About this property
Crays Cottage is a deceptively spacious riverside cottage within easy reach of the beach and shops – a lovely base for a relaxing holiday. Located near the heart of this unspoilt Dorset seaside town, a perfect choice for those seeking a seaside cottage with all the amenities on the doorstep.
Within a ten minute walk, guests can meander down to Lyme Regis following the quiet river Lim to the bustling sea front and promenade.
Lyme Regis itself is a truly fantastic place. Situated on the magnificent unesco Jurassic Coast, it's known as the pearl of Dorset and upon visiting, it's easy to see why. A famous spot for fossil hunters worldwide, it also sits on the South West Coast Path and offers a whole host of wonderful hikes and walks nearby.
Lyme Regis' sheltered south-facing beaches are safe for both children and water sport enthusiasts, with great fishing and leisure boat opportunities available from the Cobb harbour. It has a fantastic food and music scene and is often used as a prime filming location.
There are also vast amounts of festivals and events happening in the town throughout the year. Some of the bigger ones include the jazz and folk festivals, Food Rocks, Regatta & Carnival Week, Guitars on The Beach, and Lifeboat Week which offers a week of fun, games, music and displays for all the family. Of course, there are also loads of smaller events happening as well!
