Overview
Property code: DC077

Set in a tranquil spot in a pretty Dorset village, this attractive and cosy cottage offers lovely accommodation for a family or a couple seeking a perfect base for exploring the Lyme Regis area.

Charmouth is a relaxing coastal village set in a delightful part of the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has a stunning beach which is a fantastic spot for fossil hunting. The historic town of Lyme Regis (3 miles) is known for its associations with Jane Austen and Henry Fielding and is home to the famous 13th-century Cobb Harbour. The town also offers a range of places to eat and drink, as well as independent shops, a theatre, cinema and a beautiful beach with views over Lyme Bay. The area makes an ideal gateway to Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, and there are many miles of coastal, rural and clifftop walks to enjoy, with Golden Cap just 6 miles away.

On entering this light, attractive and welcoming 18th-century cottage which is located up a steep, quiet lane, you will find yourself in the spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The delightful lounge is a lovely space to relax in, with comfortable seating, Smart TV/DVD, music system, a warming wood burner and a large selection of DVDs. There is a charming dining area and the kitchen is fully equipped with an induction hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher and fridge. The freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer are stored in the adjacent utility area. Upstairs there are two cosy bedrooms: one double room with a TV and glimpses towards the sea and a twin room overlooking the garden. Please note the twin room has reduced height in the eaves. You will also find a shower room complete with shower and WC on the first floor.

Heading outside, there is a small courtyard to the front of the property. The pretty back garden is reached via a few steps and has a sunny terrace with garden furniture, a BBQ and a large, sloped lawn area. From here you can enjoy an al fresco meal and admire the fabulous views of the surrounding countryside. Parking is available on the lane, which leads to a small nature reserve.

The cottage is good and the rooms nice and fresh and airy, particularly upstairs. Very comfortable. Patio catches sun in summer. White goods and electrical equipment all good and useful. Plenty of cutlery and crockery but somewhat lacking in bowls and containers when self-catering. It was generally clean but some vital bits had been overlooked in tRead morehe bathroom. The hill could be a problem for some. The welcome pack was minimal and we felt it lacked the personal touch of some places we've stayed. Hide

Fantastic cottage with all that you could need. We couldn't find any improvements needed the cottage had everything and more with all the games to entertain you if the weather wasn't good. We had the best weather after the not so good August so having the garden from early morning coffees till late night drinks was perfect for us. The daily exercisRead moree to come up the hill was also good because the views from the bedrooms was fantastic. Thank you Hide

Very clean, lovely soft furnishings and new carpets. Quiet and relaxing. The cottage is on a very steep road, but if you can cope with that then it's a short walk to the seafront. There's a lovely wood burning stove in the living room which I imagine would be great during a winter stay.
