"Just came back from a lovely week at 3 Dolphin Cottage."
The cottage was clean spacious and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable,shower amazing. Having a parking space a real bonus. What made it for us was the location,just a short walk into town. Although there is very little outdoor space we did manage to have a bbq outside of the sunroom,which we’d sit in at night. Opening the sash window in the front room in the morning watching the world go by was very pleasant. Will definitely be going back,highly recommend.

Thank you for your feedback and so glad you had a great stay in number 3. Hope to see you back very soon. Property Owner

"This was our second stay in number 3 and as before we really enjoyed it."
The cottage was was well presented and the car parking is a real bonus and the welcome pack was most welcome. We are both in our 70s but found the short walk into town easy and very pleasant beside the river. We hope to visit again in the near future, many thanks. Rob and Pam.
Welcome back. Its always lovely to hear from returning guests and I am so glad you enjoyed your stay in number 3. Karen Property Owner

"Nice, comfortable cottage."
Kitchen is well equipped though some non-stick frying pans would be better than the current ones. Handy to be able to dry clothes in the sun room. The location is great, on a quaint street only a few minutes walk to the town and beach. We enjoyed our stay here!
Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and found 3 Dolphin confortable and convenient. Property Owner

"All good except rubbish previous people’s rubbish was left in dustbin, waste collection could be improved"
Hope you enjoyed your stay in 3 Dolphin and sorry to hear the bins were not emptied before you arrived. Very occasionally the bins do get missed but, as per the guest info, LBH will do an immediate additional rubbish collection if needed. Property Owner

"We stayed at the end of July and had a fantastic time, having being to Lyme a few time intge past, it is such a lovely place to holiday."
The cottage was clean on arrival and the facilities were as described. We would definitely return, the cottage was close to shops and restaurants and the beach a great location and no hills to go up and down. I would recommend to friends.
Thank you for your feedback. Glad glad to hear you had a fantastic stay and look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

"Very disappointed that no welcome hamper was provided; simple things like tea, milk, biscuits really should have been there."
In over 40 years of hiring cottages, this is the first time this has happened! Also, no folder giving details of nearest shops, places to eat etc.
Thank you for your feedback. 3 Dolphin isn't advertised with a hamper but I will look in to including hampers for the next season as guest in other properties have provided possitive feedback about them. Property Owner

"My wife and I have just returned from a short break (4 nights) in 3 Dolphin cottages and I must say we thorouly enjoyed it."
We had everything we needed and the cottage was lovely and clean with a very comfy bed. The location is ideal for a short walk to the shops and beach and the parking is a real bonus. Hope to return in the near future for a longer stay. Rob, June 2024.
Thankj you for your feedback. So glad you enjoyed your stay and we'd love to see you back soon. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage."
Just what we needed. We would definitely stay again if looking for a property of this size. Great location and very well equipped. Parking space is small but we were able to use for offloading etc and find local car park for our car. Sun room at back was a highlight.
Thank you for your feedback and glad you enjoyed your stay in Dolphin Cottage. Property Owner

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 3 Dolphin Cottages."
The property was clean & comfortable with everything provided. Property is situated very conveniently to access both town & beach. Provides good base to explore further afield also. Would have been nice to have some outside space with table & chairs but there isn't really enough room for this. Would recommend & return again.
Thank you for your feedback. Lovely to hear that you were able to spend time exploring Lyme and the beautiful area. Property Owner

"Our second stay in this property."
Very close to town and local amenities, enjoyed our second stay as much as the first.
-
"We very much enjoyed our stay at 3 Dolphin Cottages, everywhere was beautifully clean."
The one thing that would have improved our stay though would have been a few basic groceries, such as tea and milk on arrival. We are not car owners and so shopping was quite a major event. Also, two sets of keys would have been a help. Apart from this, all good!
Thank you for your feedback and lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. I fully agree with your comment re a second set of keys and, although another set can always be picked up from Lyme Bay Holidays, I have asked them to leave a second guest set in the house. I have also asked Lyme Bay Holidays to look in to options regarding basic groceries as currently only an arrival hamper can be added. This provides a lovely treats but the feedback has been that guests actual requirements differ considerably ie decaf, gluten free, non dairy milk etc. Property Owner

"We enjoyed staying at 3 Dolphin Cottages, the cottage was comfortable and had all we needed."
It was almost a level walk to the town and beach which is a bonus in Lyme. I did'nt realise the cottage did not have any outside space, it was not a problem as the beach was close by. Parking was really handy as well.
Thank you for your feedback and I am glad you enjoyed your stay. Private parking and a relatively flat walk to the front are both definitely a bonus in Lyme! Property Owner

"Really lovely property that we have loved staying at for at least 6 years now."
Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback. Its always lovely to see returning customers enjoying Lyme and the cottage. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage tucked away in a quiet street."
My only complaint was that the bed was very uncomfortable.
I am sorry to hear you found the bed uncomfortable. It is a good quality sprung mattress so I would be interested to hear what you felt made it uncomforatable. Property Owner
