• "Second stay here - amazing views and especially siting outside on one of the many (public) benches to catch the sun rise as well many people swimming ."

  Once unloaded and parked up the hill etc lots to do . The Oyster House (formerly Hix's - I had booked 12 months ago for this )and the Pilot pub very good . Black dog cafe in Uper Lyme excellent . Harville Cottage was great.

• "A lovely stay, warm and cosy and the beds were so comfortable."

  The downsides were: .shower had to be unblocked after flooding (Response was quick) .Light bulbs missing or not working in the kitchen and main bedroom .Paint flakes on the carpet behind single bed .Table lamp next to the same single bed unable to plug in as the extension lead was too short

• "Lovely cottage and a lovely stay - I’ve been coming to Lyme Regis for 50 years and will hopefully continue to come for another good few years."

  However, the prices now being charged are proving too high - it was the quietest I’ve known Lyme in June and the general consensus from people we spoke to is they will not return as they can go elsewhere for half the price - can’t say I disagree - it would be interesting to know why the prices have been increased so much as I can’t see any other reason than greed

• "Just had a very enjoyable holiday in Harville Cottage."

  The cottage is very well located pretty much right on the beach with short walks to Broad Street and all the facility's that Lyme has to offer. The property is well maintained and had all that we needed whilst on our stay. The parking permit supplied with the cottage was very useful also. We would defiantly stay here again. As ever we great service from Lyme Bay Holidays.

• "This was our 6th or 7th stay at Harville Cottage, which I think says it all."

  Outstanding position and redecorated since last year. a very comfortable and welcoming cottage. Unfortunately, I think this may be our last visit as the trek to the car park is becoming increasingly difficult now at our age, even though we only attempt it once leave Lyme.We did try to get a taxi but one wasn't available.

• "We love Harville Cottage."

  We have stayed in two others places in Lyme Regis before we stayed in Harville and this is the third year we have stayed here and it feels like second home. Well done for the refurbished downstairs toilet. It looks great. Thumbs up for the cleaning team. My white socks were as white as when I put them on in the morning after walking up and down the floors.

• "The sound of the sea is always with you here and I just love that."

  The shops are a couple of minutes one way and the cobb the same the other. The cottage itself is well appointed generally although a smart TV would be a nice addition The proof of the pudding etc and we have booked this a few times now- enjoy!

• "It was a pleasure to stay in Harville Cottage."

  It had all we needed for our stay and what a stay we had. What a view to wake up to and to be able to walk out the door onto the seafront. My son even played the sound of the sea on our first night back home. It was certainly a memorable family experience. I think most of us would agree we’d love to come back

• "We took my elderly parents here again, this time for their 66th wedding anniversary and it was perfect, restaurants etc easily accessible and a great view from the bay window."

  They enjoyed sitting outside and chatting with friendly (and envious!) passers-by. Great to be able to swim straight from the cottage. The main bedroom is spacious and welcoming. We had the small twin room up in the attic but the beds were very comfortable! Sadly I don’t think they could manage the stairs this year, otherwise we’d be back there again!

• "We loved our stay at Harville Cottage."

  It's the perfect location for a seaside break - right on the beach and within minutes of shops, restaurants and bars. Comfortable and well stocked, with a lovely welcome hamper of local (and very tasty) food, the house is perfect for a family of four. Thank you.

• "We love this cottage."

  This is the second time we returned to this property. Slightly disappointed not to see a nespresso machine as suggested in my review last year. The cottage is very comfortable and almost everything is branded with John Lewis. The kitchen is well equipped. The location is idea, right by the beach and very central to quite a few eateries. Highly recommended.

  We're so pleased that you chose to return to the cottage for another holiday. All of our properties do provide a cafetirere to make fresh coffee. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

• "Easily the best holiday cottage we have taken in the UK ever!"

  Location location location and lovely, homely facilities with everything you could ever need provided. The welcome pack was super - thank you. One very minor issue - the front door lock was temperamental and needed a good bit of wiggling the key to open door from outside!

  Thank you for making such kind comments about Harville Cottage. We will ask our Maintenance Team to take a look at the front door lock. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

• "The cottage is in an amazing location, right on the beachfront, so there are wonderful sea views, and lots of seaside activity to watch!"

  Plus, there is the constant soothing background sound of the waves. The cottage has been very thoughtfully furnished and equipped, and helpful notes have been provided on practicalities.

  What a lovely review, hearing the waves in the background is just the best! Thank you for staying at Harville. Property Owner

• "Lovely cosy cottage with fabulous views to the sea and The Cobb."

  The welcome pack provided on our arrival was much appreciated. The cottage is very well equipped and provides a parking permit for one of the local car parks which is very handy. There are also two EV chargers in the car park which was great for us having an electric car. Staying in the winter meant we were able to watch the rough seas from the comfort of the lounge and lying in bed listening to the waves at night was very relaxing. Lots of good eating places within walking distance of the cottage. Would highly recommend staying at Harville Cottage to others.

  Which lead to the property being quite cold! Other then that we would stay again

  We had to switch the radiators off, particularly the one in the entrance hall it was overwhelmingly hot. Other than that the cottage was stunning

• "Harville Cottage was the perfect place to celebrate my parents' 65th wedding anniversary."

  They loved sitting outside on the folding chairs provided and chatting to all the friendly passers-by (someone said 'you've got the best spot in Lyme Regis!') It was well-equipped and comfortably furnished and the view from the sitting room bay window was amazing. We loved it too as we could pop across to the beach for a swim whenever we liked, and it was so easy to get to pubs and restaurants along the sea front. Having the car park permit was very handy too. We would definitely stay here again!

• "This cottage is the third one we have been in in Lyme Regis in as many years, and we lucked out with this one and it’s a keeper."

  It’s charming and comfortable. Amazing sea view. If we had wanted to cook, everything was there in terms of equipment. It’s almost home away from home except for a Nespresso machine! The Yale door lock is a bit tricky to open. It needs patience and wiggling! I would also feel safer if there was another bolt lock at the bottom of the door on the inside. We’ll be back here annually! In fact we already booked for a week for May next year.

• "Such a delight to stay in this lovely cottage a step away from the sea."

  The only minor point was that the correct bin bags were not left for rubbish collection, but when I rang the bags were left that day for us. Also as there were two of us staying who did different things during the day it would have been helpful to have 2 keys instead of one. Thank you Esyllt
