About Beech Cottage

Beech is one of St Gabriel’s Cottages, a row of holiday homes on the site of a former hamlet. Situated on the Golden Cap estate, the views from the cottage are outstanding. 

With the South West Coast Path directly outside the cottage, walking routes are predictably impressive. Enjoy a day scaling the cliffs along the Jurassic Coast.  

Down at sea level, the area plays host to lots of family-friendly beaches and secluded coves. Why not try your hand at fossil hunting? There are still countless treasures to be found strewn along the beach.
