  • "We have just returned from a short break at Lyme Zest."

    It was located in a very quiet area, with views over the town. Everything inside is pristine and spotless. I have never visited a holiday home that is so well equipped. It is difficult to think of anything that we may have needed. There are lots of great bars, pubs and restaurants in the town. We had some great meals. The local beer, Palmers, is very good if that’s your thing! We even went to a concert at the Marine Theatre. It was a very relaxing and comfortable week. As others have noted, the walk back up is steep. We used Eco Cabs, the number is in the binder, who were very reasonable and efficient. We will be back!

  • "What a beautiful comfortable holiday home this is."

    Great location in Lyme Regis, very well equipped and thought out. The owners even provide a cosy bed for the dog which ours very much appreciated. Easy to walk into town along the river straight to the micro brewery, very handy! Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit Dorset as there are so many place to visit on the gorgeous Jurassic coast.

  • "We had a 5-night stay in Lyme Zest during July/August 2024 and absolutely loved it."

    To be fair, we had the most perfect weather imaginable but it was topped off by staying in this lovely apartment. The owners have clearly made an effort to make you feel welcome. The bottle of wine was a lovely touch. The apartment itself is beautifully appointed. It's been newly refurbished and had everything we needed for ourselves, our two boys and our dog. It is a good 10-15 minute walk to town and 20 minutes right to the beach although we weren't hurrying so you could probably do it more quickly. As other reviews have said, the walk back is very much uphill but it's Lyme Regis - you expect a few hills! Best route is down the path to the side of the property and then a lovely walk along the river into town. The next time we're planning to come this way, we'll definitely look to stay at Lyme Zest again.

  • "What a wonderful apartment, very well equipped and furnished to the highest standard."

    Location was perfect, especially having your own car space. Kitchen had everything you could possibly need, particularly good pans, trays, crockery and utensils, although a spare cupboard to put your own food in (eg cereals, bread etc) would be helpful. An extra shelf in en suite to put your own toiletries on would also be helpful but facilities were spotless with a really good shower.

  • "Beautiful apartment, super clean and loved the wine!"

    Beds are super comfy and plenty of room. Only issue we had was due to the location and our senior dog she couldn't manage the walk back from the town uphill. This shouldn't deflect from the beauty of this holiday home, just one to be aware of if you have an elderly fur baby :) Thank you so much!

  • "We had a lovely 2 night stay here."

    The property is spacious and well kept with a lovely balcony to relax on (ignoring the carpark below). The location is slightly out of the town and up a fairly steep hill, but perfectly manageable if you are reasonably fit (our 5 year was fine, but younger might need some encouragement). I would definitely recommend and would be happy to rebook.

    Close to pubs and down the hill to Lyme Regis beach area. Very well situated to visit rest of Dorset, Devon and Somerset. The only thing we didn't like was the sofa and chair, not very comfortable, but couldn't fault anything else.

  • "The property was as described on the web page."

    The essentials such as bathrooms and beds were exceptional, as was the wi fi (becoming very important almost essential) and parking. We realize the property has only been in use for about eight months but the decor was very good, unmarked and the variety of pictures on the walls interesting. Are they really covers of long playing records in the wall or a photo?. Should we want a return visit to west Dorset in the future, we would use the property again.

  • "Great new apartment."

    Really well fitted out and we loved the quiet location albeit still just 10 minutes walk from central Lyme Regis. Great little kitchen space with ample equipment which we enjoyed so not having to eat out all the time. My only suggestion would be a larger bed in the main bedroom. The room is big enough to comfortably fit a king size bed rather than the standard double currently in place. That said, we loved our stay and would definitely come back for our next visit to the area.

    Thanks for the great feedback, look forward to welcoming you back! Lyme Zest Property Owner

    It was located further out of Lyme than we expected but maybe we didn't properly interpret the wording of the listing. Everything we needed was there, including a hair dryer still in it's box. No one had altered the clocks after the end of summer time. They remain an hour wrong

The property

Lyme Zest is a delightful, ground-floor apartment located in Victoria House in the picturesque coastal town of Lyme Regis, Dorset.

Formerly the station hotel, this spacious and solidly built Victorian property has been recently converted into luxurious apartments with superb views over the town to the sea and coastline beyond.

Typical of the period, the apartment has high ceilings and large windows providing plenty of natural light, with an enviable outside terrace for those wishing to relax and take in the seaside air.

With many stylish and exquisite personal touches throughout, this is a wonderful choice for couples, families or friends looking to spend time enjoying a beautiful part of Dorset.

The apartment is bright and welcoming with an open-plan living area making you feel right at home.

All tastefully styled throughout, the apartment has a well-equipped kitchen with dining area and cosy seating area where you can relax with a good book or film.

Large doors open onto the terrace which is the perfect spot for alfresco dining with wonderful views of the Jurassic Coastline as your backdrop.

When it comes to nighttime, there are two bedrooms, a double with en-suite shower room and a twin bedroom, together with a family bathroom.

Lyme Regis is a seaside town noted for its family-friendly beaches, centuries old Cobb Harbour and unspoilt surrounding countryside.

A short walk from the apartment takes you to the town centre where you will find good shopping facilities for day-to-day needs, together with a wonderful array of independent shops selling local produce and gifts.

Food lovers will enjoy the great selection of eateries available including fine dining establishments such as Toms or The Oyster and Fish House while the many pubs and restaurants serve a good selection of local food and beverages.

Lyme Regis seafront boasts a sandy beach with paddle boarding and other water sports for you to try.

Regular boat trips run from the Cobb harbour giving visitors a chance to view the dramatic Jurassic Coast from the sea or spot some of the marine life living in the waters.

Situated on the beautiful and unspoilt Devon and Dorset ‘Jurassic Coast’ the area is popular with walkers and the nearby South West Coastal footpath takes in pretty seaside locations and fishing villages and rewards walkers with spectacular far reaching coastal views towards Chesil Beach and Portland on a clear day.

For day trips, why not head to the popular fishing village of Beer with its limestone cliffs and pretty beach where it is easy to lose a few hours sitting in a deckchair watching the local fishermen hauling their catches ashore.

Or head to neighbouring Seaton, where you can hop on board and take a tram ride along the river Axe estuary through nature reserves to Colyford and Colyton.

Other popular days out include The Donkey Sanctuary at Sidmouth or Abbotsbury with its acclaimed swannery and subtropical gardens.

With so much to see and do, Lyme Zest is a fabulous choice for your next seaside break.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
