  • "A fantastic property for either one large family or two families."

    We stayed with friends, so two adult couples and two 17 year old boys and the space was perfect. Beds were comfortable, the kitchen was spacious and really well equipped. The view from the terrace at the front was stunning. Having multiple TVs was great along with having three separate spaces for jigsaw-ing, sport watching and gaming (we brought our own consoles). One of the boys used the study for doing some work too so all in all, it really was a home from home. It was a 10 minute walk downhill in to Lyme - be aware it is a hike uphill back home, but of course that affords you the views and gives you walking access to countryside routes rather than just coastal. Definitely recommend!

  • "The property was beautifully clean, well equipped and well furnished."

    The garden is lovely and well maintained by a gardener who came whilst we were staying. All the bedrooms and bathrooms are lovely and bright and really clean. The kitchen has everything you could need. We really enjoyed making use of the balcony as we were lucky enough to experience good weather. My only suggestion would be a parasol for the balcony. The welcome pack was a really lovely touch as was the milk in the fridge which meant we could have a cup of tea without having to wait for shopping to arrive. The walk down to Lyme Regis was lovely along the river path - the hills back up are quite steep but manageable. We all had a lovely week.

    Thank you for your lovely review and also your helpful suggestion which we will definitely action. Property Owner

  • "We were delighted with this house we found extremely comfortable clean and generously appointed."

    The steep steps up to the house mentioned in the original description resulted in a party of guests much fitter after just one week. Only hiccup came in the shape of a single wheelie bin when two are essential for 8 guests. If the grandkids maintain their lust for fossils we will return. Thank you

  • "House was lovely, not an easy walk."

    Into town. Loved the space and quietness, a great family holiday. Only niggle was the combi boiler, showers too variable whilst in use. Would not recommend for children unless other water use monitored.

  • "It’s a lovely clean house with quality furnishings which is well equipped eg lovely wine glasses and serving bowls etc."

    The downstairs areas are extremely spacious and the outdoor furniture was lovely. The walk down to Lyme Regis was about 15/20 minutes but quite pleasant, the hill back up was not too bad. Unfortunately we did not sleep very well as the bedrooms are very close together and the floorboards are extremely creaky and 2 bedrooms share the family bathroom - the plumbing is very loud. The other thing is that the curtains do not block the light at all, they are mostly just for privacy and the mattresses were very hard.

  • "We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Lyme Bay View."

    A beautiful property, spotlessly clean and so well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. We really enjoyed our stay and didn't really want to leave tbf. Thank you.

  • "We were impressed with the cleanliness and presentation of the property."

    Everything and more that you could need was there, if it wasn't you didn't need it! (well, almost: we could have done with a washing up bowl and ice cube trays, also a towel in the downstairs loo.) I have never stayed anywhere so well equipped. The welcome pack was well thought out and very much appreciated. It was a beautiful house and the views are amazing but unfortunately it's a bit of an uphill hike back from the beach which wasn't mentioned in the spec .but being Lyme Regis we should have known. We were however disappointed with a couple of things: One of the frying pans hadn't been washed or dried properly as there were spots of mould all over the base; the cafetiere was also dirty, the plunger was brown so had to be scrubbed and when we soaked it small bits of ground coffee floated around the jug). I appreciate these things happen and in no way did it spoil our stay. Anything we needed to know was in the folder. Overall we all were very pleased and very comfortable and would thoroughly recommend unless of course you have little legs and 'don't do hills'.!

    There was a lovely welcome pack, so nice to be able to have a cup of tea and a biscuit when you arrive. We went with friends of ours, so was great that we both had en-suites. Really nice walks from the house, would highly recommend this property.

Beautifully presented, this spacious, four-bedroom abode can accommodate up to 8 guests, making it suitable for larger families or groups of friends looking to enjoy all that this much-loved seaside town has to offer.

A pet-friendly cottage, dogs are welcome too, ideal for those looking to enjoy the many coastal walks, including the renowned Southwest Coastal Path and the beaches, many of which welcome dogs.

Steps lead from the parking spaces to the house where you will get your first sight of the impressive views evident throughout.

Bright and welcoming, the lounge is furnished with sumptuous sofas where you can recline in front of the flame effect gas fire.

A separate snug with doors opening onto the rear garden is perfect for sitting quietly with a book and enjoying your morning coffee before embarking on your day.

Often the heart of the home, the kitchen/diner in this house is no exception.

Well-equipped and furnished, it is the ideal sociable space to gather everyone together for mealtimes.

The four beautifully styled bedrooms are located on the first floor and include a spacious super-king-size bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a king-size with en-suite shower room.

The second king-size bedroom and the twin bedroom are serviced by the family bathroom which has a bath with a thermostatic shower over.

Guests staying at Lyme Bay View will certainly want to make the most of the amazing views, which can be fully appreciated from the roof terrace at the front of the property.

Bedecked with an outdoor table and chairs, this spot has alfresco mealtimes calling while you sit and watch the late evening sun highlighting the Golden Cap cliffs in the distance.

At the rear of the house, there is a spacious patio area and a further terraced garden with pretty coastal styled planting and mature shrubs.

When it comes to a holiday in Lyme Regis, venture out and fully enjoy your surroundings.

A short stroll alongside the river walk will take you into the town centre with its many independent shops and attractions.

A favourite with families, the sandy beach is the ideal spot for swimming or sitting in the sun, while those who enjoy more active beach time activities can try their hand at paddleboarding or take a boat trip from the famous Cobb harbour and appreciate the breathtaking Jurassic coast from the sea.

When you don’t fancy cooking in the evening, head to one of the many restaurants and pubs, such as SWIM on the seafront or The Pilot Boat, both serving a great selection of local food and beverages.

In an area renowned for its fossils there are many related activities to enjoy, whether you want to soak up the history at The Lyme Regis Museum or learn about the area’s geology at The Charmouth Coast Heritage Centre situated on the beach in neighbouring Charmouth.

Coastal fossil finds are waiting to be discovered so why not join one of the local fossil hunting walks where you can pick up handy tips on the best locations to find your own ammonite on the shore? Further afield, Durdle Door is one of Dorset's most photographed and iconic landmarks or perhaps take a short drive to Beer.

A pretty sheltered cove with a backdrop of limestone cliffs and a long fishing heritage which is still very much alive today, offering a colourful population of fishing boats, fresh fish and Beer crab for sale, and mackerel fishing trips. With so much to see and do, Lyme Bay View makes a wonderful getaway for an adventure the whole family can enjoy.
