Take a stroll into Lyme Regis where there is a good range of shops, bars, boutiques, cafes, tearooms and restaurants as well as a great museum and aquarium and of course a beach, a harbour and the town’s famous causeway. Jump in the car for some days out to places such as Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, Beer Quarry Caves, Chard Museum, Dinosaurland Fossil Museum, Forde Abbey and Gardens and the Jurassic Fun Centre. You can’t come to Dorset and not go to the beach and the best ones to check out include Charmouth, West Bay, Dawlish Warren and Lulworth Cove. Shire View offers guests a relaxing and rewarding holiday.
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.

A holiday destination to savour!

The location and listing were generally good. We had problems with the water not draining from the shower tray in the master bedroom. I removed the inner filter a couple of times, which was not blocked, and that seemed to do the trick. Might be worthwhile having it checked by a plumber as the cause was not obvious. We could not get the towel rail in the master bedroom bathroom to heat up after the first day. Maybe a valve problem. The plastic bags supplied for the rubbish bin basically fell apart when we put much in them. The instructions on recycling in the file were not very clear. Maybe a smaller bin for recycling materials such as cans and glass would be good. The single bedroom could do with a small cupboard for hanging clothes. There is nothing apart from a few draws.

Would thoroughly recommend. Very peaceful and all the amenities you could wish for! If I was being picky, a washing line in the garden wouldâve been good, as it was hard to dry four large beach towels on the airer provided but this is a minor quibble and it certainly didnât detract from the overall holiday experience. My husband and I and our two grown up sons had a great time and really enjoyed our stay at Shire View. Thank you.

The blinds and shutters made the room very dark, which was an excellent option for the light summer mornings. The property had everything you would need for your holiday. It was only a few minutes drive from the coast, with a long stay car park very close which you can download an app for before you set out. Driving was preferable to walking, which there isn't much opportunity to do. All equipment in good working order, very clean. The welcome pack was a very nice idea. Might be worth taking some games, books etc with you if the weather is poor. However, this did not detract from the stay at all.
