Holiday Apartments in Lyme Regis

What our customers say about their holidays

  View was tremendous and this year we had the added bonus of the end of the jubilee fireworks which we watched from the balcony.

  But, the apartment was really let down by the decor which was dull and dowdy. The bed was too low and too small and, considering the room size, could cope with a king size bed. The fitted wardrobes were of low quality, looked like painted hardwood. There was a slight musty smell even though we had the balcony doors open a lot of the time. And, the first thing we saw when arriving at the apartment was a tatty notice asking us to remove our shoes as the carpet had just been cleaned! We did not see any mention of this requirement when booking the apartment. Maybe a darker carpet would be better or more rugs. Also, this questionnaire should have been sent to the person that did the initial booking! On the plus side the kitchen was well equipped and a welcome pack is always nice but it would have been better to have contained some bread. Unfortunately also left in the apartment was 2 large laundry bags in the middle of the kitchen floor. Not in our way and couldn’t be bothered to find number to get in touch. On the other hand. a welcome text from the owner or company could have provided an opportunity to reply to this oversight.

  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.

  Really loved our stay and we had a wonderful time.

  We were very impressed and grateful for the provision of smaller size children's cutlery. Two minor things that *are* super minor - the kitchen could do with some more glasses; there's a lot of wine glasses, but not a lot of juice/water glasses. Secondly, we were only given two large towels and two hand towels in total for 4 people. It was fine as we had our own beach towels etc, but it would have been nice for more shower towels. All that being said, this was the best holiday we have had in Lyme Regis; we loved the balcony, loved the view, loved the location and the quick access to Monmouth Beach for fossils as well as the swimming beach. We very much enjoyed being able to watch all the Lifeboat Week displays from the balcony.

  Love the property having all that is needed for a lovely break.

  Never really worked out where the garage is, might be a good idea to include a street map with this in the property info book. Giving the cost of parking even in disabled bays could lyme bay holidays not offer as part of the booking cost a weekly parking pass ? Would have been nice to be warned about the disruptive works outside as this made access a challenge for my disabled wife which kind of defeated the choosing of this property being at the bottom of Lyme, also being wakened early by the soothing sounds of a pneumatic hammer very relaxing. Wouldn't normally expect to have to undertake housekeeping duties ( the stripping of beds, collecting towels ) to be our job having paid for a holiday ? maybe rethink this going forwards.

  The apartment was perfect!

  Being disabled it was great being all set out on one level and so close to all the local amenities and Monmouth Beach so my Assistance Dog could have his afternoons off and play in the sea! The only problem I had was collecting the keys! There was no way I could get up the hill and all the taxis weren't running until 5pm so I had a lot of waiting around to do. Thankfully, on the day I left, a couple I had made friends with, returned my keys for me as I was worrying about how I could do it! All in all I had a wonderful time and will definitely be back if there was a way of getting the keys without going up the hill to collect them! Thank you!
