Location
Located on part of the world famous 'Jurassic Coast', Sidmouth is a delightful, unspoilt, genteel town situated at the mouth of the River Sid and along the lovely Sid Valley in East Devon. The town, which has retained much of its Regency and Victorian character, is well served by a range of amenities including both private and state schools, hospital, theatre, cinema, golf course, supermarkets and a town centre with a wealth of interesting, individual shops. Sidmouth is well placed for transport links, lying within 15 miles of Exeter and the M5 and within just 10 miles of Honiton and the A30 link road. Cottington Court is a development of 42 apartments, constructed around 1960, and set in fine communal gardens. The apartments are located off Cotmaton Road on the sought after, western side of Sidmouth, yet within a convenient 650 metres of the town centre and its attractive Regency esplanade.
