  • "Our main issues with the property were that the beds and furniture were extremely uncomfortable and the property (in particular the floors and rugs) was not particularly clean on arrival."

  • "Finding actual property on site very tricky better signage needed."

    . fortunately the cleaners were still at another property there in the afternoon to ask.  The guest information book is well out of date claiming that things are in the back of a folder that are actually in a draw underneath a gas boiler did not help when trying to work out how to use the hob etc., and the actual switch for hob hidden behind microwave! your description overall telling me that it was a gas cooker was entirely false as it was all electric therefore money wasted on buying unnecessary matches as I only have electric at home. Claiming it's dog friendly when there are no fences to contain your animals there is also wrong.

  • "Amazing little cottage with all you need for your stay."

    A lovely base very close to Axminster, Lyme Regis and Seaton. The owners left a welcome package which was much appreciated with milk in the fridge, tea bags and coffee. The dog loved the space and freedom. The cottage is not enclosed so bare in mind that if your dog is not trained as there are a couple of cottages in the row with access to all of them. Also there is WiFi however, I would not rely on it as it was very slow and would disconnect. Also due to the location mobile data is pretty poor. Just a thought if someone needed to work remote from the cottage. But this did not spoil the holiday it was lovely and tranquil listening to the birds and animals in the evenings on the farm next door. Thank you for a lovely stay Honeysuckle cottage, we will be returning.

    Thank you for your comments, and we're pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. The cottage is within the grounds of the main house, and outside space is open to the front of the cottage. Being in a rural location the WIFI can be intermittent and the owner has set-up a satellite internet service to try to provide a better coverage. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

  • "Location. Not as expected."

    More isolated than expected. Shower was inadequate and shower curtain not fit for purpose. Bedroom double bed need’s quality mattress. Curtains over front door tatty. Overall property lived up to expectations but details needaddressing

  • "This property is ideally situated for exploring the western part of the Jurassic Coast and is spacious with good parking."

    The property was clean and well-equipped. The local garage and shop are convenient and well-stocked for a convenience store. The garden area is delightful as a space for relaxation and recreation. The only issues were that the Wi-Fi is weak and slow so it cannot be relied on, and the heating struggled with the cold spell that hit the area whilst we were there.
