Red House Reviews

We loved our week at the Red House. It was my 70th birthday a few days before & so were away with family 9 the 4 grandsons loved the huge garden & facilities available. We had a table tennis tournament amongst ourselves & Grandad was the winner, the boys played everyday, loved it. Walking from the property following the woods & stream to Lyme Regis is lovely, although all up hill coming back, but worth the effort. Overall holiday property was exceptional & ideal for family gatherings etc. has everything you need inside & out.

Jennifer

This is a perfect house for any large gathering. It feels like a family home and is very comfortable. It has everything you could possibly need to keep everyone happy. My grandchildren enjoyed all the books and toys and the wonderful garden. There is so much space both inside and out with plenty of good quality facilities you don't really need to leave yet is only a 10 minute drive of the beach. Any queries we had were answered and addressed quickly by both the housekeeper and owner for which we thank them. We would suggest that a key safe at the back door with a couple more keys for both doors would be helpful as we found using the back door easier than the front and only 1 front door key was awkward.

Rachel

A great property for a family to get together. We loved the spacious house and beautiful grounds with the added bonus of sauna and hot tub. Would highly reccomend.

A beautiful Property with easy access to everything we wanted to see. We were a group 6 adults and 5 children, they had a lots of fun, the garden is beautiful and spacious and the hot tub was a hit. A lovely cozy living room with all the facilities you could possibly need. Host were lovely enough to leave a complimentary basket of goodies. The property is very old with wooden detail, some of the flooring snagged our children so we had to out a plaster on it to make sure they were not hurt. The cat flap is left open, but it is big enough to allow a grown man access into the house this may be a Londoners perspective as we are not so trusting. House was left on heating 19 degrees so felt a little Cold in the early night but fine in the bedrooms. Other than that we had a lovely stay thank you. Jas

Elizabeth

We had a fabulous stay at the Red House. It was perfect for our large family! We loved all the outdoor spaces and there was plenty of space indoors too. The location is very convenient and we enjoyed lots of local walks. It was great to be able to walk into Lyme Regis without having to take the car. Wonderful!

Very disappointed. We were told the central heating in the building was not working the day before we travelled. Too late to make alternative arrangements. Owner offered 100 a night compensation until it was fixed. With little alternative we agreed and had two very cold days in the house. No compensation was subsequently paid. These rentals rely on mutual trust. You feel exploited when that trust is compromised.

Joseph

Had a really excellent time at Red House, definitely hoping to come back someday.

Amazing property. Large family group ranging from 25 to 61 years of age. Fantastic facilities. Excellent living spaces and very comfortable bedrooms. There wasn't anything we needed during our stay. There's usually a couple of items that you think it would be handy to have provided but not in this case. The only very very small comment from us and not to any detriment as we managed was more instructions on use of the aga and where to put the rubbish would have been helpful.

We found the house perfect for our family holiday. We had 4 generations of our family and they all enjoyed the facilities. One minor missing element was a high chair as we had a one year old with us.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your magnificent house. Our only suggestion is to add more information to the instruction book. We found the link to use aga didnt work. We had no idea where our bin was for dog poo. And more information on controlling hot water and central heating would be useful .

Great facilities and pleasant accommodation and everyone particularly the ... Great facilities and pleasant accommodation and everyone particularly the children enjoyed the stay The road from the property towards Lyme Regis is very narrow with no passing places for considerable distances which is a bit of a disadvantage

Lovely, large space for our family group celebrating my birthday. Our grandchildren cried at having to go home which confirms they loved the weekend here. Plenty of space and games for them to enjoy.

We had an amazing family holiday at the Red House. We made lots of memories, relaxed and enjoyed all the facilities it provided.The space was incredible and great value for money. The location was beautiful, quiet and the views were stunning. We did lots of walking and it was a nice walk down to the beach. The host was very accommodating and friendly, we will definitely be returning. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Lovely property with excellent facilities.

Thank you for providing us with a superb property and base for our family holiday, the house was more than adequately kitted out for the number of us and with so much much space and a great many things to enjoy and keep us busy. We loved the grass tennis court area it was great for football, tennis and the dog. The croquet set was put to good use and was also much fun. With the gym, hot tub and sauna to use too it was all we could have wanted and also had the bonus of lots of lovely walks into Lyme Regis to enjoy what was on offer in the Town. For us it was a perfect location and I think we will be returning in the future.

Matthew

Lovely property, really well equipped and a fantastic place to stay with our big multi generation family group from aged 1 to mid seventies and a dog! Great walks nearby, Lyme Regis was sunny and glorious to visit, but the huge outside BBQ, hot tub and huge lawn area to play lawn games on we brought some also made the house a great place to come back to and spend time.

Suzanne

We had a wonderful stay at The Red House for our family celebration. The house is very spacious, with a lovely outside area. Its all very well equipped and the owners were very helpful. Lovely walks to Lyme Regis and Charmouth from the property. We loved it all and would definitely recommend!

Rachel

Lovely old house with plenty of space. Some minor mainetenance needed but all in all a good stay

A wonderful stay in Red House, its a lovely location with a beautiful walk down into Lyme. The house is well equipped and the owner was easily contactable despite being in America and navigating time zones. We would definitely go back.

We felt so lucky to have this property for a long weekend. Its enormous and theyve thought of everything. The hot tub and sauna are fantastic. Great property for all ages and large groups, enough space to not feel on top of each other and room to share moments.
