Hi Manpreet Kaur,
You are probably thinking of ne --- que which also means 'only' and requires a ne explétif.
La villa ne sera qu'à quelques pas de la plage
You don't need the 'ne' with seulement.
Bonne Continuation!
Why are we adding ne in front of seulement in the sentence la villa sera seulement à quelques pas de la plage?

Not seeing where you are putting the 'ne'.. is it before the 'sera'.. which would work, or the 'seulement'.. which would seem strange?
