It would have been useful to have instructions for the cooker which we had difficulty getting to grips with.

The apartment is in the basement of a modern development, with secure, gated parking and a separate side gate for easy access to the path that runs down into the centre of Lyme Regis. There is a small outside area, although is shaded in the evening, along with a communal garden area for the whole block of apartments. It takes about ten minutes to walk down the hill into the town or down the Cobb hill to the sandy beach. Obviously it takes a bit longer to walk back up but we were able to enjoy a walk down to the seafront before breakfast and not having to pay for parking in the town can save you up to £15 a day. The property is a good size, comfortable and surprisingly quiet, although there can be some road noise, but this is not intrusive. I would definitely stay at his property again when visiting Lyme Regis.
