• "Another five star stay!"

  Our second visit to Barn Cottage and as expected, meet our expectations. On arrival greeted with a “welcome box” which was very thoughtful, together with the fresh flowers, this starts the holiday on a very positive and thoughtful note. Also, as a bonus, plentiful supply of nespresso pods. Minor issue with the internet, which was quickly and efficiently dealt with by Ian. As before the Barn was very clean, with the bedding, always important when away, top class. Modern appliances, in the kitchen easy to use when required. Utilised the EV charger, always a bonus. Ian & Sue always make you feel welcome, without being intrusive. Thanks for a really great stay.

  Thanks for your kind review Ken. We’re glad you enjoyed your second stay with us as much as the first and look forward to seeing you both again soon. Best regards, Ian & Sue Property Owner

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would like to thank our hosts for their friendly welcome.

• "Ware Barn Cottage is exactly as described , and in a very secluded location, so there is little in the way of noise around the area."

  Lyme Regis is a short walk of about 20-30 mins duration and the coastal views are tremendous. Ian and Sue the Owners live across the lawn from you and are are both very friendly. We were shown the Alpacas and had some fun feeding them. The place is very well equipped and the beds are good quality. Broadband was pretty good with 20Mbs download speeds , so streaming was possible and we had no issues with Netflix or anything. The wall mounted TV and speaker system were well done. The tumble drier was useful to have as well. We got there late due to a breakdown , but Ian came out to show us around in the dark. Thank you Ian.

  Thanks for your comprehensive review Scott. Sue and I are pleased you both enjoyed your holiday with us at Ware Barn Cottage. Glad this was not spoiled by your breakdown and delay on the way down! Property Owner

• "We ca’t recommend Ware Barn Cottage enough."

  It was fantastic and exactly as described. Ian and Sue were wonderful hosts. Our kids loved the opportunity to meet the Alpacas and feed them. Ware Barn is a great location for a relaxing break. It is outside of Lyme Regis. But there is a great off road walk in to Lyme Regis. Although its all up hill on the way back.

• "A little piece of heaven on a hilltop by the coast!"

  A really lovely cottage in a brilliant location close to the coastal path and a short but steep walk from the town of Lyme Regis. The cottage is clean and has modern kitchen and TV/entertainment. The bedrooms are large and comfortable. Very friendly and knowledgable owners helped us figure out the area and get settled, and we were able to see the alpacas getting their breakfast the next morning. If you want to visit the Lyme Regis area, this is the way to do it.

  Thank you for your beautiful review of Ware Barn Cottage Julie, is most appreciated. Sue and I are so pleased that you and your family enjoyed your stay on our cliff top, alpaca farm and that you feel able to recommend our cottage as ‘the way to visit Lyme Regis’!

• "This property exceeded our expectations with the amount of space it offers."

  All 3 bedrooms are a great size and there is a spacious and comfortable living area. The media unit and surround sound speakers were a great addition. When we arrived there were fresh flowers on the table and music playing which was lovely, as well as a welcome pack of local treats. All spotlessly clean and everything you need. Ian and Sue were very welcoming, a particular highlight for my sons was seeing the 3 dogs and the alpacas. Also, the children’s books were a lovely gift (my 7 year old has been reading it everyday since we got home!) thank you again. Would recommend.

• "Wow what a property,exceeded our expectations throughout our stay."

  On arrival we had a welcome pack and fresh flowers to greet us. When do you get fresh flowers with a rental? Very spacious and modern barn, with top of the range appliances fitted throughout. The Barn feels and radiates top class accommodation.Cleanliness of the property was exceptional, together with the excellent standard of the bedding was noteworthy. Special feature, being the surround sound system, especially when partnered with Spotify. EV charging on site was another benefit. Also enjoyed the Alpacas and the three very well behaved pointer dogs. Sue and Ian are a special couple who made us so welcome throughout our stay, you should be so proud of your property. Would definitely recommend and return.

• "We had an amazing, fantastic break in Lyme Regis."

  A lovely, spacious converted barn in a beautiful setting. It is modern, clean, and fully equipped with the latest eco friendly gadgets. We pack like we are moving house, as you never know what self-catering accommodation may or may not have. There was absolutely nothing missing from our tick list. In fact, it surpassed our expectations. Our hosts Ian and Sue were most welcoming, from when we arrived and throughout our stay. There was a lovely welcoming pack with some local goodies and treats. We had the opportunity to feed the Alpacas on site, the children in particular were most excited! Sue is like a walking Alpaca encyclopaedia! Sue generously gave a story book each to the children called ‘Alpaca Chatter’ which she authored! We also met their 3 lovely dogs. Our son is into dinosaurs and fossils. Ian kindly showed some of the fossils that he had, which our son was in complete awe. Sue also showed our daughter some of her crafting work, which our daughter loves. My husband was most interested (and amazed) by the solar power set up, it had some thing for everyone! There are a few paths linked to the main coastal path directly from the barn, which we used to walk into Lyme Regis. It’s about a 15/20 min walk, for most of our break we didn’t use the car much. The local attractions were close by, so not far in the car depending on what you want to do. We thoroughly had an excellent break and ‘the cherry on top’ was to return to such a wonderful base after a full day of various activities. Both our children did not want to leave, it was a very dramatic.. ‘why can’t we stay … pleaseeeeee!’ (but neither did the grown ups want to leave!). Thank you Sue and Ian for your hospitality, we most certainly will be coming back when we return to Lyme Regis.

  Thank you Julie for your kind and considered feedback on your recent stay with us. We are so pleased you enjoyed such a great stay with us, particularly as the unseasonal weather was perhaps not at its kindest. It was a great pleasure to have you with us at Ware Barn Cottage. We hope to see you and your family again soon! Ian & Sue Property Owner
