Why Visit Beer Village?
Beer Village is one of East Devon’s best-kept secrets—small but packed with charm. Steeped in fishing history and surrounded by dramatic coastal scenery, the village offers a mix of natural beauty, fascinating history, and relaxing seaside attractions.
Relax at Beer Beach
Beer Beach is the heart of the village—a stunning pebble beach framed by chalk cliffs and home to a working fishing fleet. Watch local fishermen haul in their catch or rent a traditional deckchair and soak up the peaceful atmosphere. The clear waters are perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, and kayaking.
Explore Beer Quarry Caves
Just a short walk from the village, the historic Beer Quarry Caves are a must-see. These vast underground caverns were hand-carved by generations of quarrymen and supplied the famous Beer Stone used in cathedrals across England. Guided tours bring this fascinating history to life.
Walk the South West Coast Path
Beer sits directly on the South West Coast Path, making it a fantastic base for coastal walks. Take in dramatic views over Lyme Bay, explore nearby Seaton or head towards the beautiful village of Branscombe for a real taste of East Devon’s countryside and coastline.
