About this property
Fawley is a wonderful, detached holiday home located in Lyme Regis Dorset, on the popular UNESCO World heritage Jurassic Coast. Sleeping up to eight guests, the accommodation has been carefully considered to offer everything needed for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday amongst family and friends.
The open plan kitchen diner is the real heart of the home, bright and spacious and a great sociable space. A welcome pack for your arrival ensures a great start to your holiday and will include milk, tea and a selection of locally sourced produce and treats. The well fitted kitchen is well-equipped for preparing meals that the group can enjoy with the option of the adjoining dining area for mealtimes or guests can step outside to the seating area for alfresco entertaining when the weather allows. Spend your down time in the lounge, a restful room with feature fireplace and electric woodburning stove providing a homely feel, perfect for relaxing after day at the beach.
When it comes to nighttime, there are four bedrooms in total; a double bedroom on the ground floor and three further bedrooms situated on the first floor. The spacious king size bedroom with en-suite shower room enjoys some views over Lyme Regis and the sea beyond. The second double bedroom and the twin room, both overlooking the garden, share the family bathroom where you can truly relax and indulge with the jacuzzi bath.
Outside, the gardens wrap around the house with steps leading up to a large lawned area surrounded by pretty shrubs and planting, whilst to the side there is a gravelled seating area with table and chairs. With sandy beaches and popular visitor attractions,
Lyme Regis has all the ingredients for a fun filled seaside holiday the whole family can enjoy. Take a walk along the seafront to the famous Cobb harbour where you can enjoy water sports activities, jump aboard a boat trip or learn about the area’s diverse marine life at the Lyme Regis Aquarium. An area renowned for fossil hunters, a visit to the Charmouth Heritage Centre offers a chance to see amazing fossil collections or join in one of the guided fossil walks on the beach. For avid walkers, the South West Coastal footpath offers breath-taking scenic walks and takes in landmarks such as Golden Cap, the highest point on the south coast, as well as Charmouth and Seatown, both popular seaside locations and great spots to stop off for a cold beverage on route. Other popular days out include The Donkey Sanctuary at Sidmouth which is open all year round or the picturesque fishing village of Beer, with its galleries, gift shops and eateries.
However you plan to spend your days, Fawley will be your home-from-home for a memorable holiday exploring this stunning part of Jurassic coastline.
The delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis has much to offer its visitors, boasting a maze of narrow streets filled with craft and antique shops, galleries and cafes. Take a stroll along the world-famous Cobb causeway overlooking the ancient harbour, where fishing trips can be enjoyed, or try your hand at fossil hunting in the area. The scenic coastal path offers excellent walking opportunities and spectacular views of the stunning Jurassic coast, whilst the gently shelving sands and sparkling waters of Lyme Bay provide the perfect place in which to relax and unwind. A holiday destination to savour!

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely property in an excellent location. However our stay was spoilt by the shower over the bath being out of action. We reported the leak and the maintenance man planned to seal what was the wrong area, we pointed out that the problem was actually a badly fitted bath requiring more than just sealant patching. It was causing water leakage into both the downstairs bedroom & kitchen dining area. We did not want to cause anymore damage so agreed we would just use the en-suite shower but wanted to keep use of the bath for our 2 year old grandson. We did expect that we would be suitably compensated for this but weâre offered an extra night in a property they were obviously having problems letting given the number of free weeks available and the large reductions of £300+ they were making. I did expect that we would get a compensation offer at least equal to that but we only received a small offer which we decided to take as better than nothing. We were disappointed as we thought we were being helpful to the owners in trying to avoid greater problems in what is a great property for a holiday.

The house is at the top of a hill so its a very pleasant walk down to the Cobb or Town, quite a hill back up. But this is expected in Lyme Regus! (we had our 90 year old mother in law with us and she managed the hill!). The house has all you need and quite homely no complaints. The micro wave is a little high as some other people have remarked but we found this no problem. Our only suggestion it would be advantageous to have a non slip mat in the main bath room bath for when taking a shower. To sum up we had a wonderful time there.

Amazing location, would definitely book again. The only thing I would say is the parking advertised was for 2 cars, this would need to be 2 small cars, we have 2 larger vehicles and only 1 would fit. Lots of residential parking near by and a large car park so this was not an issue for us. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
