Beautiful appointed house in Lyme Regis
This was the best equipped and most comfortable holiday rental we have ever stayed in. Beautifully furnished, comfy beds and four great bathrooms so perfect for our group of 7 ladies on our annual get together. Perfectly situated for all of Lyme Regis opposite a nice pub and within 3 mins walk of the sea front with shops and restaurants. Situated in narrow street so parking needs to be in public car park after drop off but parking permit provided for 1 car for duration of stay. Just superb would highly recommend.
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023
