“Great property.”

A bit of maintenance needed. Shower curtain needs a wash as it has lots of mould at the bottom. New whisk needed. Three clocks in cottage need fixing. We love the cottage this was our 4th stay there

“The mattresses badly need replacing.”

The one in the small double room is hard as rocks and mouldy ( could be serious for someone with health issues) The other mattresses are over soft. If guests cannot get a healthy good nights sleep it can ruin a holiday.The microwave cannot be timed as the control is either on or off. The garden is not dog friendly as unless you have a small car the gate cannot be shut.It is not clear that there is only one toilet and no sink in that, so causes a problem if the bathroom is in use as well The other facilities were fine and the bungalow was clean. The welcome pack and information file etc were good.

“This property is in a lovely setting with super views.”

It is very well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen. Lovely walks to Lyme Regis. Great not to have to use the car. There are a couple of points to consider with this property though. The property suited us as 2 adults, a teenager and a dog. However I can’t really see it working with 6 people as it’s advertised for due to the size of the kitchen/dinning room and seating in the lounge. The garden is secure which is great if you have a dog, However, it should be noted the gates on the driveway need to be shut to achieve this. We don’t have a large car so we were able to manoeuvre our car to be able to shut them. Not sure how easy this would be with a large car and certainly not with 2 cars. Unfortunately we didn’t find the sofas or mattresses particularly comfortable which meant no great night sleep for anyone. Overall the great weather and setting of the property meant we enjoyed our week away but I would be unlikely to return to this property.

“Had a lovely stay with super weather.”

Really enjoyed the river walk down to Lyme. Can be joined in Church Street. Grogg Lane- turn left at the bottom of the road or behind the black dog- stick to the left hand side of the field and follow the signs. So lovely not to have to use the car whilst here!

“Everything you could possibly need is in this house.”

Bright, clean and comfortable. Almost next to a bus stop. A grab bar for the shower would be a useful addition for us oldies….just an observation not a complaint.

“A very comfortable stay, wonderful views across the valley.”

“Beautiful setting, but the bungalow was tired and dated.”

Considering it can accommodate six adults the kitchen would be unworkable. One ofThe two sofas in the lounge had lost its firmness so much that my husband had great difficulty in getting himself out of its grip. Saying that we had a lovely stay ,my husband myself and our Cockerpoo.

“Comfortable bungalow.”

Thank you for welcome pack,. Mostly good weather. we enjoyed visiting Donkey Sanctuary, Bicton Botanical Gardens, Seaton Teams, A La Ronde, Forde Abbey. Also enjoyed walks at Golden Cap, Lambert's Castle and Rive Lym to Lyme Regis- crab sandwiches on sea front. Loved Black Dog Tea Rooms, only a short walk away.

“We have enjoyed our stay at Mount View with the beautiful scenery from the living room window and the short walk down to the sea front with our dog.”

It was our puppy's first time at the beach and we think he thoroughly enjoyed it thanks to Mount View. The weather could have been better some days but oh well. We will be back! P.s this is out third time here!

“We have stayed in a few of Sykes lets and while we have never had a poorly prepared property, this one is rated as the best overall for cleanliness and facilities provided.”

Well done. We would definitely recommend it and hope to book it again. Ian&Carol.

“A comfortable and very clean holiday property with panoramic views over fields from the lounge window.”

Ideally situated for Lyme Regis as it is only 1.5 miles via the river path or by road. Excellent service from Lyme Bay Holidays - we had to contact them when we had no hot water and when the outside clothes airer broke - both problems were rectified within 24 hours.

“We loved this simple cottage, with its homely feel and beautiful views.”

The garden was a real bonus and our dog loved roaming around it. It is well-equipped and has a lot of nice touchs that made us feel welcome. We definitely look forward to returning to Mount View. The only feedback I can give is that we found the recycling system a bit perplexing. There's a notice to put recyclables in with the rest of the rubbish but it isn't clear if this gets sorted and recycled. We tried to find local recycling facilities with limited success.

- Sonja, August 2022

Thank you for your feedback, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We use a company for refuse collections that sorts all waste at the facility. Apologies this was not clear to you but please rest assured that this is the system that we have in place. Property Owner

“The location of the accommodation is fantastic, near a bus stop that regularly runs serving all the Jurassic coast.”

The accommodation in itself is comfortable although it could do with upgrading the kitchen, bathrooms and living room but this is compensated by a pleasant view of the valley from the living room and the fantastic walks by the river Lim and the surrounding areas. The staff at LBH are very helpful. I will definitely use them again next year if Sykes don’t put the prices up.

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: While the property can be booked for 5 people, we do not suggest that the single beds are used for adults, please bare this in mind when booking.
