Situation - Moorcourt Lodge occupies a beautifully elevated position with sweeping views toward the sea, offering the tranquillity of a secluded setting while remaining wonderfully close to the vibrant heart of Sidmouth. Positioned just above the bustle of the town, Moorcourt Lodge combines the best of both worlds: a peaceful atmosphere with convenient access to Sidmouth’s charming offerings.
Sidmouth, a picturesque Regency town along East Devon’s rolling coastline, is known for its long esplanade, serene beaches, and exquisitely tended public gardens. A stroll through town reveals elegant streets lined with boutique shops, independent cafés, and inviting pubs that embody the town’s timeless charm. This coastal town has become a haven for those drawn to a relaxed lifestyle enriched by natural beauty and a warm, welcoming community. Sidmouth’s amenities include a cinema, theatre, and an array of recreational facilities, from swimming and sailing to cricket, rugby, tennis, and golf, making it a perfect choice for outdoor enthusiasts. The town’s pebbled and sandy beach, framed by the dramatic red sandstone cliffs of the Jurassic Coast, offers an ideal setting for both relaxation and water sports.
As part of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and located on the renowned Jurassic Coast - A World Heritage Site - Sidmouth offers residents and visitors access to some of the UK’s most scenic walking routes along the South West Coast Path. This trail provides endless opportunities to explore the stunning coastline, with breath taking cliff-top views and secluded beaches along the way.
To the west, the Cathedral City of Exeter is a comfortable commute, providing an extensive range of amenities and direct rail links to Paddington and Waterloo, as well as convenient access to the M5 motorway and Exeter International Airport. With its seamless blend of coastal serenity, natural splendour, and historic charm, Sidmouth, and specifically Moorcourt Lodge, captures the essence of Devon’s most desirable seaside lifestyle.
