    Was nice to watch the sunset from the lounge and hear the waves when you’re in bed. The private parking space was very handy for unloading your luggage. And we loved the welcome pack! (cookies, fudge and Dorset coffee, tea, fresh apple juice) The location was quiet a peaceful but only a 2 min walk to the beach and a 2 min walk down the road to the center of town! The log burner in the corner was so fun! Especially as we don’t have one at home. Everything you needed was ready to go so was easy to use. When we cooked at home the kitchen had everything you could possibly need! Though there are so many restaurants to choose from and they are all fantastic. Nice that dogs are allowed too - so hard to find a good property that caters for smaller members of the family! We loved it so much we’re booking again in August. I had some reservations due to a comment saying the property felt damp - whatever was causing that has clearly been sorted, it felt, fresh , well maintained and cared for. We can’t wait to go back.

    Arriving at sunset definitely had its perks. We arrived to a welcome pack which was totally unexpected. Included were local sweets and treats. The property is well maintained and very clean. Fully functioning kitchen with everything you need to cook yourself. The beach and town are a short walk away which makes it easy to come and go as you wish. Lots of restaurants and pubs with friendly staff and a Tesco express to get all your essentials. Have already recommended to friends and family and will definitely be booking again. 10/10

    It was a cold sleeting day when we arrived and the bungalow felt very cold inside but there was a log burner in the main room with everything to light it up and logs (we did replace everything we used) and we soon had a lovely fire which warmed the place up, and once we found out how all the radiators worked the place kept lovely and warm all week. The bungalow was really nice with a seaside theme and had everything we needed, the sofas were comfortable as were the beds, blackout blinds kept it nice and dark and was very peaceful at night. A lovely welcome pack was left which had some good things in it plus some milk in the fridge. The best thing about this bungalow was how close it was to the main town and the beach with a beautiful view over the bay and we woke up to some amazing sun rises. There is a nice garden which our dogs loved and also their walks on the beach. New this year dogs are allowed off the leads on the main beach until April, it was the reason we decided to come to Lyme Regis this spring. I don't think I should fail to mention the building work being done opposite and also the week we were there next door was also having ground work done so there was lots of banging drilling and music playing from a radio, most of the week they were doing the roof as the weather was fair and we did feel the need to keep the blinds closed that side of the bungalow to stop them looking in on us. On 2 occasions we had to wait to get out as there were lorries blocking the lane while loading building materials and a dumper truck. I completely understand that this is nothing to do with the owners and we still enjoyed our holiday. It didn't bother us too much in the day as we went out. Also both bins were full when we arrived, there is a little sign which said 'Bin day Tuesday' but no instructions as to where to leave them, although with the flats next door I couldn't think where!! On Monday as we were going out we saw a binman walk up and persuaded him to take the green recycle bin (as that was all he was collecting) but mentioned he doesn't normally take commercial waste. On Tuesday we did see a bin van drive up but they never took the black bin and we weren't quick enough to run out, So the bin is now completely full. We would definitely stay here again and look forward to returning at some time.
