Another lovely stay at Millstones. It is always so clean and comfortable. Our first time in the winter but had a wonderful week despite the rain. The seascape in Lyme Bay was awesome. Great location and it was so nice to visit Lyme Regis, Bridport, West Bay, Sidmouth etc at such a quiet time. Can’t wait to go back.
