“We absolutely loved our stay at 5 St Michael’s House!”

The apartment is spacious and well laid out. The shared areas (hallway, stairs etc…) are beautifully well maintained. The neighbours were quiet and friendly. Parking was easy to access and right outside the front door. The apartment was well equipped, the beds were comfortable, the shower always stayed hot (despite having two teenage daughters who take long showers!). There was plenty of storage in the bedrooms.

The apartment is spacious and well laid out. The shared areas (hallway, stairs etc…) are beautifully well maintained. The neighbours were quiet and friendly. Parking was easy to access and right outside the front door. The apartment was well equipped, the beds were comfortable, the shower always stayed hot (despite having two teenage daughters who take long showers!). There was plenty of storage in the bedrooms. I loved that the TV was set up with Netflix and Amazon! Most of all, I absolutely adored the terrace and its amazing views!! I could have sat out there all day! We were lucky to have very good weather, most of the time during our stay and I really enjoyed laying on the sun loungers and listening to the sea. It was wonderful. Only improvements would be; please leave more than one toilet roll, more than one tea towel, some surface spray/cleaner and cleaning clothes. Also, a guest book or recommendations book, where people can provide information about local restaurants, places to visit etc… would be nice

“We were surprised that there was no fresh milk, Washing up liquid sponge or brush.”

No kitchen roll, one toilet roll only 3 small tumblers ( for potentially 4 guests) otherwise wine glasses. The flat however was in lovely position.

“We loved the apartment and especially the excellent views from the fantastic decking area.”

“It’s a lovely comfortable and clean apartment.”

The big pull is the deck especially if it’s sunny and the fabulous view from the kitchen and lounge. The only problem was the front bedroom sash window was heavy and got stuck which hurt my back trying to open it. My own fault in pushing it, but it could do with checking out. We would recommend it.

“A fabulous place to stay in beautiful Lyme Regis!”

The views from the large roof terrace are stunning. The interior is very spacious and comfortable and we loved our week's stay here. The contents of the welcome pack were much enjoyed, thank you! The kitchen is well equipped; we would have liked table mats but that was the only thing we thought was 'missing'. We loved the location and proximity to the town centre and the beautiful Langmoor and Lister Gardens. It's good to have an allocated parking space. We'd love to return for another holiday.

“The apartment is comfortable and very clean but lacks some attention to detail.”

There are almost no consumables. Please provide plenty of washing up liquid, dish wash tabs and laundry powder. The soap in the bathroom was almost done when we arrived. The welcome basket was teabags and Prosecco! No milk though! The bath towels are small and not very good and there was only one tea towel. Crockery was a bare minimum of one of each item x 4 but in some cases not even 4 of each type of cutlery or glassware were present. There were no bin bags for rubbish. The water temperature runs hot and cold in the shower and the extractor fan needs attention or replacement as it just doesn't work. The wardrobe doors in the twin room are largely obstructed by the beds so you can't open them fully and have to shimmy down a tiny gap to access your clothes. At £1400 plus per week, these omissions/issues seem penny pinching. The view is so spectacular from the deck that people will rebook regardless but given the hosts display their own hotel details in the apartment perhaps they should add a bit more love and attention to No 5 too.

We will ensure your comments are referred to the owners as they provide the welcome hamper and guest consumables. The Lyme Bay Team Thank you Catherine for you review of Flat 5 St Michael's Court. We do not provide washing power but do leave 4 tabs - which is enough for a couple of washes . There is plenty of washing up liquid in the cupboard and the black bin liners are kept in the hall cupboard. The welcome basket has two prosecco, two Burts crisps, two waters and two packets of biscuits - plenty of tea also specialist tea and milk pods are in there too . There are 4 items of crockery etc and 1 tea towel which of course can be washed along with the towels for longer stays. Thank you for the feedback on the shower and the extractor is attached to the light when on so if the light isnt on the extractor will not work. With very best wishes Rosemarie Property Owner

“A lovely property with great outside space and gorgeous views.”

Allocated parking space, 5 minutes walk to the beach, lots of restaurants and shops nearby, and a great location to explore the Jurassic Coast. We would happily go back to this property, and explore some more. Lyme Regis is also beautiful, with great beaches too.

“Another lovely week in Lyme Regis.”

I have stayed at this property many times over the years and it is in one of the best locations overlooking the bay. the large outside space is an excellent facility, especially if you are feeling like having a lazy day. However, the only thing that lets the apartment down is that the paint on the walls, front door and skirtings is now looking very tired and is badly marked and scuffed, which gives a poor impression on arriving. The windows in the bedrooms need to be looked at. The sash window overlooking the car park is hard to open and if you do manage to get it open it won't stay open and closes under its own weight. The some of the windows in the side bedroom, wouldn't open at all. This might be an issue if the weather is hot. These are minor quibbles, but are the difference between a 4 and 5 star review.

The property

A stylish apartment on the second floor, 5 St Michaels House is conveniently located in the heart of the vibrant town of Lyme Regis. One of six apartments in the Georgian building, 5 St Michaels House offers expansive sea views of the Jurassic coastline and is close to a wealth of popular restaurants, independent shops, the famous Cobb harbour and the beaches, ideal for those seeking a seascape. The apartment sleeps four people and is recommended for couples, groups of friends, and families. The open-plan living area will serve as your social hub, where you can cook meals in the well-equipped kitchen, dine, unwind in front of the fireplace. Step outside to the balcony and outdoor roof terrace for some alfresco dining and the chance to soak in your lovely surroundings and the sea views. When it comes to bedtime, there is a choice of two tastefully decorated bedrooms, which include a king-size and a twin, serviced by the contemporary bathroom, which includes a bath with shower over. When you’re ready to explore Lyme Regis, eat at one of the local favourites, such as Tom's Restaurant, Hix's Oyster & Fish House, Robin Wylde. A short walk through Langmoor Gardens will take you to the seafront and beach. For individuals interested in both history and archaeology, the Lyme Regis Museum and Dinosaurland Fossil Museum are recommended. On your travels, take a trip to the picturesque fishing village of Beer and amble around the art galleries or stop for a spot of lunch overlooking the beach and watch the fishermen unload their daily catch. Abbotsbury s also worthy of a visit, with its sub-tropical gardens or swannery making a great day out. The South West coastal footpath taking in Golden Cap, arguably the highest point on the south coast is an ideal route for ardent walkers and offers some amazing coastal views. Make memories in Dorset with a stay at 5 St Michaels House.
