“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay thank you.”

The cottage is lovely and the Rousdon estate grounds stunning in a great location close to beautiful Lyme Regis. Access to the private, usually deserted beach along a wonderful forest track was a real highlight. We appreciated the welcome pack and tried to return the favour by buying a new corkscrew which was missing on our arrival but we inadvertently took that one home with us (as a previous occupant must have done) sorry! We really hope to be back, thanks again.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Yard Cottage.”

Wonderful location, quiet and scenic. Good for countryside walks. Accommodation comfortable with good facilities. The only minor criticism is the lack of a stand up full shower in the downstairs en-suite.

“We had a great time.”

Cottage is cozy and estate is really lovely. Easy access to all of the main attractions and you can access the south coast path from the estate which was really convenient. Some minor negative points: Mattresses were really uncomfortable, smoke detector is too close to shower room so sets off with the steam and bathroom extractor in the kitchen is not fit for purpose to extract smoke/smells. Kitchen extractor with variable setting should be fitted instead. Apart from this we had a fab time :)
