  • "The rug in the living area had a tendency to crease up which could potentially be a trip hazard."

    We had to straighten it out several times. The toothbrush/shaver charge point in the en-suite didn’t work. The shelf in the bottom of the fridge door was broken at one end. A lot of the wardrobe space was taken up by storage bags which left no space for stowing suitcases. During our stay someone put up 3 notices reminding people to be quiet when using the common spaces and that children under 10 were not allowed. We weren’t aware of any excessive noise/ children during our stay and found the notes to be a little disconcerting.

    Having visited Lyme on many occasions but a first visit to Portland suite We found in general the facilities to be of a very good standard and well equipped One addition we would recommend would be a hard rail from the kitchen to the lounge area steps for the elderly who have walking for issues are a problem something to hold onto would be a help Tv and Wi-Fi access/sky don’t work needs addressing Would recommend and we would use again our selves

  • "Excellent property, spacious, comfortable, a short walk from the high street and with a view to die for, regardless of the weather!"

    The property had all the essentials needed. The parking space was snug for a big car, but workable. The only slight negative was the limited TV channels available as we stayed in every evening. A sky box is provided but it is not connected to broadband so you can only get certain channels (the guest information provides a password to access movies etc, but it doesn't work without a broadband connection), and you cant connect to your own accounts on other services such as prime/Netflix etc either. We ended up buying some DVDs in one of the charity shops as there was a DVD player. All in all, a lovely stay and we will definitely be back.

    It's great to hear that as a return guest you have enjoyed yet another stay. We are sorry to hear about the issue with the wifi and use of streaming tv channels. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

  • "What a beautiful place, the apartment was so comfortable, clean and airy."

    Loved that it was so close to the town and we could walk down whenever we wanted. Although the weather wasn’t great during our stay, the apartment was comfortable to stay in if we wanted to. There were games, puzzles and dvds. We loved sitting by the window and looking out at the ocean. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again. We also had an issue with the boiler, I phoned the number given and someone was there within an hour and fixed it straight away. Thank you for providing such a lovely place.

  • "Have lost count of how often we have stayed in Portland Suite but we do try to visit each year."

    We love the views from the apartment, and the easy access to the town and Cobb. Not to mention all the amazing eateries in Lyme Regis.

    The owners are always pleased to welcome back such regular guests, and it's great to hear that you continue to enjoy the apartment and views from it. We look forward to your next visit! The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

  • "The apartment was comfortable and spacious."

    And for once it was exactly like the photographs and the description of where it was situated was accurate A couple of very small niggles two strips of kitchen towel were left on the holder for us and maybe a little more toilet roll could have been provided

  • "Our only issue was that it was only possible to use the internet on our phones, not on our laptops."

    We solved this by going to see friends in Bridport and using their internet. You need to put details of the internet key in the info folder (your office did try to find this but sent the wrong ones - I suspect there are some old routers kicking about). The actual password is correct but this isn't what's required for laptop access.

  • "We have been visiting The Portland Suite for a number of years now and St Michaels house for 6 years I believe."

    The decoration is a really good standard with lovely local art on the walls and the new carpets throughout are a welcome new addition. Unfortunately despite the wardrobe space being good, there continues to be very limited hangers (you have to bring your own). Drawer space is also very limited in the bedrooms, nowhere for trousers / shorts / jumpers and we end up having piles on the floors. In my opinion 10.5 tog duvets in the summer should be swapped for 4.5 or 7.5 tog, we end up every year taking the duvets out and using only the covers with a blanket for colder mornings ( again that we bring from home). The seating furniture in the living room has seen better days now, particularly the cream sofa bed and is uncomfortable to sit on for a period of time, but it was nice to have all the extra decorations and cushions back and the lamps in the living areas. The best thing is the location and easy parking, we are really close to the main shopping and eateries and short walk to the beach as long as you are fit enough to deal with the steep hills and steps. Given the large price rise for 2023, unfortunately this will probably be our last year at St Michaels House. :(

This is a wonderful space for gathering and socialising with your holiday party and you can imagine many happy hours spent in this spot.

Step into the amply sized kitchen which is fully fitted with everything the designated chef could possibly need to rustle up some tasty cuisine.

Once prepared you can dine in the window of the light and airy kitchen or step into the more formal dining area which is all set up for long, enjoyable meals with your friends and loved ones and comes complete with a stunning Juliet balcony to maximise those mesmerising views.

It really is a beautifully sociable space which has been designed to ensure you make the most of spending quality time together.

When bedtime calls, take your pick from the elegant double bedroom or the family room which has a king-size and a day bed in it; both of which are stylishly presented and the perfect place to rest your weary head at the end of the day and to wake up to in the morning after a refreshing night’s sleep.
