About this property
Centrally located in the bustling town of Lyme Regis in Devon, is 5 St Michaels House, a contemporary and well-furnished second-floor apartment. One of six apartments within the Georgian building, 5 St Michaels House offers far-reaching sea views along the Jurassic coastline taking in Golden Cap and Chesil beach on a clear day.
Well-positioned near an abundance of popular eateries, independent shops, and within walking distance of the famous Cobb harbour, seafront, gardens and beaches, perfect for those looking for an escape by the sea.
The apartment welcomes four guests, recommended for couples, friends and families alike. Use the open-plan living space as your social hub, to prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, dine, relax in front of the coal effect fire, or head outside to the balcony for alfresco dining and the chance to take in your beautiful surroundings and with some wonderful views over the town and coast. . Complete your nightly routine in the bathroom, housing both a bath with shower over, before retiring to one of two well-presented bedrooms, including a king-size and a twin.
Once you're ready to explore the town, dine out at Hix’s Oyster & Fish House, Robin Wylde or Tom’s Restaurants, all local favourites, before stocking up on the essentials at one of several local stores. A stone’s throw away you'll also arrive at Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium, whilst Lyme Regis Museum and Dinosaurland Fossil Museum are recommended for those who enjoy both history and archaeology.
On your travels, take a trip to the picturesque fishing village of Beer and amble around the art galleries or stop for a spot of lunch overlooking the beach and watch the fishermen unload their daily catch. Abbotsbury s also worth a visit, with its sub-tropical gardens or swannery offering a great day out. The South West coastal footpath is the perfect route for avid walkers, with Golden Cap, arguably the highest point on the south coast, offering the most stunning of coastal views. Make memories in Dorset with 5 St Michaels House as your abode.
The charming seaside town of Lyme Regis, which boasts a maze of winding streets lined with craft and antique stores, galleries, and cafes, has a lot to offer tourists. Take a stroll along the well-known Cobb causeway, which overlooks the historic harbour and offers fishing cruises, or go fossil hunting nearby. The picturesque coastal path provides fantastic walking options and breath-taking views of the Jurassic coast, while Lyme Bay's gently shelving dunes and clear seas make it the ideal place to unwind and rest. A wonderful vacation spot!

There are almost no consumables. Please provide plenty of washing up liquid, dish wash tabs and laundry powder. The soap in the bathroom was almost done when we arrived. The welcome basket was teabags and Prosecco! No milk though! The bath towels are small and not very good and there was only one tea towel. Crockery was a bare minimum of one of each item x 4 but in some cases not even 4 of each type of cutlery or glassware were present. There were no bin bags for rubbish. The water temperature runs hot and cold in the shower and the extractor fan needs attention or replacement as it just doesn't work. The wardrobe doors in the twin room are largely obstructed by the beds so you can't open them fully and have to shimmy down a tiny gap to access your clothes. At £1400 plus per week, these omissions/issues seem penny pinching. The view is so spectacular from the deck that people will rebook regardless but given the hosts display their own hotel details in the apartment perhaps they should add a bit more love and attention to No 5 too.

Allocated parking space, 5 minutes walk to the beach, lots of restaurants and shops nearby, and a great location to explore the Jurassic Coast. We would happily go back to this property, and explore some more. Lyme Regis is also beautiful, with great beaches too.

I have stayed at this property many times over the years and it is in one of the best locations overlooking the bay. the large outside space is an excellent facility, especially if you are feeling like having a lazy day. However, the only thing that lets the apartment down is that the paint on the walls, front door and skirtings is now looking very tired and is badly marked and scuffed, which gives a poor impression on arriving. The windows in the bedrooms need to be looked at. The sash window overlooking the car park is hard to open and if you do manage to get it open it won't stay open and closes under its own weight. The some of the windows in the side bedroom, wouldn't open at all. This might be an issue if the weather is hot. These are minor quibbles, but are the difference between a 4 and 5 star review.
