Guests say
1 Wellhayes offers stunning views and a prime location close to the beach and local amenities in Lyme Regis. Guests appreciate the property's proximity to eateries and the sea, with the added bonus of a balcony and outside space. While the charm of the location is a highlight, some guests have noted that the property could benefit from updates and a deep clean.
Several reviews mention issues with cleanliness, including cobwebs, dust, and sand in the bed. The property appears to require a more thorough cleaning regime to meet guest expectations.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach, stunning views, and local amenities. However, some guests noted noise and difficulty finding the property, slightly impacting the score.
Guests find the property comfortable overall, but there are comments about the need for better mattresses and sofas. The second bedroom is noted to be small, suggesting the property is more suited for couples or small families.
The property is described as well-equipped, but several reviews highlight issues with maintenance and the need for updates, particularly in the bathroom and kitchen. The mismatched crockery and cutlery also suggest a need for improvement.
While a welcome pack is mentioned positively in one review, there is insufficient information to assess overall thoughtfulness consistently across reviews. Therefore, this score is set to null, and guests should note that such amenities are not guaranteed.

The only problem was the shower drain was blocked so flooded the wet room immediately so had limited shower use over the three days we were there⦠It was a little hard to find the property but we asked a few locals to direct us! The rest of the stay was very comfortable although the second bedroom is incredibly cramped but weather beds were very comfortable, especially the double bedroom.

The welcome pack was such a lovely touch, the property was clean and perfectly located. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony looking out to sea and enjoying the sunshine and sea air. The location is perfect for access to the beach and surrounding area.
