Looking Out To Sea and Pondering!

Explore Sidmouth and the surrounding area during your stay at 9 Riverside!

The charming town centre of Sidmouth is just a few steps away from the house. You'll find plenty of independent shops to browse through, as well as a great selection of bars and restaurants. Don't miss The Swan, our favorite pub, which is just across the car park.

Take a leisurely stroll along The Esplanade and soak up the stunning sea views. If you're feeling adventurous, try some of the outdoor activities on offer, such as walking, horse riding, cycling, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. Chris is a keen shore fisherman and may have some helpful tips for you.

Walking is a popular activity, and there's an OS map in the house for your reference. We recommend walking the cliff to the west of Beer or heading west out of Sidmouth up Peak Hill for stunning views.

In addition to its natural beauty, Sidmouth has plenty of amenities to keep you entertained. Visit the indoor swimming pool, cinema, and museum, or check out the popular Sidmouth Toy Museum. Don't miss the nearby Donkey Sanctuary, a hit with both kids and adults.

And for the little ones, a new play area opened just 100m from the house on February 1st, 2023, complete with a zip wire and climbing structures.
