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.

A holiday destination to savour!

It was so comfortable, the view is stunning and the owners have thought of everything. Our children loved the freedom of the grounds. We will be back.

Our only recommendation for small improvement would be more comfortable seating in the sitting room. The beds were extremely comfortable as were the facilities.

We, and our dogs, loved our stay. It was in such a special location, quiet and peaceful but near enough to many interesting and beautiful locations. The kitchen was very well equipped, as was the cottage itself. So much thought had gone into ensuring that we were provided with everything we could possibly need, and more. The garden was amazing, huge and very well kept, so we, and our dogs, spent a lot of time outside as we had perfect weather during our stay. The beds were very comfortable too and it was a bonus to have the sinks in each bedroom. The cottage was well laid out and ideal for guests and another bonus was the bag of goodies provided on our arrival, plus the milk in the fridge. We really did have a special stay. Thank you all.
