“This property is not a 4 person cottage.”

The main bedroom barely fits a double bed & you can hardly get to other side of bed. It is very pricey for what it is - compared with other properties we have stayed in. Bed was rock hard & we didn’t sleep well. The outside space is tiny which we could tell from photo however was not inviting at all & our poor old dog couldn’t even climb the huge dangerous steps to it. Parking was a nightmare. The facilities in the second bedroom consisted of a futon which looked small & getting to the top ...

The main bedroom barely fits a double bed & you can hardly get to other side of bed. It is very pricey for what it is - compared with other properties we have stayed in. Bed was rock hard & we didn’t sleep well. The outside space is tiny which we could tell from photo however was not inviting at all & our poor old dog couldn’t even climb the huge dangerous steps to it. Parking was a nightmare. The facilities in the second bedroom consisted of a futon which looked small & getting to the top bed would only be possible for young child although steps pretty dangerous. Wardrobe could not hang dresses in as blocked off & contained a huge bag - rail in second bedroom was not attached to wall. The small burner on hob did not work. Lighting was terrible especially trying to cook. Needs better bulbs for sure & couldn’t get all the lounge lights to work. Bathroom was lovely, bright & spotless & kitchen clean & had everything we needed although no cupboard space for storing anything making it cluttered. Road was in extremely busy & very noisy. In summary very cute clean cottage but very tiny.

“Hey, we did love the stay.”

Great area. The only thing we would like to ask if it can be fixed it was the patio steps. Very steep and not safe for someone with a bit unbalance.or low mobility.

- M Paulina, September 2023

Thank you very much for your helpful feedback. We are pleased you had a lovely stay. We are addressing the issue of the steps at the rear of the property over this winter ready for guests next year. We hope to see you at Anne’s Pantry again soon. Property Owner

“We had a wonderful stay at Anne’s Pantry in Uplyme.”

It was very well located for daily visits down to Lyme Regis and the surrounding areas. The cottage was very comfortable, full of character and made very good use of the space available so as not to feel small or cramped at all. Our girls (10 and 5) enjoyed the split level second bedroom, the elder of whom particularly loving her elevated sleeping platform. It was nice to have a small garden at the rear to sit and enjoy the nice weather in. Overall, we had a lovely week in Uplyme. The only (very minor) negatives would be the parking situation. With no allocated spaces, there was no guarantee of a nearby space, which when loading/ unloading or coming back from a long day out, meant a slightly tricky walk alongside a fairly busy road with no pavements. Not a huge issue, but certainly something families with younger children should be aware of. As mentioned, these are not complaints at all, just observations- we really did have a fantastic time.

“The steps to the outside area are very steep.”

I think it would benefit future listing describing this better. Lovely decor and really cosy place.

Thank you for your feedback. We are looking to do some renovation work to the rear garden over this winter period including addressing the steps up to the courtyard. It will also include making the courtyard area more dog friendly. Property Owner

“Thank you for a wonderful holiday, with a very generous Welcome Pack to start the break.”

Accommodation very clean and we'll equipped. The only slight negative are the steps up to the roof bedroom which are far too steep, therefore we didn't consider it a Sleeps 4. Location excellent with the shaded river walk into Lyme a welcome alternative on a hot sunny day! Would highly recommend.

About the location

UPLYME

Lyme Regis 1 mile

The beautiful countryside surrounding the village of Uplyme, on the borders of Devon and Dorset, is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, criss-crossed by bridleways and footpaths including the East Devon Way, and providing perfect country walks and superb views. The area was chosen by TV chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall for his River Cottage HQ at Park Farm, where you can treat yourself to a great meal. Just a short drive takes you to the stunning Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis. This delightful historic seaside town boasts a maze of narrow streets, with an interesting array of shops and cafes, whilst the sandy beach lends itself to great bathing and watersports, and the bustling little harbour offers regular fishing trips, or try your hand at fossil hunting. Within an easy drive is the quaint town of Axminster, or how about a ride on the Seaton Tramway? A glorious location for a varied and interesting holiday.

Note: This property has 2 bedrooms for up to 4 people. The sleeping platform/deck has a double mattress with very limited headroom and is suitable for older children and teenagers. Note: Take care when using steps to the property as they are very steep
