The estate offers lovely walks and friendly locals, with a special mention for the nearby Koffee. Some minor issues were noted regarding directions, parking, and the need for better shower facilities and heating instructions.
Reviewers consistently mention the property being spotless and very clean, indicating a high level of cleanliness throughout their stay.
Unfortunately we’ve been unable assess this category comprehensively enough based on the reviews we’ve received from guests about this property.
The property is well-equipped and provides a comfortable stay, though there were comments about the cold in the evenings and a preference for better shower facilities.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the inclusion of dog amenities. However, points are deducted for the lack of a proper shower upstairs and the need for clearer heating instructions.
The provision of a detailed guest information folder and recommendations for first-time visitors reflect thoughtfulness. No gifts are mentioned, so while the property is considerate of guest needs, it cannot be scored on gift provision.
Lyme Regis 3.5 miles. 2 Engine House is a magnificent, three-bedroom holiday home, situated on the historic Rousdon Estate, perfect for families and friends looking to enjoy this stunning stretch of the Jurassic Coastline on the Devon/Dorset border. Comprising 350 coastal acres of parkland and nature reserve, the Rousdon Estate is located between the seaside towns of Seaton and Lyme Regis making this a perfect destination for a memorable coastal holiday. An impressive home, 2 Engine House has been designed with great attention to detail with delightful characterful features and sympathetic nods to the property’s history. A luxurious and beautifully styled home with some lovely personal touches throughout. The open-plan living space is a double height room with exposed brickwork, high vaulted ceilings and beams. A woodburning stove gives the room a inviting feel, making this a perfect choice for any time of the year. The kitchen is finished to the same high standard offering a fantastic place to conjure up memorable meal times which can be enjoyed together in the dining area. A welcome pack for your arrival ensures a great start to your holiday and will include milk, tea and a selection of locally sourced produce and treats. The first of the three bedrooms, a stylish family room, is located on the ground floor and offers a double and single bed together with an en-suite shower room. Upstairs there are two further bedrooms, a spacious double bedroom and a single room which share the family bathroom with a welcoming freestanding bath, perfect after a day of walking. When it comes to days out, the nearby coastal resort of Lyme Regis is steeped in history, whether you wish to follow in the footsteps of the renowned fossil hunter Mary Anning or stroll around the Cobb Harbour, the backdrop of many TV and film adaptations. You will also find a great selection of restaurants and pubs as well as a good selection of independent shops and galleries. Why not head to the popular fishing village of Beer with its limestone cliffs and pretty beach where it is easy to lose a few hours sat in a deckchair watching the local fishermen hauling their catches ashore. The South West coastal footpath is popular for walkers and takes in pretty fishing villages such as Seatown and Eype and rewards with breath-taking scenic views of the coast towards Chesil Beach and Portland on a clear day. 2 Engine House is a truly delightful holiday cottage, made for memorable holidays on this stunning stretch of the Jurassic Coastline.
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!
