  • "Really great location and lovely property."

    Highly recommend

  • "The cottage is in a lovely location on a private estate."

    We liked the ability to open the windows to allow air into the property, plus the blinds to cover the windows helped to reduce light during the early hours of the morning. The binder with instructions on the various devices was very useful. Kitchen worked as it should but it could do with a large frying pan. The shower was overall good but we found that the boiler would lose pressure every few days so we just increased the pressure for a couple of seconds until the needle got to the recommended mark and the shower would then contintue to run warm/hot. The shower head is a little stiff but that's more down to the hard water so if someone has tried to adjust the jet then it might not lock in place and hence water shoots through the top and wets the bathroom, fan in bathroom wasn't working but not an issue. Main double bed is on the firm side which initially isn't ab issue but on the last two nights we started to feel it so might be an issue for some. The bunk room is only suitable for primary aged children which wasn't an issue for us though. The chill out room is great for kids to play, stairs are a little steep and exposed at the top but a toy box covered that part and wasnt an issue but others would need to be aware if they have smaller children. Cottage generally clean, just a few cob webs in bathroom corners but otherwise clean duvets are showing their age and could do with replacing. The small front garden isn't enclosed but that's stated on the site but gets the sun during the day which is good. Overall good and we enjoyed our stay.

  • "The property is in a lovely setting and it was nice exploring around the area."

    It is a really nice layout and the kids enjoyed the play room upstairs. It was dog friendly with lots of walks on the doorstep. Close to Lyme Regis for the beach and further exploring. We had a couple of problems during our stay - the shower head needs replacing as it is broken, water was pouring out in all directions. The boiler kept loosing pressure which left us with no hot water a few times, that's quite tricky when the kids have been down to the beach and need to get clean. We also couldn't find the blue bin for recycling, all the neighbours appear to have them but we could only find a red topped bin for general waste.

    We love the estate and the house is perfect for our needs. It is comfortable, clean and we were so lucky with the weather, we enjoyed having the back door open and our dog loved to sit there watching the world go by. We will definitely be back again Diana & Rob

  • "Lovely location and very nice cottage."

    We enjoyed the walks around the estate and the welcome pack was a nice touch. Excellent shower and playroom area for children plus lots of games which was a very thoughtful touch and much appreciated by our 7 year old! The only issue we had was heat - it was a chilly February weekend and despite extra fan heaters, it was really cold at night. No extra blankets provided and an extremely thin duvet for a winters holiday. The bed was very uncomfortable and we woke rather exhausted instead of rested. As we don’t get much chance to get away, it was a bit of a disappointment. Am sure the cottage is stunning in the summer months and a real treasure.

    New sofas since the last visit much appreciated! Good location, love having the walks round the estate to do. So peaceful. We'll be back!

  • "Lovely property with excellent shower!"

    !! Comfy bed and spacious living area. Cleanliness could be improved but reasonable considering it's a dog friendly place

  • "This was a beautiful little place that suited the four of us really well."

    It was very comfortable and cosy. It would have been nice to have a little more done with the patio in keeping with the standard of the interior so that it would have been more pleasant to sit outside. Aside from that we had a lovely stay on the beautiful estate with long rambling walks and amazing views of the sea in the distance.

  • "This was a really cozy place to stay, and my family enjoyed spending time here and walking the grounds."

    Cleanliness could be improved - There was mud on the carpet and many cobwebs throughout. Additionally, consider that guests may not be local, and bringing extras such as paper towels (or cleaning cloths), toilet paper, laundry detergent, trash bags, napkins is not always feasible. Even if these extras are provided in limited quantities, it would significantly improve ones stay and guests can better clean up after themselves.

  • "We stayed at 3 Home Farm South recently."

    What a lovely peaceful ambiance the country estate and the house itself has! The accommodation is lovely and homely and has a warm and cosy feel to it. All the modern amenities are available (handy with a teenager in tow!) including a smart TV and fast Wi-Fi. It was such a great location for exploring Lyme and the Jurassic coast. We really enjoyed our time at this holiday property.

  • "The estate was a great unique location."

    Cleaning standards was very low. Recommend all cleaning equipment is stored out of sight not in the main room. Dishwasher was broken on arrival but repaired after 2 days for a 3 day stay. Too much utensils and crockery mix and match recommend replace with a smaller set to maintain cleanliness. Sofa needs replacing (sofa bed). Fruit Shoot pot found behind cushions and dirt behind furniture when moved. Bathroom radiator dirty/rusty. Found this all disappointing considering extra the time needed by the holiday provider to clean a cottage post COVID.

    Thank you for your comments, we are so glad you enjoyed the property’s location. After reviewing the cleaning at the property, all issues have been resolved by the team. Our apologies for the dishwasher not working, but as you mentioned, it has been fixed now. The sofa is being investigated. We appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback and hope you will return to Lyme soon. Property Owner

  • "The estate was beautiful, grounds maintained well and kept clean."

    Lots of lovely walks. Great location to visit places such as Lyme Regis, Beer, Seaton and Charmouth. Accommodation was a lovely cosy converted building. The welcome gift bag on arrival was a nice touch. However it does need a new sofa as the current one is very squashed. It was relatively clean, except under furniture. Nice hot powerful shower and Comfortable bed. The stairs are very steep and dangerous for children and pets, does need a baby gate for safety reasons. Overall we had a great holiday.

  • "We loved the property and the Rousdon Estate which was so pretty and peaceful."

    Just little things like a full sized ironing board, hooks on the French doors to prevent slamming and better Internet which I know was due to be done the week we were there. We had such a fabulous week and hope to come back soon. Thank you.
