"Cosy and comfortable" Karen and Richard

This was our 4th visit and we are already booked for next year. The building has been beautifully restored , it’s so cosy and comfortable.
The bedrooms again have been beautifully decorated, the beds are very comfy and you always get an excellent night’s sleep

"A wonderful place to visit" Jo and Jim, Bristol UK

The minute you’re greeted at the door you feel yourself relax. Everything is calm & well thought out. The delicious aromas of home baking; the beautiful breakfasts, the cosy comfy beds & all the useful advice about local walks, restaurants & things to do we really appreciated. We also felt reassured by all the extra efforts to keep us safe in the current situation. Lyme Regis & Dorset House are a wonderful place to visit. Full of fresh air & fun!

"Amazing 4 course breakfast" Clive B

The real highlight though is the amazing 4 course breakfast option, which delivers perfectly on taste, choice and nutritional value. You will struggle to find a better breakfast anywhere.
