countryside and out to sea make this a property one would never want to leave. All rooms are spacious, bright and airy with large picture windows and individual colour schemes throughout.

15th November 2011:

Just a note to say how much we enjoyed this last weekend at Shanghai Cottage in Beer. We are a group of ex-teaching colleagues who go away for a weekend of (gentle) walking, card playing and reminiscing each autumn, and we all agreed that Shanghai was the most comfortable and well-equipped let that we have taken.
We were very lucky with the weather, and after a walk to Branscombe and back on Saturday morning we were able to spend the afternoon in shirtsleeves on the patio with a glass or two enjoying the sunshine and the view.
Thank you for your efficiency and the comprehensive information that you provided, should we decide to return to East Devon again we will certainly contact you.
 

* Short Break prices shown are for 3 nights only, please call for 4 night prices if required. Short Breaks are available from the end of September up to the final May bank holiday, or at the owners' discretion for a last minute booking at other times of the year. Unfortunately it would be most unusual for us to be in a position to consider a short break at peak holiday times, such as the October and February half terms or over the Christmas and New Year periods.
