Second-in-a-row Christmas at this lovely accommodation. Enjoyed carol singing in Lyme Regis again. Christmas Eve dinner this year was at The Three Horse Shoes - excellent. Hive Beach, Charmouth, West Bay all taken in plus Boxing Day on the beach with coffee and deckchairs. Found some collectable porcelain at the Antique Centre.

Great location in a quiet village, quintessentially English! Perfect for visiting local beauty spots and beaches. We enjoyed our family weekend. Well equipped kitchen, lovely linen on beds. Loved the fire as extremely warm without the work of a log burner. Welcome pack really appreciated.
