Bear left onto Beer Road and follow this road which continues straight into New Road. Near the top of this hill turn left into Long Hill. The entrance to Westview Cottage will be found on the left hand side.

The Property:
Westview Cottage is a delightful character property, located in an elevated location with garden and lovely views over the village of Beer to the countryside in the distance.Believed to have been built in 1918, the cottage has many period features expected for a property of this age including parquet flooring, stripped wooden doors, picture rails, coving and deep skirting boards. The present owner has maintained the property to a high standard and over the last few years, renewed the kitchen, downstairs shower room/wc and first floor bathroom/shower room. There is also gas fired central heating throughout.The cottage which is within easy reach of the shops and the beach, has been successfully holiday let over the last 12 years through Jean Bartlett Holidays with the vendor having use for holidays also. However, the property would equally suit a permanent home.This cottage is a beautiful example of a period village property and must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated.
