"The best location in Lyme Regis!"
Lovely hosts, great food just minutes away and access to wonderful walks. The cabin has everything needed for a break and revitalise. The terrace views are unforgettable. Three visits this year says it all.

"Wow it was lovely."
...Merry & Carl were two very lovely people and very helpful...the only critcism we had was that the TV was a bit too small and the programmes available were limited. Other than that we could not have wished for a more lovely cabin. The views were great and on the whole it was a super place to be. Our only regret is that we had to leave 3 days early due to medical emergency. If you are able to get in touch with Merry & Carl please explain the reason for our sudden departure.

"We have just completed our weeks stay in the cabin at Lyme Regis I can honestly say that despite using Sykes for dozens of holiday breaks this facility and location has to be up there with the best."
The location was exceptional the facility was exactly as described, superb! A first class holiday with no issues whatsoever.
-
"We had a lovely time, and the cabin owners provided everything we needed for a late summer holiday."
On arrival, Carl (the owner) greeted us and made us feel welcome. Whilst the cabin is within the town It has an isolated feel with a good amount of privacy and provides a quiet, peaceful location. Access to the cabin is via steps and the walks are generally hilly but nothing too strenuous. There are outstanding views across the bay with pleasant short walks through gardens to the town, seafront and harbour amenities.

"We didn't want for anything and the cabin was cleverly compact."
-
"Beautiful property great location will definitely be returning."
-
"A comfortable cabin with superb position and views"
-
"Lovely location and ideal for exploring the area."
Maybe more emphasis on limited kitchen facilities and especially on very limited fridge / freezer space. Also limited clothes storage space - guests should be prepared to live out of their suitcases. Nonetheless we had a great experience and would recommend.
-
"A wonderful location with fantastic views."
Very comfortable chalet with many lovely features, particularly liked the soft towels, welcome pack and very powerful binoculars to watch all the activity around the Cobb. Agreeing with previous guests that the fridge is rather small and a cupboard for food stuffs would be handy. Steep access would make it a difficult location for anyone with mobility issues. Extremely friendly and helpful hosts helped to make our stay very enjoyable.
-
"A very well earned break and couldn’t have picked a more peaceful place within walking distance of amenities and views to die for!"
Pity you couldn’t help us out with the extra night! Hosts wonderful
-
"Carefully chosen by us for our second visit to Lyme Regis."
Expectations met. The Cabin is a lovely property with an amazing view and had all the facilities we needed for a short visit. Nicely maintained and perfectly situated. Friendly host.
-
"Pity that the large window facing south over the harbour did not go down to nearer floor level !"
! A view over the harbour from lying in bed would have been great !!
-
""The Cabin" is our favourite place to relax and unwind: that's why we visit twice each year."
Compact and secluded accommodation, with fantastic views over the harbour and the Cobb, and with all the best bits of Lyme Regis within fairly easy reach - even for an old bloke with mobility issues like me. The Owners live nearby, and are incredibly friendly and helpful.
-
"Simply we loved it, very comfortable everything we needed."
If there was anything we would change it would be perfect if the window was a patio door and we could see the sea whilst sitting (greedy) plus a larger fridge, easier for wine and beer!! The owner were brilliant
-
"Perfectly situated for lovely views across the Cobb and parks adjacent to the property."
The owners couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable so we thank them both for that...and there is a wonderful seafood and fish restaurant right next door. We would recommend this property without hesitation.
-
"Some of the crockery and cutlery was dirty…no problem for us to clean."
Also the fridge door and bathroom door was dirty/grubby and I had wipes so I cleaned it. We loved the cabin! Fabulous place and location and the owners were friendly and helpful. We have rebooked.
It's so great to hear that you loved The Cabin. We will do a spot check on the cleanliness of the property to ensure our normal standards are being maintained. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

"The cabin was utterly delightful."
The views were so beautiful and we had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. Our hosts were friendly and helpful. The town and seafront are just a short walk away with plenty of shops and restaurants. The weather was fabulous during our stay which added to our enchantment with the beauty of Dorset.
-
"We had a lovely few days in the cablin ."
The views from the window were very picturesque. We would definitely go back there . We would definitely highly recommend staying at The Cabin xx
-
"Lovely view, clean and comfortable."
Had a really enjoyable holiday. Yes would recommend
-
"Perfect short break ‘to breathe in the sea’ as window and decking views are exceptional."
Compact space with all the essentials and very quiet location. Soft but comfy mattress: no blackout curtains so take eye masks for bright mornings. Parking is tight but once there, you won’t need to move. We liked the seafront breakfasts at Swim or Kiosk after an early morning dip. Friendly owners nearby and very close to the Oyster & Fish House… we will return.
-
"Thank you so much for such a wonderful time."
We were so surprised and delighted by the welcome pack. You had thought of everything and the cabin was so comfortable. The mattress was extremely comfortable to sleep on, we slept well from the very first night. We were so grateful to you for your hospitality and friendliness. The cabin provided us with just the relaxation we were seeking. The view is to die for and the sun even put in a few appearances. If you could organise the weather to be a little warmer next time that is the only improvement we could ask for!
-
"An ideal setting, lovely harbour views yet away from the crowds."
The Cabin was exactly as depicted on the web site. Driveway quite steep and parking can become a little crowded but this is readily balanced by the setting. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. I knocked comfort back one point as the bed mattress was rather too soft for my back problem, but I will be very happy to stay there again.
-
"The Cabin was everything we hade been led to believe it would be."
Well, maintained and stylishly decorated. We had the most wonderful weather and we were able to make full use of the decking and seating overlooking probably one of the most iconic and beautiful views on the South of England coast. For us, the Restaurant at the top of the steps to the Cabin was a God send. The menu was varied and delicious. Our hosts were welcoming and kind and dealt efficiently and promptly with a small problem we had on the first morning. We cannot thank them enough.
It's lovely to hear that you had such an enjoyable time. The Hix restaurant has an excellent reputation for local seafood, and as you say, is on your doorstep! The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

"The view was fabulous, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom was fine - all good points."
The restaurant is noisy at times especially late at night, the decking needs replacing, the cooking facilities are a bit small and not practical, the fridge is too small for even basic things.
We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the fabulous views and location offered by The Cabin. The owner takes great care of the property to ensure guest comfort, so we will pass on your constructive comments to them for consideration. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

"Will certainly return when we return to the area, thank you :)"
-
"The Cabin was perfect for us with a great view and comfortable and private decked patio with comfortable chairs and table."
Bed was comfortable and shower hot. Our hosts were lovely. Very approachable and helpful. The welcome pack was unexpected but most appreciated, thank you. Would have been nice to have had a slightly larger fridge which left us slightly restricted, but this didn’t impact on our holiday. Would happily return!!
-
"The property would benefit from a food cabinet and a fridge that had an icebox"
-
"The Cabin is our “go-to” retreat, which we book for several weeks spread throughout each year."
It ticks all the boxes for us (a retired couple), including dedicated parking, phenomenal views, seclusion, walkable access to the sea-front and town, and very friendly owners.
-
"We had a great stay with the views as advertised, amazing to sit and look of the sea."
The nearby restaurant was excellent both staff and food. The cabin is compact and perfect for our short getaway. Our only comment and this is a personal thing, is the mattress was a bit soft for us. Thank you!
-
"A grill of some sort and small food cupboard would be useful."
Could have been swept more thoroughly.
-
"Lovely cottage in a fantastic location with helpful and friendly owners."
Very comfortable and well equipped. Very restful break with a beautiful view over the Cobb.
-
"We enjoyed a fabulous stay at the Cabin."
If you want to switch off and stare at the sea, then this is place for you.
