Enjoying a superb setting is this delightful single-storey property, Little Ascot which is close to Lyme Regis in Dorset. A wonderful holiday destination for gatherings of families and friends, this bungalow is extremely well-presented and comes equipped with everything needed for a relaxing and enjoyable break. The spacious sitting room has an extensive seating area and a feature fireplace and is warm and welcoming, making it the perfect space to gather together at the end of a long day of holidaying and catch up with tales of each other’s adventures. The kitchen is stylish and comprehensively fitted with all that is needed to cook up some fantastic food for the whole family and once dinner is prepared, serve it up in the stunning dining conservatory which offers all year round dining in a light and sunny room; this is the ideal area to pour yourself a drink, pull up a chair and tuck into some tasty food while enjoying each other’s company. If the weather allows, then you might even be able to dine alfresco on the patio area outside which offers some lovely views of the surrounding trees and greenery and really does feel like an oasis of calm. When bedtime calls, guests can make their way to any of three beautifully appointed bedrooms, two king-sizes or a twin; all are wonderfully inviting and offer a relaxing sanctuary of sleep. After a refreshing night’s sleep, hop in the shower and have a reviving coffee on the patio while you plan your day’s activities. You can easily walk into Lyme Regis along the river Lym where you will find a good selection of shops, eateries and amenities as well as a pleasant beach, harbour and causeway and an aquarium and museum. A little further away but with some beautiful views along the way, you can visit towns such as Charmouth with its Heritage Coast Centre, Seaton with its tramway and Beer known for its quarry caves or visit attractions such as Tunnel Tree Tops, the Jurassic Fun Centre, Pecorama, Forde Abbey and Gardens and Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens. A relaxing, family holiday awaits with a stay at Little Ascot.
The delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis has much to offer its visitors, boasting a maze of narrow streets filled with craft and antique shops, galleries and cafes. Take a stroll along the world-famous Cobb causeway overlooking the ancient harbour, where fishing trips can be enjoyed, or try your hand at fossil hunting in the area. The scenic coastal path offers excellent walking opportunities and spectacular views of the stunning Jurassic coast, whilst the gently shelving sands and sparkling waters of Lyme Bay provide the perfect place in which to relax and unwind. A holiday destination to savour!

Other than that it was a lovely cottage in an excellent location within walking distance for our 2 small children to get to the beach. One issue with the drain was fixed promptly by the maintenance team which was very good.

Lovely welcome pack and peaceful location. Great holiday

Beds were incredibly comfortable and shower was very easy to use. Washing machine came in useful for wet towels. Enclosed garden was ideal for our dog, although road was a little dangerous.
