About this property

A stunning Victorian farmhouse, located on the coastline of the picturesque town of Rousdon, 2 Old Home Farm makes the perfect holiday home for families and groups of adults, with a wonderful garden and easy access to the Jurassic coastline and Lyme Regis.

Be in awe of this beautiful traditional farmhouse upon arrival, walking through the dappled shade of the surrounding trees to be greeted by stunning architecture. Upon entering the property, you will find yourself in a spacious sitting room with large windows and a dining area, the perfect space to enjoy a coffee as you plan your day, or a family games night around the dining table, and there is a wonderful open fire in keeping with the history of this property that will warm your feet after a long day of fossil hunting along the Jurassic coast. Carrying on the pastel theme of the sitting room, a kitchen with wonderful high ceilings and natural light welcomes you to try out cooking with local produce, with colourful tiles giving this space a homely feel and ample amenities to make your stay convenient. As the evening draws to a close, there will be plenty of rooms to choose from, starting with a king-size with a zip-link, with coral walls, a stylish yellow armchair and furniture as well as a staircase leading up to this room, where you will find another yellow armchair and homely décor, and there is a second king-size room, this one outfitted in a relaxing yellow and with ample storage as well as a stylish en-suite shower-room with grey tiles. There are also two twin rooms with zip-links that can be set up as king-size on request, both with tartan blankets and one with quirky floral wallpaper and the other a theme of seaside blue, and you can freshen up in the bathroom with a soak in the bath before heading out for the day. The garden for this property is absolutely stunning, with large shrubs adding splashes of colour amongst tall trees and a huge lawn, where you will find a table and chairs, perfect for breakfast outside as your four-legged family member reclines on the grass.

Around the local area you will find a great variety of wildlife, with stretches of woodland and pasture which you will be able to access through a footpath leading on from a private beach and coastal path, as well as easy access to several beaches including Rousdon Cliffs and Lyme Regis Fossil Beach where you will be able to explore the rocky shoreline to see what fossils hide beneath the rocks. For countryside walks and stunning scenery, visit Cannington Viaduct. The property is within easy reach of Lyme Regis, a popular seaside town full of shops, cafés and restaurants as well as two museums and an aquarium, making this the perfect family day out with walks along sandy beaches and rocky shores at the base of towering cliffs. Explore the wonders of Devon with a stay at 2 Old home Farm.

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!

    Could possibly do with the heating being put on for guests arriving.

    A perfect retreat for our family of three (adult) generations plus our dogs. All bedrooms are bright, spacious, clean and comfortable. The downstairs bedroom and shower room were perfect for Grandad. The large hallway is very large - an excellent area for dogs’ crates and bags upon arrival. The kitchen is clean, well equipped and everything works well. Good WiFi connection. The Estate is fabulous - wonderful to walk around. So much history! The path to the private beach is steep and not suitable at certain times of year or for everyone but our son said it was stunning. We, on the other hand only got so far but the track was gloriously unspoilt. We will look forward to returning.
