The Jurassic Coast is nearly on your doorstep at this cosy cottage in Charmouth. A great option for families, the open-plan living area has relaxation written all over it. It's a traditional townhome spread across three storeys, so expect steep stairs – especially the set leading up to the top-floor twin bedroom. The fireplace is ideal for chilly evenings, while the private garden is perfect for sundowners at dusk. Keen to dip your toes in the sea? Charmouth Beach is a ten-minute walk away. Or jump in the car and explore all Dorset has to offer.

This traditional stone-built home has an idyllic cottage garden, perfect for children to explore, and a patio area for adults to relax on. We love the views over the garden and the Dorset countryside from this home, which is spread over three levels. The top-floor bedrooms have low beams, so they may not be suitable for taller guests. Otherwise, this cottage is perfect for families or groups of friends looking to explore all that Charmouth has to offer, including its family-friendly beach.

You'll find this charming cottage in Charmouth, just a ten-minute walk from the beach.

With a summerhouse, quaint bistro table, and a second table ideal for alfresco dining, you can bask in the summer weather and admire the views of the countryside. Inside, a wood burner has chilly evenings covered – though you'll need to supply your own logs – while the three bedrooms upstairs make a comfortable retreat after a long day in the fresh air.

Charmouth Charm

Balcony

Perched on the seafront in Lyme Regis, this second-floor apartment offers postcard-worthy panoramas that won't disappoint. Sit back, relax, and watch the tide roll in from the leather armchairs – thanks to the large windows, the scenery is always front and centre. Even better is the small balcony, the perfect spot for a glass of wine as the sun goes down. The apartment is a great size for two, though a third guest could be accommodated on a sofa bed with prior notice. And the location? You can't beat it. A steep passageway leads directly to the beach, putting the saltwater and single shore right on your doorstep.

Single-Level Home

Rooftop Terrace

With wonderful views over Lyme Bay from its south-facing terrace, this apartment has a great seaside setting. There’s a barbecue here too for sunny alfresco lunches. Inside, there’s a vibrant open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area equipped with everything you need to feel at home. Location-wise, you’ll find museums such as the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum a short stroll away. Church Cliff Beach is also within easy walking distance. This place is a brilliant base for exploring the area, whether you're planning a family holiday, a trip with friends, or a business stay.

 Jurassic Coast Vistas

Overlooking the Marine Parade, this apartment is a great option if you’re looking to experience the vibrant heart of Lyme Regis. It’s worth noting it’s possible to hear street noise from the neighbouring bar, but you will have incredible sea views from the cosy living room. A car parking permit can be supplied on request. Plus, you’ll find everything you could need within easy reach. Stroll to the beach or adventure further along the Jurassic Coast towards Sidmouth and Axminster. 

The Way by the Sea

Set on the popular Marine Parade in Lyme Regis, this home is an ideal base for a small family or group of friends. You’ll need to take care with the steps and uneven ground here, and because of the desirable location, you may hear a little noise during your stay. But, we think you’ll be too busy soaking up the fresh sea air to notice. The key thing that caught our eye here is the secret passageway to the beach – so stroll down to the sea, after which, a plethora of beachfront eateries await ready to serve up an authentic coastal dinner.

After spending your time gazing at geological phenomena and prehistoric intrigues of the Jurassic Coast, Lyme Regis makes for a wonderful base to return back to the 21st century. This charming town has bustling high streets, independent boutiques, cafés, and a microbrewery where you can sample local English ales. But it’s not a complete escape from nature either – just a minute walk from this quaint cottage, you’ll also find the sandy shores of Lyme Regis beach.

Full of character inside and out, arriving here is exactly the English seaside abode you’d imagine. With cream walls alongside a bright blue front door and matching sash window frames, a nautical theme immediately springs to mind.

Inside this traditional building, the fresh, modern decor makes you feel immediately relaxed. We love the earthy palette of peach, cream, dark brown wooden floors, and a moss-coloured sofa. Wicker pieces and textures bring a sandy look, offering another reminder of your coastal setting. Further nods to the nautical theme are found throughout the cosy cottage, with anchors, captain’s wheels, and a glossy shoal of decorative fish bringing the seaside to life. Anyone for some fish and chips?

Nautilidae

Well, the sea and beach views from this apartment’s private balcony are stunning. You can enjoy the vistas from this home’s large windows in the living room, too. The bedroom is compact, and there’s not much storage here, but there is a wardrobe in the utility. Also, the kitchen is on the small side – that said, it has everything you need and there’s an array of eateries a short stroll away. And, of course, the beach is footsteps away. This place is the perfect base for exploring all that Dorset has to offer.

Wake up to the sound of the waves every morning with a stay in this seaside retreat. You can also enjoy impressive views across Cobb Harbour and the beach from the private roof terrace. Inside, the rooms have been lovingly restored while retaining a wonderful sense of heritage and character. It’s worth noting the stairs are steep and the two pull-out beds in the living room are best suited to children, but this is a wonderful option for families. Plus, it’s just a short stroll into the heart of Lyme Regis. 


Beautiful Skies

Parking On Premises

Perfect for a couple’s seaside retreat, you’ll find this first-floor pad in the heart of Lyme Regis. And while it is tailor-made for two, the home can accommodate up to four people – just bear in mind, at full occupancy two guests will draw the short straw and sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. Still, it’s a small price to pay for this apartment’s enviable location. With museums, shops, delightful eateries and the beach on your doorstep, there’s something for everyone here. 

Seaside Tranquillity

Only 50 yards from the seafront, beach, and eateries, this cottage is well-placed to discover all Lyme Regis has to offer. You're in the heart of the action here – you can wake up in the morning and be sunbathing on the beach in less than ten minutes. The cottage dates back to the 1600s, so expect lots of character inside – we're talking wooden beams, exposed stonework, and a toasty log burner in the dining room to make your dinners feel extra cosy. There's also a quaint gravel garden – it's not the biggest, but it works well for sundowners on summer evenings.

The Cobbler

With beautiful views of the Dorset coast, this four-story beachfront property is a real gem. Enjoy the sea vistas from the private terrace and from inside this home too. The fully-equipped kitchen and dining area are ideal for entertaining family and friends. When you want to explore the beach, it’s just steps away from this home. You’ll also find plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops on your doorstep. Further afield, explore the Jurassic Coast at Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre, or go for a hike at Stonebarrow Hill.

The Golden Stars

Lyme Regis sits on Dorset's Jurassic Coast, where you can stroll from a bustling high street of tea rooms, boutiques, and chip shops, to scenes like a fossilised beach known as Ammonite Pavement. At this intersection where prehistoric and modern times merge into a unique town, your Grade II listed home sits somewhere in the middle – just a five-minute stroll from the fresh waters of Lyme Regis Beach.

Tucked away in the centre, this fully renovated loft immediately feels like somewhere you can relax. We love the original, Georgian features such as the stone wall, lovingly restored to its former glory – but also now functioning as a drinks hatch from the kitchen. Anyone for a top-up of English sparkling wine? While you’re in here, pop the local station on the retro-style radio while you prepare a picnic to take to the beach later in the afternoon.

But before you head off, check out the upstairs. With warming colour palettes and soft furnishings throughout, comfort is easily achieved. This is especially true of the cosy bedrooms, where dusty pinks, upcycled furniture, and floral prints create a real homely atmosphere. Take in the cleansing, sea air from the windows – you’re certainly going to sleep well tonight.

Spiral Shells

An idyllic coastal retreat awaits at this blue cottage in Lyme Regis. The beach is just a twenty-minute walk away, and the rest of the Jurassic Coast is easily accessible by car. We love the bright and cosy living space back home. It's the ideal remedy after a day in the fresh air – and the glimpse of the sea from the kitchen window is a nice touch. The cherry on top is the enclosed garden, where you and your four-legged friends can enjoy dinner and drinks as the sun goes down.

The Fossil Hunter

Stradling the border between Devon and Dorset on over five acres of woodland, this stately and delightfully quirky home can thank the secluded location for the beautiful countryside views. Between the untamed garden and on-site meadows, you'll find a tiered deck with a sauna, hot tub and ample seating. Even further along is a natural pool for warmer days. If you'd prefer a day at the beach, Lyme Regis lies only a few minutes away. And exploring the Jurassic Coast is a must, Durdle Door especially – it's a little over an hour but well worth the trip.

The Road to the Meadow

We love this home’s wonderful terrace overlooking the town and Lyme Bay – it’s the perfect place to relax with family and friends. Inside, there’s plenty of room for entertaining and all of the bedrooms are en-suite. There's also an open fire for when the Dorset weather turns chilly. The location is excellent too – this home is in the centre of Lyme Regis, close to pubs, restaurants, cafes, and shops. Take a stroll along the Cobb overlooking the harbour – it’s within walking distance or spend the day on the golden sands of the town’s beach.

The Edwardian

Set five minutes back from the beach, this Dorset duplex apartment is a winning combination of appealing location and domestic comfort. Hidden in a lane dating back to Saxon times, the home was once a popular pub, and retains this homely charm across its open plan living room, kitchen and dining area. While the comfy double bedroom is on the ground floor too along with the bathroom, there's also a single bedroom down the stairs, which still gets plenty of natural light. Besides the beach, there's lots to explore in Lyme Regis, including the popular film location of Cobb Harbour – and looking beyond, there's excellent access to England's UNESCO protected Jurassic Coast.

Seaside Crown

Set in the picturesque village of Whitchurch Canonicorum, this single-level home offers a tranquil escape in the heart of Dorset. With beautiful views over the fields beyond, the garden is a great place to unwind. There’s also a paddock with a small orchard area. Inside this old, converted dairy, there are plenty of character features, along with a traditional farmhouse-style kitchen. We love the wood burner too – the armchair here is the perfect place for reading a book. It might be difficult to tear yourself away from here, but there’s plenty to see and do. The village has a pub which serves food, while Charmouth, with its popular beach, is just over two miles away. 

Dorset Orchards

Hidden away in a quiet Dorset village, this marvellous thatched cottage makes for a perfect rural retreat. Surrounded by greenery and only fifteen minutes from the coast, the cottage boasts elegant period features on the inside and a beautiful garden outside – complete with its own stream – for you to wander at leisure. Its three bedrooms are upstairs and linked with no separate access, meaning whoever takes the first bedroom will need to accommodate other guests passing through. Beyond the cottage's verdant grounds, it's only a short drive to the beaches of Lyme Regis, as well as the amazing topography of the Jurassic Coast.

The Secret Stream

Tucked away on a pedestrian lane dating back to the Saxon times, this cottage is as charming as it looks. The back patio is a sweet spot for sundowners, even if it's a tad overlooked. There's also a cosy living area, a well-appointed kitchen, and two bedrooms – just note that the second is snug and best for little ones. Location-wise, you couldn't ask for better. Lyme Regis' town centre is a short walk away, where you'll find a bevvy of pubs, shops, and restaurants. The beach is less than a ten-minute stroll away, too – perfect for families and four-legged friends.

Whether you’re after rural rambles or swimming in the sea, there's something to pique your interest. Inside, underfloor heating means you'll be toasty warm no matter the weather, while floor-to-ceiling windows ensure guests enjoy a splendid view from every corner of the home. Food is important to your chef host, so despite the compact size of the kitchen it contains everything you could need. We'd definitely recommend sampling charcuterie made from his rare breed pigs and you'll be supplied with farm fresh eggs on arrival. The comfortable bed is perfectly positioned to catch a glimpse of the stars through remote-controlled skylight

Meadow View

If you’re seeking a central location, this Grade II-listed apartment has your name on it. In the heart of Lyme Regis, yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the high street, you’re within walking distance of the beach, souvenir shops, and a choice of eateries here. The home is well set up sociable meals, thanks to a handy serving hatch linking the kitchen and dining area. We think this place would suit two couples or a family – although it’s worth noting that the bed in the second bedroom is a small double, so might not suit everyone.

Lavender Sea 

Calling all history buffs. This Grade II-listed apartment was the former headquarters of Captain Briggs, the leader of the D-Day landings at Omaha Beach. It's on the first floor – and the building itself is perched on a steep hill – so though you'll need to climb a few stairs, you'll be treated to postcard-worthy sea views. We love the cosy feel of the living space, especially the characterful window seats. And the location? It’s ideal for exploring. Lyme Regis Front Beach is a fifteen-minute stroll away, and the town's shops and eateries are nearby, too.

Some holidays are all about cramming in as many activities as you can manage, and rushing around in a crowd. Not here. This delightful holiday home can be found on the edge of a farm that’s been here since the 17th century. Staying here gives you the chance to live slowly, and to relax and unwind. 

The cabin is warm and welcoming, adorned with flowers from the farm, and boasting enough windows to flood the space with light. You’ll wake up each morning in the huge bed feeling rested, having enjoyed the kind of deep sleep you only get in the countryside. After a breakfast of fresh eggs, you’ll be ready to explore the area – and there’s plenty to explore. 

Charmouth Beach is ten minutes away by car and is the perfect place for a paddle. Hunt for fossils and skim stones, marvelling that this little haven is in the UK. The farm is only five miles inland from the sea, tucked away in between Dorset and Devon’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty – keen walkers will be in heaven. 

After a long day of hiking and paddling, it’s a real treat to watch the sun begin to set over the cow meadow. Pour a glass of wine and admire the views that stretch all the way to Somerset. Later on, sitting around the fire pit, you’ll spot bats swooping through the trees above you. House martins and swallows nest around the farm, too, and you may also spot foxes, hedgehogs, badgers and roe deer. Rare orchids and meadow flowers bloom in the pastures surrounding the home, adding a sweet aroma to the country air. 

This is a perfect sanctuary for two – you’ll never want to leave.
