About this property

Georgian terraced family cottage - 3 minutes walk from beach

This delightful Georgian cottage is one of a picturesque row close to the church and overlooking a quiet square. It is very warm, comfortable and well equipped. Charming enclosed garden which is accessed upstairs through the cottage together with a separate annexe sleeping further 3 people. One of the best locations in Lyme; choice of two totally different beaches- one famous for fossils, each only 2/3 minutes walk. Shops just around the corner.


'Appletrees' is gas centrally heated and provided with everything you will need in the way of bed linen, towels, duvets, pans, crockery and cutlery. In the kitchen there is a 4 ring gas hob and built-in electric cooker, microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The spacious dining area with long table and bench seats is open through to the lounge, where ample comfortable seating and a Smart 43" 4K TV creates a cosy family room. A door leads upstairs to bedrooms, bathroom and garden. The pretty patio garden is fully enclosed and is, equipped with table, chairs, benches and a pretty arbour with further seating.
Across the garden, which is only accessed through the cottage up some steep stairs, is the 'boathouse' which comprises of a double bedroom (with zip and link king-size bed and 32" Smart TV), a single bedroom, shower and laundry.

Lyme Regis is a lovely little town with something for everyone. Apart from the attractions of beach, harbour, pubs, cliff top rambles and golf course, the town itself is full of picturesque buildings and little alleyways. Close to 'Appletrees' runs the river, on its way through the town. Here you will meet Lyme's other residents - ducks!

Lovely cosy cottage and in the best, most convenient location. A short easy walk to the beach, restaurants and shops, without any of the serious hill walks to many Lyme Regis properties,

Lovely position in Lyme Regis
We really enjoyed our week in this delightful cottage which was fine for us as a couple. No on-site parking but the car park up the road was very convenient especially as it meant we didn't have to drive through the narrow streets. Very central and easy to walk into Lyme Regis where there are loads of great restaurants. Sleeps 8 but we were glad we weren't a bigger party at this time of year as downstairs is quite small. Great outside space for the summer though.

Perfect location and property
As a group of single, (almost) middle aged adults, this was the perfect property for us with plenty of rooms and space for us all to enjoy time together and apart and the same could be said for families too. The large outside space is a real joy and very versatile with both covered and uncovered seating areas. The property has the added bonus of being at the bottom of the hill and for those of you who know Lyme Regis, it's always easier to go downhill at the end of the day! We would all recommend this property.

We travelled down to celebrate a family memebr’s 50 birthday in his home town and with his family.
The property I has some original features that capture its history. It is well looked after and set among the houses that lead down to the sea & picturesque beach. We were a party of 7 and there was plenty of accommodation. All the beds were fresh and clean and all the facilities ready for us to use as a family. The owner couldn’t have been more helpful and personable. We had a very enjoyable short stay and would be happy to go back there soon

Lovely little house in a perfect location
We really enjoyed our stay here. The High Street and coast are 5 minutes walk away, the locals are really friendly and the house has everything you need. There were 7 of us staying here and just enough room for everyone. The annex space out back has been deigned really well to give a large very double room with a huge and really comfortable bed which we struggled to leave each morning!

Nice quirky little cottage with everything we needed for a weekend break, no Wi-Fi but that wasn't a problem for us. All clean and tidy. Stunning scenery on the doorstop and 2 minutes walk from the centre made this the perfect location for us

Brilliant cottage
We loved our stay at the cottage. It is close to the beach and town. Perfect location for a family holiday. The house is in a lovely condition and spacious, with all the comforts of home. If you are thinking about booking there, do not hesitate just book it! We loved it, could not ask for more.

First impression was the cottage was a bit small for 8 people
The cottage was quite dirty, cobwebs in the kitchen and in the outside toilet. There was a hole in the wall in one of the rooms, a dead bug in someone’s bed. It wasent really big enough for 8 people the kitchen is tiny, the bed sheet in the annex had a stain on. Overall it was alright but it could have been a bit cleaner.

Lovely cottage, excellent facilities close to the heart of Lyme Regis
Our first visit to Lyme Regis was a great experience. Three generations together enjoying a seaside holiday. Appletrees was only a 5 minute walk from the seafront. The beach was very clean and had lifeguards onsite, the children, even grandma,loved playing on the sand and in the sea. The nearby attractions of fossil hunting; tram rides and Pecorama were great days out. Appletrees is a lovely welcoming cottage, the owner Charles is extremely helpful and we hope to return again soon

Why they chose this property

My father bought Appletrees as a family holiday home back in the 1950's. As my boarding school was in Taunton it was useful as a holiday get-away. Now with our family grown up we are bringing our own grandchildren down to Appletrees.

What makes this property unique

Appletrees is ideally situated close to the beach, but away from the crowds in the oldest part of Lyme Regis.
