Previous Eastcotte Reviews: Graham 10th Aug 2025 A beautiful and historic house set in an even more beautiful garden, in walking distance of the beach. Branscombe is a lovely village with many interesting walks, two pubs and a historic church. Jennifer Vera 29th Apr 2025 Eastcotte is a lovely place for a family get-together, or for a group of friends to enjoy each others' company. There is plenty of room for people to have their own space as well as spacious sitting and dining rooms.The house and gardens were enjoyed by all our family from age 3 to the eighty year olds ! Gordon 20th Apr 2025 Eastcotte proved to be an amazing place for three generations of our family to gather together for a wonderful holiday . Twelve of us, our three daughters, two husbands and five Grandchildren aged from three years to nineteen and two dogs had a great time in the house and garden. It was very interesting to read the history of the house, see the art work and many objects collected by Percy and Joan and to have the opportunity to stay in such a spacious, comfortable and obviously well-loved family home. We had great weather and were lucky to be able to walk to the beach, some of us braved the sea and enjoyed the sauna on the beach. The Sea Shanty is so convenient and serves excellent food. The garden and fire-pit were great and the older kids played football, basketball and table-tennis. Ronnie ran wild in the garden and we all enjoyed an early Easter Egg hunt and board games in the conservatory. The Masons Arms is a fantastic Pub and we had a delicious meal there, fantastic! Thankyou, Gordon and Bev MacDonnell and Family Frances 2nd Jun 2024 We were an extended family group 7 adults and five children 6-12 years of age on half term holiday. The children absolutely loved the outside space and spent hours exploring, playing at the tree house and football or in the basement space playing table tennis. We all loved the spacious comfortable family house with eclectic details and all the equipment needed to cater for our needs. The location was ideal - beautiful views from the house and walks to the sea and Branscombe Village 10 hilly minutes in either direction and cliff top walks signposted from just down the road. We had a wonderful week. Hester 18th Feb 2024 We loved our stay at Eastcotte. The house is beautifully decorated and unique, with breathtaking views of the sea; a perfect place to stay with a large group of friends. All rooms are very comfortable and the house was very warm, even in February. There is a washing and drying room, two fridges, a table tennis table in the basement, and the little bed in the master bedroom is large enough for an adult. The grounds of the house are also extensive, with lots of outdoor space which feels private. We plan to return!
