    The property was extremely clean and well equipped. Justin the owner was friendly and welcoming and had already answered a question we had prior to arrival, promptly. We were seeking a bit of quiet relaxation and could not have chosen better holiday accommodation. The hot tub was fantastic and provided great views while soaking. The decor was beautiful and added to the air of calm. A long private driveway set us back on a private estate but we were still close enough for a good walk following ...

    The property was extremely clean and well equipped. Justin the owner was friendly and welcoming and had already answered a question we had prior to arrival, promptly. We were seeking a bit of quiet relaxation and could not have chosen better holiday accommodation. The hot tub was fantastic and provided great views while soaking. The decor was beautiful and added to the air of calm. A long private driveway set us back on a private estate but we were still close enough for a good walk following the stream into Lyme Regis and all it has to offer. We have over 30 years self catering experience and have never stayed in better and will definitely return. Thank you Justin
