“Wonderful place.”

Booked again next year.Widening the entrance has made all the difference to access for even large cars. An Amazon firestick is a useful addition to the TV in the lounge.. Trees slightly obscure the fireworks on Bonfire night. Our Pugs did not escape the confines of the back garden. Shame they allowed next door to build in front of the building line and to the height he has. What were the planning committee thinking of!!

“Excellent property in good location and pretty much as advertised.”

Only minor comments would be that property was clean on arrival but worktops a bit sticky/tacky. Dishwasher needed salt. Also bushes on drive need to be trimmed a little. However we were get very happy with the property and would return without hesitation

- Philip, June 2023

We're so pleased to hear that you really enjoyed your stay. Maries offers a great location to both the beaches and the town. The dishwasher tablets provided are all-in-one to prevent having to top up with rinse aid and salt. We look forward to welcoming you for a return visit. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

“Had a really fabulous week.”

Couldn’t believe how well equipped the property was, even a coffee pod machine. Location was ideal, no passing traffic on a private road! A short downhill walk to the town and beach, but a good climb back up, However there is even a shopping trolley in the cupboard!! The only down was that the fence in the rear garden is not beagle proof but only a minor issue for us. Thank you for a great week.

“The property was great, very well located and probably our favourite holiday rental we have been to.”

There were however a couple of areas that, whilst we were aware of, had an impact on our stay. Firstly, the driveway really isn't suitable for modern vehicles. We were aware that it would be tight, but as there were no pictures it's hard to judge from the comment in the details alone. Whilst we were able to get in and out, great care had to be taken. Please add more representative pictures in the property details. The second was the building work going on next door. Again we were aware of this, but it did mean we couldn't really enjoy the outside space. There were people working on the exterior and roof in full view and they had a radio on constantly. We could quite clearly hear their conversations and "banter".

- Jason, May 2023

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to be able to offer parking at the property, as parking spaces can be difficult to come by in Lyme. We do describe the parking access to ensure people are aware before booking. The adjacent building works were due to be complete by the end of May and we have reached out to the owner for an update. I have contacted the owner to make them aware of your comments. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

“Lovely property, the car access is as described very tricky in a large car but it is possible with patience and reversing skills.”

- Ian, April 2023

We're glad that you enjoyed your stay at Maries. We are pleased to offer parking onsite, a rare find in Lyme, and as you say with a little manouvering it is possible in a larger vehicle. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

“An absolutely amazing house.”

Superb from the moment we arrived, spotlessly clean and the welcome goodies were fab! Everything you could possibly need and more, the attention to detail is fantastic. Will definitely return!

“This property oozes quality.”

I have to congratulate the owners, who have put a lot of thought, care and love into this house. As soon as you enter and are greeted with the beautiful gift hamper, you are put in the right frame of mind for a wonderful stay. I also need to praise the housekeeper....it was spotlessly clean throughout...thank you. The location is wonderful with footpaths just seconds from the end of the drive. If you cannot walk to the main streets and promenade, there are car parks close by. Thank you, I cannot fault the property in any way.

Lovely little house with amazing views and perfect location, so nice that we wanted to book again for the same four nights next year but the price has gone up by approx £400, from just over £800 to just over £1200

“Absolutely loved Marie’s cottage, beautiful views, brilliant location.”

The building work next door is a little noisy and does tend to start at 8am in the morning, but we were aware of this at the time of booking. I would recommend Marie’s and would happily stay again in future.

“We've returned to Maries several times as it just suits us perfectly.”

Its clean and comfortable with wonderful views and the position is perfect adjacent to the cliff walks and within easy distance to town and seafront. We also enjoy its peaceful location. I first stayed in Maries in approx 1966/7 when I was a child with my family, my mother knew the owner at that time. I was pleased to read the history in the information file. Although the alarm is not activated it sounded on the Monday morning. On speaking to the maintenance people and entering the code it emerged that the sounder box could have a fault and the maintenance people duly informed the alarm provider. . We were slightly concerned that the alarm would go off again during our duration but fortunately not. Do hope this problem has been rectified.

The delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis has much to offer its visitors, boasting a maze of narrow streets filled with craft and antique shops, galleries and cafes. Take a stroll along the world-famous Cobb causeway overlooking the ancient harbour, where fishing trips can be enjoyed, or try your hand at fossil hunting in the area. The scenic coastal path offers excellent walking opportunities and spectacular views of the stunning Jurassic coast, whilst the gently shelving sands and sparkling waters of Lyme Bay provide the perfect place in which to relax and unwind. A holiday destination to savour!
