The property
A thoughtfully presented three-bedroom holiday home, L’Ancresse Cottage is well suited to families or groups of friends looking to enjoy a coastal escape in Lyme Regis, with the Jurassic Coast within easy reach. Tucked away in a popular cul-de-sac on the desirable Monmouth Park development on the edge of town, the property benefits from a sunny southerly orientation, creating bright, welcoming interiors throughout. Features such as underfloor heating and oak flooring across much of the ground floor enhance the sense of quality and ease.
The kitchen forms the heart of the home, styled with soft grey units and integrated appliances to create a practical yet sociable space, ideal for leisurely breakfasts or preparing meals after a day out. From the sitting room, doors open onto a raised, paved terrace — a natural spot for outdoor dining or simply unwinding while overlooking the garden. Beyond, the rear garden enjoys a particularly pleasant setting, backing onto Colway Lane with a leafy backdrop of mature trees. Steps lead down to a lawned area, complemented by a colourful, well-stocked bank of shrubs and flowers, while a pedestrian gate provides access to the parking area, there is parking available for one car.
Upstairs, three well-sized bedrooms are arranged off a central landing. Two are doubles, while the third provides flexibility with a single bed and an optional pull-out trundle, and benefits from its own en-suite shower room. From the upper floor, there are attractive views across the development towards the town, surrounding hills and glimpses of the sea. A family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, complete with a bath and shower over, basin, WC and heated towel rail.
Situated on the edge of Lyme Regis, the property is approximately three quarters of a mile from the beach and the South West Coast Path, reached via a downhill walk. The sandy beach is popular with beachgoers and water enthusiasts alike. The town offers a lively mix of independent shops, cafés and places to eat, while the historic Cobb harbour is the perfect place to enjoy boat trips or try your hand at a fishing excursion.
For days out, Langmoor Gardens provides a scenic setting for a game of mini golf, and the nearby golf course offers further appeal. A visit to Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre is well worthwhile, or you might spend time fossil hunting along the shoreline — a much-loved activity along this stretch of the Jurassic Coast.
Well located for exploring both the town and coastline, L’Ancresse Cottage provides a relaxed and adaptable base for making the most of your time in Lyme Regis.
