The property is set back from Coombe Street and accessed via a shared block-paved driveway. There is a beautiful courtyard area at the front of the cottage with a seating area and space for various pot plants and shrubs that can provide a parking space if required.
Coombe Street runs parallel to the river, towards the sea. It was the main street of the royal manor before the 1284 charter and is one of the oldest streets in town. The cottage is a stones throw from the town mill which is the creative heart of Lyme Regis, nestling around a cobbled courtyard. These restored mill buildings house a working flour watermill, as well as art galleries, artists’ studios, restaurants, a silversmith, a seamstress, a pottery and a micro-brewery. The town is situated in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. There are superb coastal walks including the South West Coast Path and miles of unspoilt countryside to explore. The town is well known for its extensive range of independent shops, boutiques and excellent restaurants. There are numerous water based recreational and sporting facilities such as sailing, power boating, water skiing, diving, paddle boarding, kayaking and sea fishing. The nearby town of Axminster provides a wider range of facilities including local shops, pubs, restaurants, schools, a small hospital, library, Post Office, GP surgeries, dental surgeries and a veterinary surgery.
Communication links are excellent: the A35 is within easy reach and provides good access to the city of Exeter, the coast and to major traffic routes including the M5. Axminster station, approximately 6.6 miles away, has regular services to London Waterloo. Well regarded schools in the area include St. Michael’s C of E VA Primary School in Lyme Regis, The Woodroffe School (rated Outstanding by Ofsted), Colyton Grammar and Chard, St. John’s International School and Perrott Hill.
