Eastgrove is situated on the Rousdon Estate, approximately 350 acres of private grounds, which includes parkland and farmland, woodland, undercliff and beach on East Devon's Jurassic coastline, much of which is designated a World Heritage Site. The location is spectacular, an elevated rural position on the coast which was purchased and developed in 1870 by the MP Sir Henry Peek, who built a grand house and supporting buildings, which have been carefully converted into residences. Lyme Regis is about three miles east and easily caters for most day to day needs, and the centres of Exeter and Dorchester are within easy striking distance. There is a mainline station at Axminster (train time to London is under 3 hours), River Cottage Canteen and Shop and Hix Oyster and Fish House, at Lyme Regis, within a 10 minute drive.
