Seaton: A Gateway Town to the Jurassic Coast
Tucked
away in a corner of East Devon, is the beautiful,
unspoilt Axe Valley. At the mouth of the River Axe is the
friendly, coastal resort of Seaton.
The mile-long
beach at Seaton is excellent for water sports, from sailing
and swimming, to diving and windsurfing.
Seaton's
unique tramway runs inland, along the Axe Estuary, to the
medieval market town of Colyton and is perfect for birdwatchers,
transport enthusiasts or those who simply want to watch
the beautiful riverside scenery glide by. Next to the tramway
is the new Seaton Marshes Nature Reserve. The installation
of a viewing hide and wheelchair-friendly paths means this
beautiful area and its wildlife - wildfowl and wading birds
in winter; dragonflies and butterflies in summer - are now
easily accessible all year round.

Estuary.
The town
itself has many small shops including a greengrocer, fishmonger
and butcher, which have disappeared from so many other high
streets, which are perfect for a self-catering holiday.
There is also the Axe Valley Heritage Museum, which houses
a fine collection of local photographs, archaeological finds
and period costume.
If you
long for bygone days when life was slower and specialist
shops offered service with a smile, try exploring Seaton.
