Beach Shop

Tony and his team look forward to welcoming you to our beach shop located right on the
beach at Putsborough, its magnificent position is unrivalled.
The views from our Café and terrace area are fabulous, matched only by the quality of our
freshly prepared snacks and lunches. We are open every day from April until the end of
October, all weekends throughout the winter for that warm bowl of soup after walking the
dog and during the Christmas and February holidays.

We look forward to welcoming you.

The Pannier Market on Saturdays is a General Market is full of stalls which
display a great range of goods. It is a thriving market with a good atmosphere
which is well worth a visit. The unique row of butchers' shops still exists,
although fish and vegetable shops and a delicatessen have replaced some of the
butchers' businesses.

The West Country Cheese Co.
“We like to think we offer cheese that
makes life worth living, whether you’re a
cheese obsessed individual or just want a
treat for yourself for a special occasion or
gift for somebody special. Our pursuit of
quality cheese is possibly a little bit
obsessive which makes our Individual
cheeses always a treat”
