"A wonderful place, clean, homely."
We loved our stay & we loved Lyme Regis. Thank you
Delighted you had a great stay! Property Owner

"Beautiful cottage centrally located to Lyme."
Blissful river running around property. Great size rooms with lots of storage. Downstairs bathroom is stunning and it’s ideally having laundry facilities. Would recommend the cottage to everyone. The only downfall is the parking being so far away from the cottage.

"My mum’s next door neighbour used to own this cottage and we have stayed many times over the years - the last time being15 years ago!"
!!! It was lovely to return to the cottage after such a long period of time and find that although it has been modernised it still retains all of its original charm. We had a wonderful week at the cottage which was spotlessly clean, welcoming and very comfortable. A much appreciated welcome pack awaited us and set the tone for what proved to be a very happy holiday! Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage with us - we will most definitely be back!!
How interesting that you have a connection to the cottage! We look forward to your return visit! Property Owner

"No shampoo or body wash, no cloths washing soap, the washer did not work till I pulled it out from the wall and unplugged it, waited and plugged it back in."
Great location and clean and pleasant.

"Disappointing to arrive with a bag of dirty linen in tbe double room from ..."
Disappointing to arrive with a bag of dirty linen in tbe double room from previous visitors which we had to move and there were other bags in the property which I think should have been removed ( one on top of a wardrobe and one in boiler cupboard I contacted Sykes but no reply Also water was coming down a pipe in upstairs shower as well which reported to Sykes with email with no reply
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about the linen bag being missed. We would have been more then happy to resolve this for you but we have no trace of any communication from yourself. We will attend to look into the pipe. Thank you once again. The Lyme Bay Team. Property Owner

"We enjoyed our stay here (2 adults and 2 children)."
A lovely and well maintained cottage that had everything that we needed. We particularly enjoyed the sun room and bolcany and it was nice to be able to use the shared garden with private patio area. Lovely bathrooms too! It’s a beautiful short walk along the river into Lyme Regis and we appreciated having use of the parking permit for the carpark on Hill Rd as it took away the anxiety of knowing where to park and saved us some money! We couldn’t find a key to the bedroom window which we wanted to lock overnight due to having small children (but appreciate we could have been looking in the wrong place). We couldn’t get live TV working on the main television whilst we were there, but this didn’t take away from our enjoyment as we watched the Olympics via iplayer. A beautiful cottage and very well equipped cottage.
Delighted you had a happy holiday! We all love the balcony space with the beautiful view and river sounds. I’ve spoken to the local office about the TV - so I understand all is now in hand. Thank you Property Owner

"Location of this property is fabulous - in the heart of Lyme Regis but cleverly secluded and quiet."
Well-appointed and parking permit is appreciated. We had a great time. The TVs were not tuned in and we couldn’t resolve. Lyme Bay Holidays didn’t resolve our issue either. Despite requests, the only responses we received were electronic communications saying it was a busy period, sorry they hadn’t got to us and did we still want our issue sorted. Not really good enough. TV wasn’t that important but hopefully holiday makers with a more significant issue were dealt with.
Thank you so much for the feedback and so glad you enjoyed the location. I’ll follow up the TV issue with Lyme Bay. Thanks again Property Owner

"Had a great holiday in this well maintained cottage set in a quiet corner with garden views and a small river running by which adds to its charm."
It’s very handy for getting into Lyme Regis. Just a ten minute stroll by a footpath which follows the river. Parking is nearby at Hill road which is aptly named as the road up to the car park is quite steep but is free with the parking permit supplied. As commented by others the sofas are for loungers with long seats which would suit longer legged people. Otherwise the cottage has everything you need. The only other comment we would make is regarding the stairs. The lack of a hand rail can make you feel a bit uneasy especially if you are in later years. We would definitely rent the cottage again in the future as we liked the quiet location and the standards of the property.
Thank you for your comments. We’re having a think about your stair rail comment. Property Owner

"A lovely, well maintained cottage within easy walking distance to the seafront at Lyme."
The cottage is of a high quality and sitting on the balcony listening to the stream with a glass or two is idyllic. Would definitely come again
Thank you very much for the feedback. The balcony is a restful place with our favourite river view. Property Owner
-
"EXCELLENT ALL round - great location, well equipped to a very high standard, well laid out a very beautiful home - the only downside was we had to leave!"
Will definitely return though
Thank you for your feedback and so very pleased that you had an excellent stay! Property Owner

"We absolutely loved the cottage."
The only thing I want to mention is the sofas. Looked lovely but not very comfortable. Everything else was exactly as we’d hoped. Such a pretty, cosy cottage in a peaceful and pretty spot so close to the town. Would love to visit again.
Glad to hear you will be visiting again! Property Owner
-
"Lovely, peaceful, very high standard of accommodation."
Clean with lots of information about appliances heating etc. cosy and comfortable two bathrooms, short walk into Lyme a bit of a hill to the car park which was no problem to us and you can park nearby to unload your car. Would love to retire somewhere like this and would recommend to friends and family.
Glad you had a comfortable stay! Thank you for your recommendation. Property Owner

"Beautiful cottage, definitely come again"
Thank you! Delighted you’ll be back! Property Owner

"Lymbrook Cottage is a superb place to stay when visiting Lyme Regis."
The car park that you utilise the parking permit for is only five minutes walk away, with the town and sea a further five. A good choice of eateries and shops abound in the town. The cottage is the star of the show however, with its cleanliness, warmth, comfort and attention to detail. The owner has done a particularly good job of supplying facilities and all the information that you need. It is certainly been one of the best that we have used and we would recommend it wholeheartedly to any of our friends. Try it. You won't be disappointed.
Thank you much for this detailed feedback. We are delighted you enjoyed the cottage and your comments will be helpful to future visitors. Property Owner

Thank you for your review and feedback, much appreciated! Property Owner

"A lovely property - tastefully renovated & decorated and within easy walking distance of shops, cafés and the seafront."

"It's our second holiday at 1 Lymbrook."
We really enjoyed our stay despite the weather - the cottage is excellent - very well equipped and to a high standard. The location by the river is lovely and good for the river side walk into town. Thankyou :-)
Delighted you enjoyed your stay! Hope the sun shines next time ;-) Property Owner

"We didn’t want to leave!"
What an idilic setting. Spotlessly clean, well equipped, very comfortable beds. Scenic walk into the town. I definitely want to return.
Thank you for your kind comments - we feel the same! Look forward to welcoming you back again. Property Owner
-
"Lovely position, very quiet except for the sound of the stream!"
We enjoyed our stay but we felt it was too expensive. We are disenchanted with the town we love. The holiday homes have spoilt the town, that now has no services for the people who are residents. And everything is over priced.
-
"The cottage was lovely and cosy and in an idyllic position, a 10 minute walk to the seafront."
It was very clean and well presented. Parking was no problem with a permit for a very nearby car park. We will definitely return for another visit.
So pleased to hear you enjoyed the cottage and it’s location. Glad the permit came in handy! We look forward to welcoming you back! Property Owner

"Beautiful cottage in lovely peaceful location next to Brook but only 10 minute walk to shops, pubs, restaurants and beach."
Spotlessly clean, warm and very comfortable. Looking forward to booking again next year.
Glad you had a cosy stay in the comfy cottage! Really pleased that you are planning to come back. Property Owner

"We really enjoyed our stay."
The cottage is in a lovely location and by the path for river- side walk into town. We can't fault the cottage, so cosy, clean and well equipped to a high standard. Thankyou so much, we will stay again.
That’s great to hear you’re planning to come back and visit the ducks on the Brook. We look forward to welcoming you back to Lymbrook. Property Owner

"We have been customers of LBH for many years and this cottage is up there with the others, comfortable and peaceful."
The river that runs past it adds to the peace.
Thank you for your feedback. The sense of peace can be very special- glad you enjoyed it. Property Owner

"Spotlessly clean and so well equipped and furnished with taste,one of the best holiday let’s we have stayed in."
We are from the older generation 80+ so would just pass comment on a couple of minor things.The step down to the downstairs bathroom would benefit from some form of marker for awareness sake.Struggled with TV access instructions(we admit to being behind the times in tech terms) but we’re helped by your office. None of this spoiled the lovely quiet haven of peace.Great stay Anne King
Apologies for the late response. We have totally taken your comments on board. There are now several signs and tape to indicate the step to the bathroom. The TV facilities have been upgraded - upstairs and down. Your return would be most welcome! Property Owner

The property
Emerging from a beautiful garden bursting with flowers beside the river Lym, a spectacular blue painted former 19th century mill workers’ cottage has been renovated to a high standard.
1 Lymbrook Cottage offers the perfect base or a trip to Dorset, great for families and groups of adults.
Be welcomed into a homely sitting room with fresh décor and a traditional woodburning stove to warm your feet after a long journey, where you will be delighted to find a welcome hamper of essentials and treats and notice the original window seat of the cottage offers a spot where you can admire the garden even on a rainy day.
A kitchen/diner will make any budding chef eager to try out cooking with some of the local produce, using the ample amenities provided in this freshly renovated space, serving their masterpiece on the dining table for everyone to enjoy.
On the first floor, a wonderful sunroom offers a quiet place to recline, with wooden flooring and wonderful French windows opening onto a private rooftop terrace balcony, where there is a seating area for you to enjoy the scenery of the river and abundance of lush trees surrounding the cottage.
Rest your head in the double room with ample storage and a splash of blue added to the décor, as well as a view to the beautiful surrounding area, and there is a second room sporting twin beds perfect for children.
A shower-room offers a refreshing evening shower, or you can take a soak in the bath before you snuggle down for the night.
A south facing, enclosed shared garden with a private patio to the front is a great spot to sit and enjoy some alfresco dining or to simply relax and listen to the sounds of the river.
With such a beautiful property, you will feel compelled to discover more of the local area and its wonders, and so why not visit Langmoor and Lister Gardens for a picnic and to marvel at the wonderful plants on display, or you can head down to the famous Lyme Regis Fossil Beach where you can take in the sea air and keep an eye out for fossils along the bay.
The history of this area can be explored through the Lyme Regis Museum, or you can step even further back in time with a family day out to Dinosaurland Fossil Museum.
Lyme Regis also offers a mini golf course, the Donkey Sanctuary and Wildlife Park.
Just a short walk from the cottage you will find wonderful cafes, shops and pubs, where you will be able to relax in the sun with home-made cake and coffee, or you can take a stroll along the quaint harbour.
Make a holiday you will remember with a stay at 1 Lymbrook Cottages.
