About this property
Boasting simply stunning views over Cobb Harbour in Lyme Regis in Dorset, is this beautifully presented split-level apartment, The Lookout. Perfect for a family or couples travelling together, the apartment occupies a superb location within a short walk of the centre of Lyme Regis. The apartment forms part of a tasteful conversion of an impressive Victorian property and offers some delightful features such as wood flooring and original ceiling beams as well as an attractive woodburning stove in the sitting area and large windows, making it a truly inviting and light-filled space. Arranged over two floors, the elevated position of the apartment means that it provides some breath-taking views over Cobb Harbour and beyond. The stylish kitchen is fully fitted with everything needed to rustle up a feast for your family and the dining area is all ready for you to pull up a chair and enjoy spending quality time together eating and drinking.

Head out on foot and check out what Lyme Regis has to offer; from a delightful selection of shops, boutiques, cafes and restaurants, the harbour and beaches to places such as Lyme Regis Philpot Museum and Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium.

The Lookout is where happy holiday memories are made.
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!

Lovely welcome pack.

The only reason I havenât given it full marks was because the bed in the second bedroom is quite hard and uncomfortable. We are not used to that sort of bed. I suppose I would suggest a topper, which might make it more comfortable. We were able to pay for a weeks parking (£70) right next door to the lookout which was very useful.

We passed lots of lovely hours sitting at the breakfast bar/ window watching the ocean - beautiful! Clearly lots of thought and effort had gone into equipping The Lookout with amenities to ensure a successful holiday - the kitchen in particular had literally everything gadget / appliance you could ask for, and the TV set up was impressive! The welcome gift bag was a generous and thoughtful addition - thank you! In terms of feedback for improvements, the bed & mattress in the main bedroom (with ensuite) desperately needs replacing. I'm an average/athletic build chap (ie. Not overweight) but sleeping on the left side of the bed, I could literally feel the slats under my spine. The shower also needs a repair to allow it to be run colder - a hot shower isn't always welcomed after a long walk on a summer day! Finally, the listing should be more explicit re: the parking situation. Cobb Lane is a VERY steep hill about 1/4mile long, with the car park at the top, and the property at the bottom. You can only pay for 24hours at a time, so recommend using JustPark app to add more time each day rather than walking back and forth! (Also, £15 per day for parking soon mounts up. Maybe there's a deal to be struck with the owners of Undercliffe parking?)
