  • "Great location and clean and tidy apartment."

    Was at the top of Silver Street so for people with lack of mobility it may be a problem. Fact that there was no en-suite (did know this at booking) bit of a downside for us oldies who need to get up up the night. The sofa was comfy but not so much the very low chairs. As it was November, didn't get to use outside facilities but the views and equipment looked great. Very well equipped aparmtnent which we would recommend.

  • "The flat was lovely, great views and the parking was a fantastic bonus."

    Everything we needed was available. It is a steep hill up to the flat from town but a great way to burn off some calories after a pint or two. Would definitely return!

  • "Lovely flat but the dining table was not very good very wobbly and the bench could be more comfortable otherwise we had a lovely stay."

    One other thing I have never been asked to strip the bed before but this may be a new thing now. You may want to change the blue bag from time to time as it was a bit smelly

    Really comfortable and equipped for all your needs. Spotless inside and out. Beautiful views and a lovely welcoming pack. Would definitely use again and recommend it too. ..

  • "Loved the apartment."

    Great view and location. Stunning artwork. The only minor complaint my husband had was there was no chopping board for food prep.

    Thank you for kind feedback . There is a breadboard in a drawer within the cutlery drawer. (It is labeled on the outside) Thank you for pointing out about a chopping board, as a plastic on for meat would be a good idea. ; Property Owner

  • "Beautiful apartment, great views and a good location (up a fairly steep hill though so may not suit everyone)."

    We couldn't fault anything about the apartment (and loved the artwork), it's bigger than it looks in the photos, the bed was huge and very comfy, and it was really helpful having a designated parking space. We'll definitely book again next time we visit Lyme Regis and recommend it to friends.

  • "This flat, part of an old building, has been meticulously and tastefully modernised in a fresh style."

    The kitchen is very well equipped, and the living room and bedroom are comfortable. The flat was spotlessly clean, and the welcome basket a nice touch. We couldn't give full marks for maintenance as there are some details that require attention, which I've reported to the agent. Just a note if you book this flat: there is no shaver point in the bathroom so you might like to bring an adaptor to charge your devices in the kitchen. In general, you are unlikely to be disappointed with the property, with the view, and with it's proximity to the town centre.

    Loved it, very spacious, everything provided always lovely to return after a day out. Loved the style, furniture & the great king size bed. The photographs did not show any lies, just perfect.

    We are so pleased you had a wonderful visit to Lyme Regis and enjoyed the flat. Thank you for sharing your positive experience. Many thanks Property Owner

  • "Coastal View is a lovely, well equipped apartment with a great view over the Jurassic coastline."

    It was roomier than we expected, especially as it is a one bed apartment which are often much smaller. The only criticism is that the seating in the lounge is not as comfortable as it looks. The armchairs are very low and deep and the settee sloped from the back to the front edge which wasn't ideal for a comfy sit.

  • "Lovely apartment very spacious and modern."

    Well equipped and great views of sea. Welcome basket was a nice bonus. We enjoyed sitting outside on the lovely furniture on our private patio in the sun. Parking was a bit tight due to the parking space being in the corner but we managed ok. Short walk down the hill to the centre. You could also walk through the park to the beach too. We would recommend this apartment.

    Thank you for your positive feedback. I'm so glad that you walked through the park to get to the sea. Its such a lovely view from up there and pretty at night as they have coloured lights at the top. Property Owner

  • "Coastal View is one of the loveliest properties we have ever stayed in."

    It was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The art work is fascinating and there is a sea view from every window. Having an allocated parking space was a big bonus for Lyme Regis. As we were only 7 minutes walk away from the village, there were many days when we didn't use the car at all. There is so much to do in Lyme. We recommend the "History Walk." Book it through Lyme Regis museum.

    Thank you for your positive feedback. We are so pleased that you had a lovely stay in Lyme Regis. We haven’t tried the History walk yet, so will do that on our next visit. Property Owner

    .. with a real attention to detail. The kitchen - as the rest - was spotless and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the King size bed, the comfy sofas, well lighted for reading, the little stools to place a cup of tea or a book... The highlight was the stunning, panoramic view from the living room, which we could not get tired of! A really lovely place to stay, which we can't recommend enough!

    Thank you for your lovely and positive feedback which is very much appreciated. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay over the Christmas period. Hopefully you will be able to come back to Lyme again one day. It is such a lovely spot. Property Owner

  • "A lovely apartment."

    It has everything you need for a holiday and little touches that make it even more welcoming. We really enjoyed coming back to it after a day walking and exploring, and stayed in a few evenings rather than go out for dinner, which we don’t normally do on holiday. It’s a really fab place and situated in a perfect part of the town for access etc and has parking off road! A bonus if staying in Lyme Regis.

    Thank you so much for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope that you come back and visit Lyme Regis again. Property Owner

    We did have issues with the yale key , it's very dodgy and needs looking at , we locked up when going out with the chub style key having put the snip up on the door . Also issue with the TV , we couldn't get to grips with it at all , good job we were out every evening or we would have had to contact you .

    Thank you for you feed back. I will get the Yale key checked out, not something we want guest to have to worry about. We have bought a new TV which will go into the flat in a couple of weeks time - we are very sorry if you were inconvenienced by this. Property Owner

  • "Great view."

    The couch was so uncomfortable. Go and have a look at it, instead of just renting it out again. No one can sit on it comfortably. There is also a rip on the arm? The window is broken in the bedroom. I phoned the support number and the man sent someone over even though I wasn't going to be there. He had to cancel it. Then they persisted on ringing early the next morning to arrange a time. He left a number on my answering machine to phone, and it wasn't even the correct number. Idiot springs to mind. Not something you want to be dealing with on a holiday. Window never got fixed. Major security concern when you're travelling with laptops etc. There were only two toilet rolls for two people for seven days? Come on. There was no detergent for the washing machine? The WiFi is horrendous also. It isn't even WiFi it's just a repeater that has been set up for the whole building. Because there are other flats in the same building. The view is spectacular out the window. Would I go back to this one? I think I'll try somewhere else next time.

    We hope you enjoyed your stay. Looking at our records one of our Maintenance Team attended during your stay and closed the windows. We will organise a revisit to check the window. As the property is self-catering it provides a starter amount of toilet roll, and other basic cleaning materials but not washing machine detergent as this is quite a personal choice. We will certainly go and check the sofa on the next changeover. The Lyme Bay Team Just to clarify, the Wifi is solely for our flat. The hub is in our locked room and the booster is what you see in the lounge. We have always had a strong signal there with no issues. Property Owner

  • "The arrangement of the converted house means this wasn’t a relaxing and peaceful stay."

    Extreme noise could be heard from the flat above. Floor creaking to the point the lamp shade vibrates. This was raised as an issue and was only “dealt with” after we confirmed that we had left early due to noise. The kitchen had a connecting door to another flats bedroom and our bedroom had another flats living room on the wall. We are a quiet couple looking for a peaceful week away and this wasn’t the place for us. The mattress also needs to be replaced, We couldn’t recommend and won’t be returning. Lyme Regis as a town was lovely though.

    Thank you for your feedback although again, we are sorry to hear that you did not have a relaxing stay. We did raise this with Lyme Bay Holidays as the flat above ours were also guests of theirs. I understand from the permanent residents in the house that they had never heard such noisy guests. We would point out that the kitchen does not have a door connecting to another flat's bedroom. The door is to our second bedroom which is used for storage and personal items. It is not another flat. We will investigate the mattress - it is not particularly old, it is a good make and has a new mattress topper but we are sorry this wasn't too your liking. Property Owner

  • "Lovely well appointed flat."

    Everything you need and lots of extras. It would be useful if the directions from the car park area said that the white gates are only accessible from opposite side the of the building, through the gate from the road. Also, from a personal perspective, it would be good to be supplied with larger towels or listing updated to say they are small so people can bring their own. Would definitely visit again.

  • "What a wonderful bright, quiet and airy flat with sea views from the living room and the decked outside area."

    We had a really fantastic stay there. It was so clean, tidy, comfy and very well equipped. I did email Sykes cottages to see what basics would be provided in the flat and the response said take everything you need - but it was actually very well kitted out - toilet roll, kitchen roll, cooking oil, milk, dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid, tea towels, hand wash and a small hamper of crisps, a few tea bags and some lovely biscuits. It was great that it was all provided, but would have been helpful to have been told what was there by Sykes to save packing it all and then not needing it. Would thoroughly recommend a stay here and would definitely come back if I was planning a revisit to Lyme.

    Thank you so much for your positive feedback. You are our first guests so that means a lot. Glad you enjoyed it and hope you visit Lyme again. Property Owner
