Settled into the quaint countryside of Uplyme, only a short distance from the popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis, Dorset, this contemporary cottage offers all of the amenities and a convenient location to make your Jurassic coast adventure perfect. With off-road parking and a wonderful living space and garden, this property is perfect for families and groups of adults alike.

Clad in slate that decorates the face of the house until it reaches halfway, changing to local stone and yellow paint with huge wooden double doors, this property will instantly capture your attention and you will be eager to discover what awaits you indoors. Find time to recline in a spacious sitting room, where an electric fire will warm your feet as you catch up on your favourite TV shows, or there is the option of a separate snug with books and a sofa, the perfect place for children to play or a quiet spot of reading. A spacious kitchen boasts contemporary furniture with sand-coloured tiles reminiscent of the beautiful local beaches, grey tiled floors and white cupboards, the perfect place to make a family meal as the handy utility takes care of your muddy cloths. You can serve your masterpiece on the dining table, also with tiles floors, as well as French windows allowing access to the beautiful garden and drawing in natural light to make the space airy. As the evening wears on, climb the staircase to find four rooms, beginning with a spacious king-size with homely décor with a touch of opulence, fitted with its own en-suite where guests can enjoy a refreshing shower before heading out for the day. A double room with sloping ceilings and large windows allows for countryside views, and two twin rooms with storage and large windows, also with sloping ceilings, are perfect for children to relax. A family bathroom with a mixture of tiles and relaxing yellow paint encourages you to enjoy a soak amongst the bubbles or use the shower for a quicker refreshment. Outside, the lawn surrounds the property, with a patio and seating area perfect for outdoor coffee, and an added raised seating area where you can enjoy a view of the stunning countryside.

With such beautiful surroundings, it would be a shame not to explore the countryside and you can do this by following a range of local trails including the picturesque River Lym footpath leading you into the town, or you can enjoy the coast through the East Devon Way. There are also local sites such as Cannington Viaduct and Langmoor and Lister Gardens where you can enjoy the countryside air and take a picnic. There is a local pub and post office close to the property, however, for greater variety, head into the town of Lyme Regis where you will find a great variety of eateries, as well as harbour and coastal walks. Visit the local museums or venture out to the Jurassic coast to search for incredible fossils. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, you will make a family holiday to remember with a stay at 28 Barnes Meadow.

The beautiful countryside surrounding the village of Uplyme, on the borders of Devon and Dorset, is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, criss-crossed by bridleways and footpaths including the East Devon Way, and providing perfect country walks and superb views. The area was chosen by TV chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall for his River Cottage HQ at Park Farm, where you can treat yourself to a great meal. Just a short drive takes you to the stunning Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis. This delightful historic seaside town boasts a maze of narrow streets, with an interesting array of shops and cafes, whilst the sandy beach lends itself to great bathing and watersports, and the bustling little harbour offers regular fishing trips, or try your hand at fossil hunting. Within an easy drive is the quaint town of Axminster, or how about a ride on the Seaton Tramway? A glorious location for a varied and interesting holiday.
