Masons Arms  

On England’s Jurassic Coast, tucked into the picture‑perfect village of Branscombe near Seaton. Steps from Branscombe Beach and a short drive to Beer Quarry Caves, Hooken Beach and the Dorset and East Devon Coast. Ideal base for coastal walks and sea-breeze mornings.

A 14th‑century thatched inn with timber frames, low beamed ceilings, pine cladding and a huge roaring log fire. Bedrooms feel cosy and stylish and include flat-screen TVs, private bathrooms with designer toiletries and hair dryers, plus desks and coffee/tea makers. The cooking is classy yet simple, and the interiors show authentic country character.

On-site restaurant and a lively bar pouring locally brewed bitters and fine wines. Garden and terrace to take in the views and fresh sea air. Free self parking and a terrace for slow evenings after long walks along the coast.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property. In-room desks and the option to request irons/ironing boards. Front desk staffed during limited hours.

Satisfying meals in the restaurant, from relaxed country lunches to special evening plates. Local produce and Devon ales feature on the menu. Wrap up your day with a drink at the bar/lounge beside the log fire.
