Photos and Description of this Lyme Regis and West Dorset holiday cottage
3 Bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, sleeps 6

Madeira Cottage was built in 1818. With its distinctive bay windows it is frequently pictured on chocolate boxes! Perfect for all ages, its current owners have used this grade II listed building as a treasured family retreat for 10 years. With its low ceilings and gently sloping floors it still retains much original period charm which is enhanced by the simple antique furniture and tasteful furnishings. However, the facilities are modern; new very good beds, heating, brand new fitted kitchen and four well appointed bathrooms. Among those who at some time have stayed there are Captain Marryat, the writer of sea stories, his friend Cruikshank the artist and, at a later date, the poet Walter de la Mare.

Madeira Cottage occupies pride of place on the beachfront just beyond the high tide wall. Yet it is only two minutes walk from the main thoroughfare, Broad Street. In the other direction, a gentle stroll along the front brings you to the harbour with its renowned Cobb, its collection of pubs, ice cream stalls, fresh fish shop and sundry other seaside traders. Lyme Regis is in the centre of magnificent Lyme Bay, the jewel of the Jurassic Coast, a world heritage site. 2006 saw the reopening of the beachfront after extensive coastal defence works: it now boasts a larger sandy beach, making Lyme the perfect venue for a safe, traditional family holiday.

Comments from Owner Guestbook

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
'We had a fabulous time at Madeira Cottage, the settings couldn't have been
more central and you and your wife have obviously put in a lot of time and
effort in creating a great holiday home.'
' It was cosy and homely, but very
stylish too. I would highly recommend your cottage, but judging by the
amount of admiring glances from passers by, you will be fully booked next
year.'

'Many thanks for your kind card and the wine in the fridge! Claire was lovely
too - very welcoming and friendly.'

'Congratulations on a fabulous new business venture - I can't imagine it was
easy to 'let go' of your holiday home.'
