Thushara
July 2026

“The property is an amazing old building right in the centre of town, opposite the fossil museum and a very short walk to the beach As others have mentioned it is directly above a burger restaurant, which didn’t pose an issue other than an overwhelming smell of old cooking fat in the communal entrance although isnt noticeable upstairs in the apartment The place was perfectly clean but the sofa has seen better days and the main bed was very uncomfortable.”

The biggest issue we had was the noise from the road which the bedrooms overlook and found were getting woken up from around 4am each morning and the lack of curtains in the bedrooms, they have blinds but they do next to nothing to keep the light out in the early hours of the morning. Some easy fixes would have made the stay a lot more enjoyable

We are pleased you enjoyed your stay in Lyme, and our property dates back to the Tudor time so is very historic and pleased that you liked it. We note all of your comments, and whilst we haven't had guests mention road noise at that time before we will think about the blinds etc. So thank you for all your feedback. The owner Property Owner

“The description of the place was accurate, cleaning was okay, there were lots of cob webs and dust.”

It wasn't too noisy; the most inconvenient thing was the smell from the restaurant downstairs. We did really enjoy our stay, we did find that we were low on salt and no oil was provided.

- Mariam, May 2026

Thank you for you feedback and we immediately informed our cleaner. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and note your comment about oil. Kind regards The owner Property Owner
Terence September 2025

“This is a lovely apartment – clean, well equipped and spacious – with loads of quirky character.”

It has been decorated very thoughtfully. It is well situated for the town and beach and pretty quiet considering its position. Car access for unloading/loading is a little tricky but to be expected given the nature of the town. One small gripe: we were unable to close the bedroom window which would not have been such a problem had the water company not been digging up a nearby road overnight! I would definitely return.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Coombe Street despite having only decided to do so only 48 hours before arriving.”

Although we didn't know Lyme especially well the straightforward directions guided us to the key collection point, property and parking without any difficulties. The very generous welcome pack was much appreciated especially as we arrived quite late. The location is great and was ideal for us given that we were attending a Folk Festival event at the Marine Theatre. Although the property has a great deal of character given its obvious long history it was is beautifully presented and furnished. Just a few points to note: 1. Some of the mugs could do with replacing due to chips on their rims. 2. The manual was missing instructions as to how to turn the boiler on for hot water. 3. The router needed re-booting on a regular basis for the network to appear on the wi-fi menu. But, all in all, a lovely and memorable visit. Thank you.

“Lovely apartment.”

Nice to have a welcome pack and a cleaning pack even though we were only there one night. Brilliant location right in the centre of Lyme.

- Glenn, August 2025
Maddy August 2025

“A charming apartment with tasteful furnishings and some lovely artwork on the walls.”

You are right in the heart of Lyme here and it’s a great base to explore. The welcome pack was really appreciated too.

- Maddy, August 2025

So glad you enjoyed the apartment and Lyme Regis! Property Owner
Julian July 2025

“Lots of positive: location, welcome pack etc but the wifi was extremely unreliable to the point of useless so had to increase data allowance on our phones!”

The 2 single beds were uncomfortable with noisy frames if you moved in the night and mattresses not sufficient so back ache in the morning. Extractor fan in the bathroom does not work and the window does not open.

- Julian, July 2025
Heather June 2025

“Great place to stay, don’t be put off by the fact it’s above a burger place it was quiet and the restaurant closed at 8pm despite saying it was open until 10pm.”

A great central place to stay we would definitely book again.

- Heather, June 2025

So glad you had a nice stay in our home and hopefully explored Lyme- the people in the restaurant are great and it is quiet. Property Owner
Amanda September 2024

“Lovely Apartment, no issues.”

Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Very close to town. Wonderful welcome pack !!

Glad you enjoyed the apartment and hope you had a great time in Lyme. Property Owner
Teresa June 2024

“We loved the apartment with its quirkiness and location.”

The beds were comfortable and there was an amazing welcome pack when we arrived. We knew about the steep steps at the entrance and they were steep but we’d been informed so that was fine but the only thing we’d change were the sofas, I’m afraid between the three of them not one was comfortable at all so much so we used our beach chairs to sit on instead!!. I’d recommend the apartment to my friends as the sofas didn’t spoil our time spend In beautiful Lyme Regis.

- Teresa, June 2024

Hi Teresa, thank you so much for the feedback. We have a difficulty with the sofas due to the narrow stairs but we are looking at other alternatives! We are very glad that you had a lovely time in Lyme. Property Owner Property Owner
Steve October 2023

“Absolutely beautiful apartment, ideal location and fully equipped with everything you need.”

As previous comments, shower does leak a little. Not an actual leak but water runs off from around top of the bath, easily stopped with flannel or a cloth. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, even with the wet and windy weather Welcome pack was amazing, thank you so much Steve, Lara, Evangeline and Bob the well behaved Cavapoo!

- Steve, October 2023
Paul June 2023

“On the whole we Loved the apartment, very quirky, great facilities, lovely welcome pack, great location, we would definitely stay again.”

A couple of points worth addressing are: Bit of a musty smell, but u get used to it. Sofas are quite uncomfortable/small, again u get used to it. Problem with shower leaking to shop below (think it's the shower screen).

- Paul, June 2023

Thank you for your feedback and sorry to hear that you experienced a few issues during your stay. We have already investigated the leak from the shower and have some parts on order to rectify the problem. We will ask our housekeeping team to check out the musty smell. The musty smell is the floor varnish. The Lyme Bay Team and Owner Property Owner
Julia April 2023

“Couldn’t have booked a more central spot excellent for that.”

We enjoyed our stay we just struggled with the stairs into the property no good for elderly people we struggled with it ourselves. Also the people living upstairs were very noisy 6 am wake up call every morning & evening they weren’t much better like a Hurd of elephants !! Exhausted from the lack of sleep & sea air

- Julia, April 2023

Sorry to hear that you experienced some noise from the flat above. Unfortunately this can be the case with flats, especially when it is a character property and there is a mixture of residential and holiday lets. The Lyme Bay Team. Property Owner
Maggie April 2023

“We had an amazing time in Lyme Regis, the weather wasnt great but the accommodation made up for that and there was still plenty to do in the area.”

Great facilities, lovely welcome pack full of local treats, overall very comfortable and quirky and relaxing. Thank you for a fantastic holiday!

- Maggie, April 2023

So glad you had a fantastic holiday! Property Owner
Gary February 2023

“Great holiday apartment, close to everything.”

As mentioned in other posts the welcome pack was fantastic and well thought out. Beds were comfy and we all slept well. Kitchen was very well stocked for home cooking, plenty of space for a family of four. The apartment itself was old and quirky with plenty of pictures and ornaments that made it nice and homely. Would book this holiday home again next time we are down. Not a complaint but just a note for other family's with young children..Stairs are steep so had to make sure hands were held and where the front door is situated, unloading/loading could be tricky during busy holiday periods. Great place Great holiday

- Gary, February 2023

Thank you for the feedback and so glad you had a great holiday! Property Owner
Paula October 2022

“A lovely, very comfortable, clean, warm holiday let.”

The hamper with the bottle of milk was an added bonus. Maybe an electric kettle instead of an ice cube maker, due to gas hob taking ages to boil kettle. Could not find washer/dryer, only washing machine. The 2 bins were full of rubbish plus bags of rubbish on top. These obviously hadn't been emptied for weeks which we put out for the bin men. Lastly, my daughter was unable to get out of main door onto the street one day. As upstairs residents had double locked the door. Luckily she found the funny side and had to ring us to rescue her. We would definitely return. Ideal location for the beach, shops and plenty of cafes/restaurants to eat.

- Paula, October 2022

Thank you for the feedback and we have an electric kettle there but it only does one cup at a time so will replace that! So glad you had a nice time and hope you will visit us in Lyme again. Property Owner
Phil October 2022

“We had a lovely stay at the apartment it was cosy and very clean, it had everything we needed and a lovely welcome pack that was much appreciated.”

We would definitely stay there again.

Linda September 2022

“Lovely quaint apartment (except for looking out onto a wall from main window) but the two little 2 seater sofas were not very comfortable - very firm and not great to come back to for an evening in if it was raining!”

The chaise longue was unusable as very old, lumpy and impossible to sit on! The main nuisance was people in the flat above getting up at 6am and thumping around for about an hour!

- Linda, September 2022

So glad you liked the flat and hope the rain didn't spoil your visit to Lyme. The chaise longue is great for lying on and watching TV! I am sorry about the noise from upstairs but it is a Tudor building so there isn't much we can do about that but they are lovely people upstairs. Property Owner
Elaine September 2022

“We enjoyed our stay but the furniture was so uncomfortable what was that chaise in the corner ?”

But when we arrived the smell of dog was overpowering the mat we rolled up as dogs had urinated on it as you can see from the back of it . The shower leaked through the screen soaking the floor . And the back yard was full off boxes and rubbish not the best . We love Lyme Regis but couldn’t stay in that accommodation.

- Elaine, September 2022

Helen August 2022

“Lovely apartment, very clean comfortable and close to town.”

The beds were very comfortable, which is very important to me. A lovely hamper was provided which was a very nice touch and much appreciated. Would recommend the apartment and if we return to Lyme Regis would stay there again. The only thing I would say that the shower leaked onto the floor, the owner may not be aware of this, but I think it’s worth mentioning as it could damage the wooden floor in time if left.

- Helen, August 2022

Hi Helen, so glad you enjoyed the apartment and thank you for bringing the floor to our attention and we will be fixing that as soon as possible. Thanks, Lisa Property Owner
Richard August 2022

“Fabulous location, very central for pubs, beach,shops,etc.”

Lovely clean property ,the welcome pack was a nice addition and fully appreciated! Lack of parking outside the property was understandable being as where the property was situated,but the parking permit for the car park was great ,as once we were parked we didn't need to move the car anyway.We had a fantastic stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

- Richard, August 2022

Thanks Richard and really glad you had a great stay. Lisa Property Owner
