Waking up in the morning at Rona Cottage couldn’t be more pleasant with time for a refreshing shower before stepping outside to the front courtyard area where you can sit at the patio table and enjoy breakfast or coffee alfresco while planning your day’s activities. Talking of activities, there is so much to see and do in Lyme Regis, it’s hard to know where to begin. Take a stroll into the town of Lyme Regis and browse around the gorgeous selection of shops, boutiques, cafes, bars and restaurants before heading down to the beach, Cobb Harbour and Causeway and maybe even check out the museum and aquarium. Jump in the car and head out for the day to attractions such as Seaton Tramway, Beer Quarry Caves, Tunnel Tree Tops and Forde Abbey and Gardens. If you enjoy walks with stunning views then head out along the 630 mile South West Coastal or pack a picnic and go fossil hunting at beaches such as Charmouth, Chesil, West Bay and Weymouth. Rona Cottage offers guests a memorable and enjoyable holiday.
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!

Nice to see that a minor improvement suggestion from last year had been acted upon, and please don't be tempted to pension off the time-worn leather armchair in the living room, by the way - it's comfortable and characterful. Thanks, all, for a much-appreciated break.

However when we arrived in August 2023 we were shocked at the state of Rona cottage. We were met with bird poo all over the windows which looked like it had been there for some time. The front door was in poor condition and the lock needed attention. The cottage was not very clean. There was black mould in the downstairs shower room and every bedroom stank of perspiration and was musty. Some if the cups were unclean and there was soot constantly falling down from an unswept chimney. The fridge was in a poor state of repair and was constantly iced up with water dripping on our food. The bedding and quilts were not fresh and the stair carpet dirty and full of fluff and fog hair. In the lounge the sofa smelled badly and there was a leather chair that had seen better days. Recommend a deep clean of this property some serious maintenance work and replacement fridge. It would also be better for clients if the washer machine worked and the washing line was lowered so you could peg out washing. We were really disappointed with the poor state of this cottage and would not recommend this property
