The Stable

Comfortable cottage well equipped in quiet location.

A lovely property in a wonderful setting.

We stayed 3 nights and had everything we needed for our stay (2 adults, one 7 yr old and a dog). The location is fantastic- close to Lyme but rural enough for wonderful views and the property is set in a beautiful garden with fabulous sculptures dotted around. Minor issue- the toaster tripped the fuse when on a low setting and the door mat needs replacing with something more sturdy. But other than those bits- a fabulous stay!

We had a lovely stay.

The owners of the property were friendly and helpful. The holiday company were also friendly and helpful. We would certainly come back again and recommend to others. We were a party of two with a small dog. The bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms were excellent and looked quite new. The kitchen was very functional. ( another tea towel and some bin liners would be useful

Great stay and surroundings Probably the settee requires replacement and shower in twin bedroom needs attention as it was intermittent with the water flow Will return in the future

The actual accommodation was bigger than it appeared online.

It was very clean and had everything we needed. Fantastic location. The welcome mini hamper was a lovely addition. It was lovely and quiet and located just a (very steep) 15 min walk to the front. Would definitely like to return.

Mats by front door need replacing and the door itself needs some attention, but inside everything was in good working order and clean.

The welcome pack and necessary bits and pieces including dishwasher tablets were great for settling in to a very enjoyable weeks holiday. Having glorious weather no doubt helped as well.

Exquisite property with a wonderful, unexpected welcome pack….

.very appreciated. Marvellous location with a short (hilly) walk into Lyme or an alternative, beautiful riverside walk into town. Wonderful art work throughout the property prompting us to look the artist up.

A great find!

The Stable is in a tranquil setting and in easy reach by foot or bus of Lyme Regis. The River Lim walk is nearby, interspersed with places of interest. The Stable is eclectically furnished, embracing modern and vintage, It suited all our needs for a restful holiday. There were a couple of maintenance issues that did not really affect us, but mentioned them to Lyme Bay offices which is just down the road. We had beautiful weather, so were able to enjoy days out in the surrounding areas, which included dog friendly cafes and restaurants/pubs. Will return to this one. Thank you

Lovely accommodation great location for our needs.

Very thoughtful welcome pack containing local produce much appreciated.

Could do with a few minor niggles fixing but apart from the it was lovely

Had to unblock the sink in the bedroom.

Couldn't use channel changer. No where to put rubbish as the bin was full when we arrived. Left our rubbish at the side of the bin. We had to bring bottles and cans back home with us. The chairs in the lounge were old and rickety. But the weather was great and the accommodation was quite and peaceful.

A delightful cottage which was almost Tardis-like on entering.

The Welcome pack was far beyond our expectations and most enjoyable. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and bedroom storage was more than ample. The only slight negative relates to the sofa which seems to be a little tired and the two arm chairs are dated. All in all a wonderful stay.

Lovely quiet stay, could not fault the accomodation, thankyou for the welcome pack, would definately stay again.

Lovely cottage in an excellent location, We really enjoyed ourselves.

It could do we a really good clean and new pillows but it’s a fantastic little place to stay Will definitely recommend

A lovely cottage in a fabulous garden enhanced by the art work of the owner.

I was sorry to leave.

We left feedback on a couple of matters in the property before we left for Lyme Bay holidays.

Otherwise, it was a great second stay in this property. It is so well located for walking into Lyme but also for travelling by car or bus to other parts of Dorset and Devon. It is very comfortable, well equipped and clean. Being able to sit out on the terrace and observe the scenery and listen to the birds is most relaxing.

Lovely accommodation, perfect location, very restful.

Easy to get lots of different places.

The Stable was very comfortable and well-equipped, everything worked properly and the parking spot near the door was very convenient, as was a bedroom with level access for my less mobile relative.

The deck out back was lovely though damp weather meant we didn't use it during this visit. The only small difficulty was finding the property when we arrived in the dark. Satnav took us to the private road which has different branches, named properties and no numbers, so it took a bit of trial and error. Now I have found it I would be very happy to stay there again.

Overall very clean and well presented but furniture requires updating.

Bed 1 duvet and mattress needs replacing, dips badly and fraying, TV so old! No WI-FI for 5 of the 7 days, Lyme Bay Holidays emailed owner, no response but chased after 3 days then rectified. Property in quiet position but pictures misleading. No outlook front or back due to tall trees and shrubbery. 10 min walk down steep hill to centre and sea front of lovely Lyme Regis but follow the river walk and it’s flat. Bus stop on main road opposite entrance to the property, very useful !!! If the above issues were rectified would possibly return. Lyme Bay Holidays we’re very helpful and efficient.

Loved the private and quiet setting and that the property has 2 bathrooms.

Nice to be out of the busy town despite the 20m walk down/up the hill. Initial issues with food in the dishwasher, shortage of glasses and a bulb not working were resolved within hours, than you Lyme Bay Holidays. Feedback.. please reinvest some rent on a tax-deductable new bed. The old one is lumpy and threadbare at the edges. Overall very happy with our stay.

We spent a chilly August weekend in a cold cottage with no heating.

Owners do not welcome you or share their contact details.

The stable was clean and functional, we had three problems, one, the shower in twin room was not getting hot, two, the remote for the TV was missing, and one of the wooden chairs came apart.

We rang to let lyme bay, holidays know, could not fault them, they came straight away and sorted out issues, excellent service. The furniture needs updating, the sofa was ok, but the two wooden chairs, antique, were not fit for purpose, the double bed mattress needs replacing, it was so old and lumpy. Also the garden hedges around the decking were very overgrown. Will not return to that property.

The Stable is a beautiful place to stay.

Quiet, secluded area but close enough to Lyme Regis to walk to the beach (definitely harder on the walk back uphill however) The property itself is gorgeous with a mixture of the old and new and would happily stay here again Only faults, the double bed could do with replacing as its got a massive dip on each side which can be slightly uncomfortable. Also the plants surrounding the terrace need cutting back All in all a great time and would have no trouble reccommending the Stable to others

The location was very pleasant, the overall standard was was also good, although the lounge area seating was basic and would benefit from updating.

Located about a mile from the sea front it is a good walk especially on returning due to the rising route.

Everything was good but a couple of things kitchen tap was loose and plug was stuck in toilet sink in double bedroom was reported but nobody came to look before we left

We really enjoyed our stay at the Stable.

It was secluded and quiet but within walking distance of Lyme Regis, which we liked, as it saved driving and parking every day. We felt the images of the front of the property and the terrace/patio at the back were slightly misleading, as the trees/shrubs are quite overgrown in reality. We would have liked the plants/shrubs on the terrace to have been trimmed back, but otherwise it was lovely.

We enjoyed our stay at this property.

It is in an excellent location and it is very well equipped. However, we were seriously inconvenienced by the skylight in the main bedroom. It has no blind and is east-facing, so the light at daybreak is very bright. We recommend the installation of a blind! We really enjoyed sitting out on the terrace but the website photographs of it are dated.

Lovely property.

Very handy to visit several nearby places. Would certainly return again.

Lovely welcome pack on arrival.

The stables has everything you need. Very clean and comfortable stay. Quiet location but close to lyme regis and amenities. Underfloor heating was appreciated as it was cold for a few days but the stables stays warm for ages.(May was still 12 degrees). The only reason I put 4 stars was lyme bay holidays forgot the welcome book for 2 days and it took a while to work everything out. Lovely stay , lovely area, lovely cottage.

Tastefully furnished and decorated.

Lovely peaceful location.

Ideal quiet property with nice natural setting away from the main hub of town.

Probably more suited to good walkers as it is a good hike from the sea front. There is a bus stop opposite the private drive with buses both directions hourly so still a good property to access Lyme and neighbouring towns. Nearest pub/restaurant/hotel within a reasonable walking distance. Can’t fault the facilities or cleanliness of the property with safe private parking and nice views over the valley.

A lovely cottage and very clean, good space, and peaceful surroundings.

Lovely welcome package and everything was there to make our stay easy including washing liquid; cloths and bin bags. Feedback for improvement:- 1/ washing machine leaked due to a broken inner tube which we did report to the letting company. 2/ recommend insect/ mosquito repellent:- plug ins for rooms and candles for outside - would make night times more comfortable 3/ children’s crockery and cutlery (ie things that won’t break due to small hands) - plastic or bamboo cups/ bowels and plates 4/ we separated our rubbish but found no recycling - would be good

The property was beautifully presented and plenty of room for our family of four.

My worry before the visit was that it wouldn’t be very private- as it’s attached to the main house, but it was well sectioned off and there was plenty of privacy- apart from a delightful dog being nosey and poking his head through the gate! Parking and access was also very easy - which is great for Lyme Regis! There is a lovely terrace overlooking a garden with table and chairs which we made good use of. My only comment would be if you had young children I don’t think there was access to the garden for the stable - which was absolutely fine for us as our children are adults- but might be disappointing for younger families. All in all we couldn’t fault it and had a lovely holiday- would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay and fabulous locaton.

This is our second stay here as a family of 4 and would highly recommend.

Excellent two bedroom bungalow style property.

Very clean and well laid out. Could benefit from a tumble dryer but enjoyed our stay.

Cottage very clean and bright.

Sofa and chairs very uncomfortable. No shaving point in either bathroom. Temperature control on showers needs fixing - Very hot or freezing cold. We did not appreciate how hilly Lyme Regis is. Would say the 15/20 minute walk advertised to and from Lyme very ambitious - especially walking back up the hills. Those with walking difficulties or older guests would definitely struggle. Having said all that we did enjoy our stay and break.
