Very well equipped and a lovely welcome goody bag! Excellent attention to detail in all respects. We all loved the garden and the grandchildren particularly enjoyed the nautical theme, as they were pirates! Thank you!

The property is easily accessible as it is on the main road to Uplyme There are two car park spaces and charging facility The property it self features an upstairs lounge area and massive kitchen adjoining. With in the kitchen area there is a large dining table and sofa as well as a well equipped kitchen with all modern appliances and of that a utility space with washer etc The three bedrooms are all well equipped with high quality showers in all of the 3 bedrooms This property was really lovely both because of the modern and light living space and cleanliness. Off the lounge area a raised patio gives you a pleasant place after a busy day. We would recommend the property and look forward to returning again One thing to consider is that care would be required if young kids are part of your group as the garden is steep and can accessed from the upper patio

We had a lovely stay and the weather was great as a bonus. Near to Lyme Regis within walking distance but a public bus available. Feedback, size of the towels, I would have bought my own if I had known they were small - I think bath sheet size would be good. Secondly, the balcony got a lot of sunshine in the morning, sometimes unable to sit there as too hot. The table does have a hole for a parasol so would not take much to provide one for guests.
