John
Great location with parking right outside the apartment and feels very secure behind the electric gates. Not sure why its only listed to sleep 4 considering that there is also a pull out double sofa bed in the living room. The fridge doesn't seem to get as cold as I'd expect. Over the week, we threw away 3 bottles of milk that had turned to cheese before the best before date. The electric hob needs a sign on the wall or on the side of the microwave advising that the isolation switch is actually hidden behind microwave. We were about to call the maintenance number when we finally discovered why the hob wouldn't turn on. An extra key for the rear garden gate would have also been helpful as our party of 4 didn't all come and go at the same time. We would definitely come back again but as with many of the other holiday rentals in Lyme Regis, the prices are often quite ridiculous over the school holidays weeks.

Pillows and mattress in main bedroom were unacceptable - raised immediately and then daily during the holiday but Skyes couldn't have been less interested. We ended up exhausted and with muscle pain (neck and back) due to lack of sleep and despite numerous phone calls and emails they refused to swap the pillows even though I sent pictures which clearly showed the poor quality. The mattress has huge dips in each side and then lumps in the middle and by the head - again I sent pictures which clearly showed the huge dips but they didn't care. Broken blind on arrival in main bedroom. Patio door in lounge didn't open and we stayed during a heatwave (I see in the guest book that this was also raised back in March). Property was dirty and dusty. Leaflets etc in the drawer was at least 2 years out of date. No instructions for the oven etc. We paid £2000 for the week. I would advise you spend your money elsewhere. Our holiday was totally ruined and wouldn't wish anyone else to experience what we had to as the owners evidently don't care judging by the blunt responses we received from them via Skyes. Have asked for some compensation for our ruined stay but again they aren't interested and have refused. Customer service was awful. There's actually no one to contact in Lyme Regis / Lyme Bay Holidays - everything goes through to Skyes in Chester. Email responses were quite rude at times. Will never book through them again. It would be helpful if they allowed me to upload pictures to go along with this review so you could see the dreadful quality of the lumpy, ripped pillows, mattress, broken blind and lack of cleanliness.

We eventually found the âonâ switch hidden behind the microwave after 20 minutes of trying to find an oven manual - please provide one. We tried to ring your office on that day (Sunday) and no one answered.- there should be a point of contact every day.
