“Lovely homely well equipped property.”

Ideal for our three generations. Upstairs bedroom and shower room perfect for our teenager. Thank you.

“Ist floor shower is much too small for an adult (tiny).”

It's adjacent toilet also too cramped. We went as a family of 6, yet there was no facility for a suitably sized washing line! Also, the door leading from the kitchen to the utility room is ridiculously too heavy which kept falling back. Why have such a heavy door? All in all, this is not a properly furnished holiday home and I would not recommend anyone to stay here.

- Derek, August 2023

We hope you enjoyed your family holiday in Lyme Regis. We have not received any previous feedback regarding the door being heavy or the washing line not being big enough but will of course make the owner aware of your comments for consideration. The property is maintained and furnished to a great standard and achieved a 4 tick rating from an independent grading assessment this year. The Lyme Bay Team We too hope you enjoyed your family holiday in Lyme Regis. The Kitchen/Utility door is a fire door and it has to close unaided, I'm sorry you struggled with it. We've recently totally refurbished the 1st floor bathroom, which I hope you agree is modern and functional. Sadly we couldn't increase the size, but we find it's a useful addition when there are 6 people staying. Thank you for your feedback regarding the washing line, we did have a rotary dryer, but listened to previous feedback where it was felt it was too big for the lower part of the patio where most people put the sun loungers out and children liked to play.

“We booked for a couple of nights but wished we had more!”

Fabulous accommodation. Spacious with everything we needed. Very clean and well presented. Lovely view of the sea! Thank you for the welcome pack which was totally unexpected for such a sort stay. A word about location. If you intend to walk into Lyme Regis be aware that whilst not a long walk (approx a mile) the hills are very steep. For us this was not an issue but for some it may be worth noting.

- Sue, July 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback, we're so pleased you enjoyed your short break. We'd love you to come back for a longer visit. Regarding the walk to the town, yes I agree for some the hill might be an issue, if this is the case in our Welcome Folder, we suggest driving to Charmouth Road car park and just walking down the steps to the sea front. We hope the lovely view is worth the walk though. Property Owner
Katie July 2023

“The cottage is very well equipped making for a very comfortable stay.”

The only thing we can think of to criticise was that the list of dates that bins are collected is out of date.

- Katie, July 2023

We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. I hadn't realised the list was out of date, thank you for drawing our attention to it. Of course you don't have to worry about taking any bins out to the road, on collection day, as they are in a bin store already there. We hope you'll visit us again soon and thank you for your positive feedback. Property Owner

“Sandpiper was extremely well presented, very clean and all essentials for our stay were provided.”

The 'Welcome Pack' was much appreciated and the contents were enjoyed throughout our stay. Thank you for providing such lovely accommodation for our holiday.

“This is the perfect holiday cottage for a fabulous reunion for 3 families who have not met since COVID!”

Super high quality everything, beautifully clean and well laid out with everything you could need. Thank you for the welcome pack - perfect for when we first arrived after a long journey. The cottage is deceptively big, with both communal and more private areas. We loved the upstairs sitting room with its views of Lyme Bay.

Jen & Family Apr 2023

“We were unlucky with the weather but lucky with the accommodation!”

Everything was clean, comfortable and well presented. The thoughtful Welcome Hamper was much appreciated. Loved the beautiful views from the upstairs living room. Would love to return!

“We have had a lovely week in this attractive and well equipped holiday house.”

Thanks for the Welcome Hamper too. We spent a lot of time looking for fossils and went home with quite a collection.

Paul October 2022

“It’s not very good when on the first night water comes flooding Through the roof of the utility room downstairs.”

Okay the guy who came out to help us was really good but the Sykes cottages people never Bothered to call us the next day to check if we were okay, they just left us to it.

- Paul, October 2022

We are sorry for this unforeseen issue, but we're pleased we were able to rectify this immediately. Apologies if you were expecting a follow up call, we generally leave guests on holiday to reach out to us if you have any issues, however we certainly take your feedback on board. Thank you, and we're glad the service when required was to a high level. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

“Lovely, comfortable property with great views.”

Parking excellent. Location good. Well equipped. Beautifully quiet and peaceful. Couple of plumbing issues (downstairs toilet; upstairs tap), but holiday company were polite and responsive and corrected the toilet problem. Good information folder; very helpful. Happy holiday! Would recommend. House and area well worth visiting.

- Victoria, September 2022

Penny July 2022

“Had a lovely stay thank you.”

Great view from upstairs lounge and plenty of room in the house plus great to have parking plus a laundry room. Neighbour very friendly too. Enjoyed the walk down the steps to the beach and was about a 15 min walk to the town. Steep uphill walk back as described am definitely fitter now !

- Penny, July 2022
Sarah July 2022

“A wonderful holiday property, welcoming and extremely well equipped!”

Great views from the lounge upstairs and a sheltered/shaded covered area to eat outside. The welcome pack was much appreciated, especially the milk in the fridge to enjoy a cuppa on our arrival! Three generations enjoyed a very relaxing holiday! Thank you! (Just a suggestion: would thinner duvets for the summer months be a consideration.)

- Sarah, July 2022

Thank you for the lovely feedback, we're delighted you enjoyed your stay. It's wonderful that 3 generations of your family were able to stay together. Property Owner
