Cumberland Cottage is a well-regarded holiday rental in Lyme Regis, Dorset, appreciated for its comfortable interiors, sea views, and secure parking. The property is dog-friendly with a lawned garden and a sun terrace. Guests have praised the cleanliness, the welcome pack, and the cosy lounge with a wood burner. While some guests mentioned minor issues with maintenance and heating control, the overall experience is positive, with many looking forward to returning.
The cottage generally receives high marks for cleanliness, with guests finding it tidy and well-kept on arrival. There was a single mention of the exterior needing attention, but the interior consistently met guests' expectations for cleanliness.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the town and sea views, with secure parking adding to its appeal. Some guests noted traffic noise and a challenging walk back from town due to the hill, but the overall sentiment about the location is very positive.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of the beds and the large living room. However, there were comments about the heating being difficult to control and the single beds being hard, which suggests room for improvement in this area.
Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable lounge area. However, guests have raised issues with maintenance such as full bins on arrival, overgrown garden, and heating control.

A beautiful detached cottage resting in Lyme Regis, Dorset, with a view over the ever-changing waterscapes of the coast. With a large garden easy access to the town centre, this property is perfect for a family looking to explore the Jurassic coast. Park off-road and enter this wonderful stone front property, making yourself at home in the fabulous sitting area with high ceilings with roof beams and large French windows allowing an airy feel to this light and spacious room, where wooden flooring stretches throughout and there is a great selection of sofas for you to recline on, with a wonderful woodburning stove and stone feature wall at the foot of the room adding a touch of opulence, and a dining table with a view to the bay, this room is a fantastic social area for everyone to enjoy. A kitchen with great amenities encourages you to cook up a storm, with the roofbeams continued throughout this space and tiled flooring, giving this room a vintage feel. After spending the day at the beach, you can enjoy a refreshing shower or a soak in the bath before settling down for the night in one of the two bedrooms available, beginning with a king-size with storage, homely furniture and there is a twin room available, perfect for children, with a hint of blue throughout. Outside you will find a sitting area, accessible via the sitting room French windows, where you can dine al fresco on the lawn and enjoy the sunshine and sea air. The town of Lyme Regis is only a short walk away, offering a great number of shops selling home made goods and artwork for you to explore before dining together in one of the many eateries available for you. If it is history that piques your interest, then visit one of the two museums available, the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum and the Lyme Regs Museum, before spending the afternoon at the local marine aquarium. Visiting the coast is a must, and there are a variety of beaches to choose from, beginning with a stroll across Cobb Harbour, and you can search for fossils on the lose by Monmouth and Lyme Regis Fossil beach. With so much to do, you are bound to make a holiday you will remember with a stay at Cumberland Cottage.
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.
