  • "Before booking we wanted walking distance of Lyme Regis seafront, off street parking and comfortable, well equipped accommodation - this property ticked all the boxes."

    It took us less than 10 minutes on foot to reach the top of the high street and no more than 15 minutes to reach the harbour (down hill). Easy to access, secure parking and entry to the apartment is on the same level as the carpark, so unloading was easy. Modern, comfortable and thoughtfully furnished/equipped. You get sea views, Golden Cap and coastline, as well as the sunrise as the flat faces roughly east. The block itself appears well maintained and during our stay we saw both the gardener and cleaner. Secure gated pedestrian access from the garden is a bonus and we noticed bus stops close by. We would definitely stay here again, it has everything you need for a holiday.

  • "Lovely flat with lovely views to the sea and Golden Cap in the distance."

    Still think the tiny shower is an issue which could be relatively easily resolved but this was our second visit this year so that must tell you something!

  • "Apologies for not putting an entry in the Visitors Book."

    Our stay was very enjoyable every thing was as discribed. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Would consider a stay at a later date to tour the surrounding area in Autumn. Many thanks

  • "Very well located apartment and clean, apart from the hand print on the french door."

    Very quiet apartment block. Plenty of hanging and storage in both bedrooms, as you can't see this from the photo's on the website. The shower is quite small as previous reviews have stated, if you are tall and large you may struggle and the water is on you all the time. The wash basin was higher than a normal pedestal height, so being short was a little bit awkward. Spacious bedrooms. Light in the apartment corridor could benefit from a sensor, as using the switch didn't always come on. Secure parking and own parking space, which was obviously no 5. Also there are visitor parking spaces so if you were a couple and had another car you could probably use this, but I would check with the agent first. Lovely views from the balcony and there are chairs and a table to sit on. Two garden seating areas, one higher which you get better views of the sea from. The walk up the hill is around 15 minutes and steep at times. Lots of pubs and places to eat, but have become a bit pricey. There is a takeaway close by, down the hill. Tesco and a co-op at the bottom of the hill beside each other. Larger Tesco in Axminster. There is parking near the local tesco down the hill for one hour, limited spaces. Great apartment, but could benefit from more than a packet of biscuits for the price you pay for the apartment, although they were lovely you can't eat them without a cup of tea, which you need milk for. Toaster is looking a little worn so this put me off using it. Door to the apartment, the lock is a bit dodgy at times. Couple of fans and top flat sheets for hot weather wouldn't go amiss. Never been to Lyme Regis before but it was a lovely base and nice that we didn't need to use the car all the time.

  • "We had a really lovely stay at 5 Buckfields."

    It is a lovely apartment perfect if you can cope with the hills! Secure car park which is hard to find in Lyme Regis. The only reason we haven't given it the highest smiley faces is that (as mentioned by another review) the shower cubicle is tiny which is such a shame because there is plenty of room for something a little bit bigger and just a small point is that the patio door was quite badly smeared with greasy marks and we think should have been cleaned prior to our arrival. This will not stop us staying again at Buckfields.

    Thank you for your comments. We do apologise if the property didn't meet our expected cleanliness standards. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

  • "The apartment was spacious with good quality and comfortable furniture and beds."

    The kitchen was excellent and had everything you would need. The garden was beautifully kept and lovely to look at from the balcony. The bathroom was clean and the shower worked perfectly. The apartment block was secure with electronic gates and felt very safe.

  • "The apartment was fantastic, and we really enjoyed our stay."

    There are a couple of improvements that could be made: the shower cubicle was very small making it really hard to properly wash yourself. The property is advertised with a gas hob, and this was induction (not a biggy), and the advert states a 'welcome hamper' and this was a packet of biscuits. They were very nice, but quite a disappointment from the expectation set in the advert. However, as this is the second time we've stayed, it was nice to see the high standards have been kept, and we would love to come back again.

Family-friendly and accessible via the ground-floor, this property is perfect for families.

Enter into a smart open-plan living area where three grey sofas and a large window with a view to the town welcomes you to recline and plan the day ahead of you.

Homely paintings and photographs hang on the fresh cream walls, and there is a fantastic kitchen space outfitted with wooden cupboards, a grey worksurface and quirky colourful tiles adding a splash of colour to the space, and it is here you will be able to enjoy family cooking, serving your meal at the dining table, and the set up of the living area makes it a great social space for the whole family to enjoy.

After spending the day at the beach, a contemporary shower-room will help soak the sand from your hair, before you snuggle down for the night in one of the two bedrooms available; a double with a seaside blue theme and a twin with storage.

The seaside town of Lyme Regis is a popular resort all year round, settled into the stunning area of Dorset, it offers coastal walks along the amazing Jurassic coast, where you can search for fossils amongst the rocks, most notably at the famous Lyme Bay Fossil Beach.

Only a short walk from the property you will find an abundance of shops selling local produce, craft and art, and plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants welcome you to enjoy a warm meal out and a hot chocolate.

If you wish to know more about the fascinating history of the region, visit the Lyme Regis Museum or the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum.

There is also the option of a family walk through Langmoor and Lister Gardens as well as a visit to the fantastic Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium, where you will be able to experience a wide variety of sea life living along the coast.
