    The walk from the house into Lyme Regis was further and more challenging than we were led to believe. The house was very well equipped and the oven worked perfectly! Excellent base for a wide range of activities and interests in the Jurassic coast. Thank you.

    When recycling and food waste are collected. ( we had to throw ours into general waste as too much for food bin) I didn’t realise until sat morning that it had been emptied some time Friday. Also a long handled broom, mop and bucket would be helpful for clearing up spills etc after meals. Also not sure when garden bank was landscaped why steps were not put in so children can access grasses area easily without having to go out of site.

    This meant that it was impossible to watch the superb very large tv that had been installed. Frustrating! Facilities were very good, beds were comfy however this was spoilt somewhat by very uncomfortable hollowfibre pillows and the wrong size duvet cover on our duvet. Kitchen facilities were very good with lots of china and glassware and cooking pans. Overall a lovely house for a family holiday.
