Homestead, Lyme Regis is a cosy riverside cabin, 10 mins walk from the beach

Overlooking the River Lym, Homestead is a wooden cabin built in 1915 and recently refurbished to a high standard. This cosy and comfortable home, retaining much of its original charm, provides a perfect base for holidays in Lyme Regis. Footpaths along the tranquil River Lym provide an attractive and easy walk to the seafront, shops, pubs and restaurants, or, heading upstream, walking routes in the beautiful surrounding countryside including the Wessex Ridgeway long distance route. The living room is cosy and comfortable, with a wood-burning stove. There is a sun room at the front of the property providing a lovely spot for relaxing, looking at the river, and watching the world go by. Off-road parking for a medium sized car is available on the property's driveway. Please note the access is awkward. Larger vehicles can be parked nearby. Parents of young children should note the terraced garden and proximity of the river. Monday or Friday changeover.

Cosy cottage in a lovely location
Homestead was clean tidy and comfortable, and was well equipped with everything you need for a self catering holiday. Definitely recommend. A very short walk into Lyme Regis with all its independent shops, cafes etc. The Town Mill and Lyme Regis Museum are well worth visiting. One thing to note, the parking at Homestead is tight as is mentioned in the description so take care.

Perfect Seaside Cabin
Sheenas cabin was a perfect beach side cabin. It was lovely to walk along the river to reach the beach and township. The cabin itself was absolutely spotless and even roomier than the photos showed. We loved being able to eat out or cook up our own meals in the kitchen which had everything we needed. We had a fantastic stay here as it was close to everything - no car was needed!

September Mini Break
A nice, clean and thoughtfully furnished riverfront cabin, providing all we needed for a three night mini break after months of lock down. In a very hilly and steep Lyme Regis the cabin location is perfect as you can walk to town in 10-15 minutes along the river which is reasonably flat compared to much of the town. We appreciated having a dishwasher and although not cold enough to use in September, the wood burner looked very inviting. We did struggle to open the outside key box so perhaps some further instruction would have been helpful. We arrived to find milk and a chocolate bar in the refrigerator and ice in the freezer which was a lovely added touch. I would certainly recommend staying at this property when visiting Lyme Regis.

Staying in Lyme Regis. It is a lovely town with lots of good quality places to eat, and gift shops.
The property is very comfortable and ideally placed for accessing the town. It is the cleanest holiday home we have ever stayed in - my wife did not feel compelled to wash all the dishes and cutlery as soon as we arrived as is usually the case! A couple of suggestions: we struggled with getting the key safe open. Instructions in the 'About your property' information would have been helpful. Also, we had to phone Sheena to find out how to get the central heating to work. Instructions in the property would have avoided this. Also, it would have been nice to have been able to open the sliding door in the conservatory, but I couldn't find a key. All minor points, but the feedback may be helpful.
