The Old Stables - sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

Conveniently located on the edge of Charmouth, and just a 6-minute drive or cycle away from Lyme Regis, The Old Stables is a special single storey holiday cottage with all one could wish for when taking a break in this popular part of South Dorset. The cottage has been lovingly prepared and carefully furnished with great attention to detail, to ensure that your holiday accommodation is relaxing and comfortable, despite being just a small little gem.

From the parking area, you stroll across the garden and through the pretty terrace where you will find the all-important hot tub, and garden table and chairs, before you take several stone steps down to the front door of your holiday retreat. On opening the front door, you step in to the open-plan sitting room with feature wood burning stove and comfortable sofa, where you can relax and watch television or enjoy reading a good book. The adjoining kitchen provides the space and equipment for preparing tasty treats, which can be enjoyed at the table and chairs, or outside on the garden terrace on warmer days.

The attractive double bedroom is a lovely space, complete with a beautiful hand-carved sliding door for the en-suite shower room, a bright dressing table area, television, storage, and hooks for the bath robes that are provided.

The Old Stables is perfect for a memorable break, and ideally situated for exploring the iconic Jurassic Coast, and popular seaside destinations along the South Dorset and South Devon coast.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy
We were very grateful that they let us bring our dog after a mix up with the booking.The old Stables are very cosy, in a good position for the coast.The only thing that lets the property down is the lack of storage in the bedroom and kitchen.If the weather had been really bad we would have struggled to get things dry and if we had taken enough food for the week there would not have been enough space to store everything.
