Beer

Published by admin under Last Minute Offers

The coastal village of Beer in East Devon is a must place to visit if you are staying at Longbridge House, it is a firm favourite with guests of all ages. Just a few minutes drive away it is easily found and has parking right in the village centre.

Beer has a huge range of history, with Smuggling right at the heart of it, in the 18th and 19th centuries most of the population were involved in someway, whether smuggling, or working for the authorities catching the smugglers. The plague of the 17th century and The Spanish Armada  also make up part of the history of this stunning village.

The village now has interesting shops, galleries, antiques and traditional pubs. The jewel in the crown must be the wonderful pebbled beach, with working fishing boats which are dragged up onto the beach, small wooden pleasure boats for hire and a few on the beach cafes which are of particular note.

Beer has its own micro climate, being in the bottom of a steep sided valley and in a small bay, which is protected from prevailing winds by Beer Head.
