About this property

With a view to the stunning architecture of St Michael and St George’s Catholic Church, this former gardener’s house offers a wonderful base for your Jurassic coast adventure. Close to the town centre and boasting a wonderful living area and garden, Hernelee Cottage is ideal for both a family and group of adults alike. Marvel at the beautiful exterior of this traditional detached house before entering into the property, making yourself at home in the fantastic sitting room where an ornamental traditional fireplace is complemented by quirky green wallpaper and red sofas, and there is a fantastic adjoining snug with a conservatory roof, great for morning coffee as you plan the day ahead of you, both with double doors opening up onto the garden. Cook up a storm in the spacious kitchen, a great place for family cooking and baking, before serving your masterpiece in the stylish dining room with double doors opening onto the garden. Upstairs you will find three bedrooms and a large shower-room where you can enjoy a refreshing soak before settling down for the night, beginning with a king-size room with pale blue walls reminiscent of the seaside and summer skies, and two double rooms, one with fantastic quirky wallpaper and tasteful furniture and the other with fresh white walls and stylish décor, as well as a separate WC with wallpaper depicting ships on the ocean. Outside, a large garden offers a view of the town, where you can dine al fresco on the patio or sunbathe with a book on the grass, a perfect space to enjoy the seaside air. The local town of Lyme Regis is one where you will never be short of activities to fill your days, so why not walk down from the property’s convenient location and indulge in local produce at one of the many eateries or visit the hand made craft and art shops? The Jurassic coast is home to many fantastic beaches where you can enjoy a stroll in the sea breeze, watersports and of course, hunting for fossils amongst the rocky shores, beginning with the close by Monmouth Beach and Lyme Regis Fossil Beach, where you will be able to see what treasures you can discover. There is also the option of two museums, the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum and Lyme Regis Museum, as well as the fantastic Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium and walks alongside the picturesque River Lym. Make a holiday to remember with a stay at the beautiful Hernelee Cottage.

The delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis has much to offer its visitors, boasting a maze of narrow streets filled with craft and antique shops, galleries and cafes. Take a stroll along the world-famous Cobb causeway overlooking the ancient harbour, where fishing trips can be enjoyed, or try your hand at fossil hunting in the area. The scenic coastal path offers excellent walking opportunities and spectacular views of the stunning Jurassic coast, whilst the gently shelving sands and sparkling waters of Lyme Bay provide the perfect place in which to relax and unwind. A holiday destination to savour!
