About this property

Lyme Bay View is a wonderful family home located in Lyme Regis which enjoys far reaching views over the town itself and the Dorset coastline beyond.

Beautifully presented, this spacious, four-bedroom abode can accommodate up to 8 guests, making it suitable for larger families or groups of friends looking to enjoy all that this much-loved seaside town has to offer. A pet-friendly cottage, dogs are welcome too, ideal for those looking to enjoy the many coastal walks, including the renowned Southwest Coastal Path and the beaches, many of which welcome dogs.

Steps lead from the parking spaces to the house where you will get your first sight of the impressive views evident throughout. Bright and welcoming, the lounge is furnished with sumptuous sofas where you can recline in front of the flame effect gas fire. A separate snug with doors opening onto the rear garden is perfect for sitting quietly with a book and enjoying your morning coffee before embarking on your day.

Often the heart of the home, the kitchen/diner in this house is no exception. Well-equipped and furnished, it is the ideal sociable space to gather everyone together for mealtimes.

The four beautifully styled bedrooms are located on the first floor and include a spacious super-king-size bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a king-size with en-suite shower room. The second king-size bedroom and the twin bedroom are serviced by the family bathroom which has a bath with a thermostatic shower over.

Guests staying at Lyme Bay View will certainly want to make the most of the amazing views, which can be fully appreciated from the roof terrace at the front of the property. Bedecked with an outdoor table and chairs, this spot has alfresco mealtimes calling while you sit and watch the late evening sun highlighting the Golden Cap cliffs in the distance.

At the rear of the house, there is a spacious patio area and a further terraced garden with pretty coastal styled planting and mature shrubs.

When it comes to a holiday in Lyme Regis, venture out and fully enjoy your surroundings. A short stroll alongside the river walk will take you into the town centre with its many independent shops and attractions. A favourite with families, the sandy beach is the ideal spot for swimming or sitting in the sun, while those who enjoy more active beach time activities can try their hand at paddleboarding or take a boat trip from the famous Cobb harbour and appreciate the breathtaking Jurassic coast from the sea.

When you don’t fancy cooking in the evening, head to one of the many restaurants and pubs, such as SWIM on the seafront or The Pilot Boat, both serving a great selection of local food and beverages.

In an area renowned for its fossils there are many related activities to enjoy, whether you want to soak up the history at The Lyme Regis Museum or learn about the area’s geology at The Charmouth Coast Heritage Centre situated on the beach in neighbouring Charmouth. Coastal fossil finds are waiting to be discovered so why not join one of the local fossil hunting walks where you can pick up handy tips on the best locations to find your own ammonite on the shore?

Further afield, Durdle Door is one of Dorset's most photographed and iconic landmarks or perhaps take a short drive to Beer. A pretty sheltered cove with a backdrop of limestone cliffs and a long fishing heritage which is still very much alive today, offering a colourful population of fishing boats, fresh fish and Beer crab for sale, and mackerel fishing trips.

With so much to see and do, Lyme Bay View makes a wonderful getaway for an adventure the whole family can enjoy.

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!

    The steep steps up to the house mentioned in the original description resulted in a party of guests much fitter after just one week. Only hiccup came in the shape of a single wheelie bin when two are essential for 8 guests. If the grandkids maintain their lust for fossils we will return. Thank you

    The garden is lovely and well maintained by a gardener who came whilst we were staying. All the bedrooms and bathrooms are lovely and bright and really clean. The kitchen has everything you could need. We really enjoyed making use of the balcony as we were lucky enough to experience good weather. My only suggestion would be a parasol for the balcony. The welcome pack was a really lovely touch as was the milk in the fridge which meant we could have a cup of tea without having to wait for shopping to arrive. The walk down to Lyme Regis was lovely along the river path - the hills back up are quite steep but manageable. We all had a lovely week.
