About this property
Situated just a few minutes walk from Charmouth beach, on a private road with no passing traffic overlooking open countryside is this truly special apartment, Willows. The ideal location for a family or couples travelling together, the apartment is as special on the inside as it is on the outside with a warm and welcoming sitting room greeting the visitor as they arrive. Elegantly furnished, the room has wooden beams and stunning patio doors opening onto a Mediterranean-style terrace. Step into the fully equipped kitchen which is the perfect place for preparing delicious food for the whole family. Choose from informal dining around the rustic dining area or open the doors from the sitting room onto the terrace. The views from the covered terrace are simply mesmerising and you can imagine spending hours here soaking up the amazing views and truly immersing yourself in the holiday spirit. If the weather allows then you can enjoy long, languid meals out here indulging in some delicious local produce and quaffing a favourite tipple while enjoying time with family and friends. The gardens are perfect for children (and dogs!) to run around in while the grown-ups can relax. After all that fresh air, you’ll be ready for your beds and guests can choose from a well-presented king-size and an inviting twin, both of which offer fabulous views over the gardens and beyond. Willows truly offers an idyllic setting just 200 yards from the beach with beautiful rural views of Stonebarrow and within walking distance of the village shops and amenities. For the whole family pay a visit to Dinosaurland Fossil Museum, Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium, Axe Valley Wildlife Park and Seaton Tramway. For some historical insights check out Lyme Regis Museum and Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre or to make the most of the coastal location why not book a boat or fishing trip?

The property is comfortable, clean and has everything you need. It was lovely to sit outside enjoying a mornng cuppa and watch the dogs play around in the garden. The location itself is fantastic, it's very cosy and private, yet only a couple of minutes walk away from the beach. The shops are an easy stroll away so the car stayed where it was other than for the odd excursion. We are booking again for next year

There was a brand new bathroom suite together with fitted over the bath shower. Loved the covered area and the beautiful, secure garden. Yes, the electricity was by meter but we only spent about £12. Would highly recommend and I hope to return.

Air freshers do not cover this. Our clothes felt damp cold and smelt musty. 3) nothing was energy efficient hence the charges for electric 4) electric box too high in am 5ft1 couldnât reach it or read a it without a chair. 5) spiders everywhere 6) private road needs work. Weâve a 7 seater for the digs and we had difficulty parking and drinking bing down the road 7) my partner is 6ft head touching the shower 8) not as advertised 9) tvs to small strained to see them. Iâve been booking all the time but we had to leave as wasnât as described and wouldnât recommend this place tbh. Defo donât book it but f health conditions This place is dark out dated and has mould and you can smell this. Donât book! We left using the excuse my sonâs grandfather died. As polite but this place is a health hazard. Enjoy parking.
