It's a great property, comfortable, cosy and very well equipped. Parking space was also very handy. Short downhill walk into Lyme Regis but as previously stated its steep on the walk back so may not be good for people with mobility issues. It wasn't a problem for us. Really nice welcome pack too. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property and we'll definitely be back.

Decorations were bright and modern with a local twist in some of the paintings/maps and objects around the apartment. Having said that the approach to the entrance was rather disappointing with very little colour and lots of weeding necessary. The hedge around the car park area could also do with a trim to allow more view of the beautiful coastline to the left of the property. There was also a rather unpleasant smell in the bathroom. We used bleach in the toilet which removed some of the smell but something maybe the toilet brush, air freshener or jost sticks did not seem to blend well!! Needs investigation. Apart from that we enjoyed our stay.
