About this property
Port House is a stunning property which enjoys an enviable position, just a stone's throw from the water's edge, in the highly sought-after and picturesque coastal town of Lyme Regis, Dorset, famous for its historic Cobb Harbour and glorious beaches, which are all nearby. Located on the stunning Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site and within the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty this is an excellent choice for families or groups of friends looking to enjoy a seaside break at any time of the year.
This extremely well-presented accommodation is arranged over three floors and has been cleverly designed to take full advantage of the wonderful coastal location. Uniquely styled throughout, the stunning open plan living/dining room/kitchen is located on the second floor and enjoys lovely sea views, taking in the harbour and along the esplanade. With vaulted ceilings and skylight windows which flood the room with light, this is a fantastic sociable space with a stylish and well-equipped kitchen and colourful furnishings throughout. Take a step outside to the adjoining balcony where the views continue creating the perfect spot to enjoy a ‘sundowner’ while you soak in the sea air.
When it comes to bedtime, two of the three bedrooms are located on the first floor, a spacious king-size room and a twin room with en-suite shower room, and zip/link beds providing the flexibility to become a super-king size room. The family bathroom, with stylish panelling and freestanding rolltop bath is also located on this floor. The third bedroom, a stylish and bright double room, is located on the ground floor with doors opening onto the rear courtyard garden, and a further bathroom is also located on this floor.
When it comes to location, Port House is ideally positioned to enjoy it all with the promenade and iconic Cobb Harbour only a short, level walk away. Only moments from the house, the seafront, with its family-friendly beaches, is popular with bathers and perfect for those looking to enjoy a traditional seaside holiday. For those wishing to get out on the water, paddle board and kayak hire is available on the beach with regular boat excursions and fishing trips running from the harbour.
Food lovers will be spoilt for choice when it comes to eating out with a fantastic range of restaurants, pubs and cafés close by, including fine dining for special occasions, great pop-up options serving local food, and of course, no trip to the coast is complete without trying some of the local fish and shellfish which is readily available. Why not take a visit to neighbouring Charmouth where you can try your hand at fossil hunting or learn about the area’s rich fossil history at the Heritage Centre on the seafront? Popular with walkers, the South West Coastal Path takes in the famous Jurassic Coast and rewards with far-reaching and stunning coastal sea views as well as taking pretty fishing villages such as Beer and Branscombe.
For those seeking an unforgettable seaside holiday, Port House is the perfect choice.
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!
