Riverview is a well-appreciated cottage in Lyme Regis, Dorset, praised for its excellent location, spaciousness, and comfort. Guests enjoy the sea views, proximity to the beach and shops, and the homely feel of the property. While some maintenance issues are noted, the responsive service and overall experience have led to repeat visits and recommendations.

Cleanliness

Most guests found Riverview clean and comfortable. However, one review mentioned disappointment with the initial cleanliness, which was promptly addressed. This indicates good service recovery but suggests occasional lapses in cleaning standards.

Location

The location is consistently praised for being close to the main street, beach, and town centre, with sea views from the property. It is considered an excellent base for exploring Lyme Regis.

Comfort

The property is described as comfortable, spacious, and homely, with a good lounge for relaxing. However, concerns about the suitability of stairs for elderly guests slightly affect the comfort score.

Facilities

Facilities are generally good, with a recent kitchen upgrade and ample amenities. Maintenance issues like painted-shut windows and the need for handrails are noted, but the responsive service to reported problems is a positive aspect.

About this property

Enjoying a superb location right in the heart of the bustling seaside town of Lyme Regis, is this delightful split-level apartment, Riverview. The ideal holiday home for a family on holiday, Riverview does exactly what it says on the tin; it offers enchanting views over the River Lym which runs directly behind the property and you can also spot captivating views of the sea from the upstairs balcony. The accommodation is split over the first and second-floor and is spacious and immaculately presented with a good-sized sitting room greeting guests as they arrive where there is ample seating and attractive picture windows offering views over the river and the streets of Lyme Regis. There is also an alternative space for socialising, a second-floor snug where you can curl up and get cosy together. The kitchen is fully fitted with everything even the most experienced of chefs could possibly need to rustle up some hearty fayre for the whole family and the elegant dining room is all set up ready to go for long, enjoyable family meals. As the sun sets over Lyme Regis, why not pull up a chair on the balcony, pour yourself a drink and soak up those sublime views? When bedtime calls choose from the double or a twin but both are stylishly presented and offer an inviting space for laying your weary heads. After a refreshing shower or soak in the bath, you’re ready to hit the streets and explore. Lyme Regis has a good selection of shops and amenities which are right on the doorstep of Riverview as well as the beach, harbour and causeway and a visit to the museum and aquarium is a must too. If you want to explore some of the history of the region then check out any of the beautiful stately homes in the region which include Forde Abbey and Gardens, Athelhampton House and Gardens, Mapperton House and Lulworth Castle. Towns worth a visit are Charmouth, Dorchester, Weymouth and Seaton. Riverview promises its guests an enjoyable stay.

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!
