    “Although Hillary provided excellent hospitality, there were some concerns regarding the overall cleanliness of the property.”

    We noticed cobwebs, dust accumulation behind several doors, and felt that the downstairs bathroom would benefit from a fresh coat of paint. Additionally, the shower lacked adequate support, with only a heated towel rail for stability, and the provided towels were too small. Regarding the kitchen, the drawers and tiles could have been cleaned more thoroughly. We generally find that housekeeping standards in self-catering accommodation could be improved, I would make sure things were spotless ...

    We are so sorry that you had to leave so soon after a couple of nights as your husband was ill. I’m sure this was not the break you were expecting As you can see we have a 97% satisfaction rating for cleanliness based on 74 reviews and are pleased with that figure. Property Owner

About the location

MORCOMBELAKE

Bridport 2 miles. Lyme Regis 7 miles. West Bay 4 miles.

Morcombelake is a small village located on the A35 between Lyme Regis and Bridport, in touching distance of Golden Cap - the highest point on the south coast of England - and the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. Home to the famous 'Dorset Knob' biscuit, the village has a small store with post office and an excellent farm shop, Felicity's.

Nearby you will find the pretty seaside village of Seatown, with its excellent pub and great fossiling beach, which allows access to the walk along the coastal path, which affords spectacular views across the sparkling waters of Lyme Bay towards Portland, Chesil beach and the Dorset coast. A short drive east takes you to the ancient rope-making town of Bridport, and the harbour at West Bay, or venture west to visit the picturesque seaside resorts of Charmoith & Lyme Regis. An excellent holiday base from which to explore this scenic area.

Note: Infants under 1 welcome but sorry no children. This property only allows arrivals and departures on Friday's and Monday's, for any bookings outside of this pattern please enquire and we will check with the owners. Please note this property adjoins the owners property and their private gardens, please be aware that the gardens are regrettably not for guest use but guests are welcome to use the patio area.
