About this property
Situated in a Grade II listed building, in the heart of Lyme Regis, is this fabulous, first-floor apartment, Flat 2, St Agnes House. This one bedroom holiday apartment provides excellent accommodation for up to four guests and three dogs, making it an ideal retreat for families and friends seeking a seaside escape.
An internal staircase leads to the first-floor apartment, home to a living/dining room where you can kick back and catch up on the Smart TV; there’s also a double sofa bed here to sleep a further two guests. Conjure up a hearty feast in the kitchen for the group to enjoy around the dining table. The historic character of the property has been retained and includes floor to ceiling windows with wrought iron balustrading and high ceilings which add to the feeling of light and space. Head to the bedroom to catch up on your sleep, housing a double bed. The bathroom has a small bath with a hand held shower to freshen up after a day of exploring.
The amenities of Lyme Regis are literally on your doorstep, with a host of pubs, restaurants and cafés from which to take your pick, plus attractions just as the two museums, Dinosaurland Fossil Museum and Lyme Regis Museum, only a short walk from the property. Spend time on the sandy beach and head for a stroll around the Cobb harbour, which has famously been used in several movies. Nearby lies Charmouth, an unspoilt seaside village set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with a beach that is perfect for fossil hunting! Keen walkers will be drawn to the South West Coast Path as they look out for the Golden Cap, the highest point on the south coast which affords some amazing coastal views. Also worth adding to your itinerary are the towns of Bridport, Axminster, Weymouth and Branscombe, boasting their own character, charm and number of attractions; the Axe Valley Wildlife Park and Sidmouth Donkey Sanctuary are not to be missed!

The charming seaside town of Lyme Regis, which boasts a maze of winding streets lined with craft and antique stores, galleries, and cafes, has a lot to offer tourists.

Situated at the top of the High Street and 5 minutes walk from the High Street was ideal. Unfortunately, the furnishings and general decor are now quite tired and in need of an update. The Front Door access must be addressed immediately. The key barely operates in the lock, having been presumably recut many times. It took 5-10mins on each occasion to gain entrance and it was especially unnerving to be unable to get in when arriving at midnight. You shouldn't have to resort to waking up others in the building to access it. As noted by previous guests, the flat badly needs updating. At present it feels much more like staying in a Bedsit than a Holiday Rental and that any spending is being avoided. It's fine having a welcome pack with some fudge, tea bags and biscuits, but we'd have rather had some kitchen roll and decent towels. It's a shame because we would return in an instant if the front door issue is solved and the flat gets some TLC, but we would swerve it as things stand given the long list of alternatives in Lyme Regis

We enjoyed the stay, the location is the main benefit of the property, the kitchen and particular the bathroom needs updating, also the top of the hob was filthy with previous guests food so was not cleaned well, in addition to this the front door lock was broken so not secure from outside

The flat is cosy, both the bed and furniture was comfortable and we enjoyed the big TV. The flat's location was ideal, just out of town and therefore quiet and peaceful yet a short walk to the shops and seafront. The bedroom was spacious with more than enough room for our travel cot and space for our dog's crate in the living room. There was even a view of the sea from the kitchen window. The price of the flat was within our budget and we believe it was very good value. The only thing which would be helpful as a family with a baby would be the addition of a washing machine!
