Sustainable Property
Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
The house was extremely welcoming to us all, 8 adults and 6 children. Unfortunately the weather was very poor during our stay but it didn't stop us from exploring the area and the convenient location of the house.

The house is beautiful, so well equipped, tastefully decorated, comfortable and huge and suited the needs of 16 friends and family perfectly. Such a great position too, with the beach just across the road, along with a crazy golf course and a very friendly bowling club.

We were a party of 7 adults who all worked for RMC and this year was our 20th year we have met up.
What an exceptional house to celebrate that event.

Highly recommended and it is so well stocked of all needs to cook for everyone.
We all had fantastic sleeps in the comfortable beds and most rooms had on suite facilities.

"Great location, with some lovely original features remaining and generously sized rooms which were perfect for our whole family of 15 to have some time away together."
We could not hear each other in the different rooms in the evening, even with a young baby and toddler, so we slept well.
The owner was not far away and on the end of the phone if we needed it.
The playground opposite was very handy and good for small and slightly bigger kids. Sadly we did not get to try out the crazy golf facilities, as the day we wanted to play, it was waterlogged due to heavy rain.
The only downside for us, due to having dogs, was that there was no garden. They were also not allowed in the green space opposite either... which was a problem when they prefer doing their business on grass! But they survived.
The kids are already asking when we can go back.

"Bay Tree House is just lovely!"
We were a group of 9 ladies and there's room for double that. The owner had thought of everything... even down to one of our party having a sore stomach and there were hot water bottles in one of the cupboards. All the rooms are tastefully decorated and there's even an annexe type space in the attic with a kitchen, shower room and lounge area ... It'd be perfect if you have extended family and have older teenagers who like to be away from the parents. The host left us everything we needed and even a bottle of fizz and some crisps. The view is also stunning overlooking the bowling green and beach. We did a walk to Beer and a bit further on and the countryside is beautiful. Would recommend 100%!

"We cannot fault the Bay Tree."
We were a group of 13 friends and the property more than exceeded our expectations. We loved the location and how close it was to the beach. (literally across the road). The house was spotless and very well maintained. The kitchen had everything you could ever imagine utensil wise and so much crockery which was great. Every room was beautifully decorated and we loved the local artwork. The house benefits from so many bathrooms. We really enjoyed the outdoor seating area where we sat after a long walk enjoying tea and cake. The lounge and dining room are two big rooms and were both a great size for our large party. We didn't use the top floor but would be a great space for children/teenagers to hng out in and have their own space. We had the funniest game of mini golf which is right outside the house. Parking is easy either at the rear or outside the front we had 5 cars and didn't encounter any problems parking. We highly recommend fish and chips from 'frydays' which is a bit hidden along the front, but they were amazing and we enjoyed them on the beach one evening while watching the sun go down and the fisherman on the beach. We walked to Beer and Branscombe one day which was a lovely scenic clifftop walk with amazing views and enjoyed a really nice lunch in the Anchor pub in Beer. We took the tram to Colyton which was so much fun and enjoyed the walk back to Seaton along the river and through the wetlands nature reserve. Seaton is a great base with lots of amenities close by to the house. We would definitely return again and give it a 10 star review! The owner is lovely and and on hand if you need anything.

"Absolutely wonderful place to stay - the town of Seaton is a small, enclosed, and idyllic town."
But the house was large and welcoming. Perfectly fitted for our family's winter stay.
All amenities were there. A beautiful house, large enough to easily accommodate our thirteen strong party and then some if needed. Managed to host a pre-Christmas dinner using the utensils at our disposal and a Tesco superstore down the road. Parking was easy. View was splendid. Facilities were clean. Tens all around.
Only thing to say would be that a hot tub could be fitted in the back - really only a suggestion in jest as we found not a fault!

The location for a family holiday is perfect - opposite the crazy golf, 50 yards from the tennis courts and 5 minutes from the beach. The sea gets deep very quickly so not a good beach for tinies. Also it is shingles so no sand castles! Lovely cliff walks from the house and dog friendly. A photo of the back would be helpful as there is a partly covered in area for eating. No garden.
