Guests say
2 Argyle House in Lyme Regis is praised for its excellent beachfront location and views, with many guests planning return visits. The property's balcony and welcome pack are appreciated, though some guests note the interior and furnishings could be refreshed. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the property generally provides a comfortable stay.
Most guests find the property clean, but there are isolated complaints about cleanliness, such as hair on bedside tables and dirty kitchenware. The majority, however, do not mention significant issues.
The location is consistently lauded for its proximity to the beach and town amenities, making it a highlight for many guests.
Comfort receives mixed reviews. While some guests find the property comfortable, others mention uncomfortable sofas and noise from other occupants as detractors.
Facilities are generally well-received, especially the well-equipped kitchen. However, maintenance issues with doors, a non-functioning heated towel rail, and dated interiors slightly lower the score.
Guests appreciate the welcome pack and the provision of essentials like tea and coffee. However, it should be noted that such gifts, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

But there was no clock! However that didnât spoil our stay. Fantastic location with the added benefit of being a minute from the Kiosk whose croissant and hot chocolate are something else! Also almost next to Toms, a seriously good restaurant . Should we return to Lyme Regis then we would love to stay again at 2 Argyle House . Thank you for helping make our short break at the seaside an enjoyable one

Being wood they shrink/swell with wet weather, but we never felt really comfortable trying to close them hard. Across the flat there are a couple of instructions regarding rubbish pickup and bags, and they are slightly different. We left too early on a Sunday to contact anyone, but living in a seaside town we know how important it is to get bins correct (seagulls etc) and we were a little stressed about if we had done it properly. Everything else was just as described . Really nice stat
