The property
Half Moon Cottage is a charming period retreat perfectly positioned just five minutes from the picturesque seafront of Lyme Regis. Blending traditional character with stylish modern comforts, this beautifully renovated and pet‑friendly cottage offers an ideal coastal escape for families or groups looking to relax, explore, and enjoy everything this historic seaside town has to offer.
Inside, a welcoming open‑plan living area creates a warm and inviting space to spend time together. Sink into the cosy sofas beside the woodburning stove after a day by the sea, enjoy meals around the elegant dining table, and take advantage of the well‑equipped kitchen that makes holiday cooking effortless. Ceiling beams and characterful features run throughout the cottage, adding charm at every turn, while thoughtful personal touches help make your stay feel truly special. A handy utility room keeps beachwear and laundry neatly out of sight.
With three thoughtfully arranged bedrooms, everyone has a comfortable place to rest. The master double includes its own en suite shower room, while the additional bedrooms offer flexible sleeping options—one with a single bed and the other with a single plus a pull‑out truckle, ideal for an extra guest. After a day of coastal adventures, treat yourself to a relaxing soak before settling in for a peaceful night’s rest.
To the front of the cottage, a pretty courtyard garden with table and chairs provides the perfect spot for morning coffee, lingering lunches, or evening drinks in the fresh sea air. Off‑road parking allows for a carefree, “throw the car keys away” stay, letting you explore Lyme Regis entirely on foot.
Your holiday begins the moment you arrive, welcomed by a thoughtful hamper featuring milk, tea, and delicious locally sourced Dorset treats.
From its slightly elevated position above the town centre, Half Moon Cottage places you within a short stroll of Lyme Regis’ charming craft shops, cafés, restaurants, and historic attractions. Visit the iconic Cobb harbour, take in the views across the bay, and spend time on the town’s family‑friendly sandy beach, perfect for paddling, sandcastle building, and relaxed days by the water. Explore the Lyme Regis Museum or Town Mill, discover prehistoric wonders at Dinosaurland Fossil Museum, or enjoy family favourites like the Marine Aquarium and the beautiful Langmoor and Lister Gardens. And of course—don’t miss the chance to search for ancient treasures while fossil hunting along the world‑famous Monmouth Beach.
Offering charm, comfort, and unbeatable convenience, Half Moon Cottage promises a memorable coastal holiday from the moment you step through the door.
