The estate is very picturesque and peaceful, with some lovely walks. The house is in the old stable courtyard, and had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We found it very conveniently located for Lyme Regis, and the wider Jurassic coast. We would very much recommend it!Note: as of April 2025 the private beach is inaccessible, but you can still walk down to join the coastal path, ##### Luke C.

The hosts are accommodating and check in with you a day into the stay to make sure that you have what you need and are willing to assist in anyway they can. The property is stunning and Lyme Regis is only a 5 minute drive away for a beach day. We will definitely be staying again when we are back in the area. ##### Mark H.
