Follow in the footsteps of nineteenth-century fossil hunter Mary Anning with this glorious coastal apartment overlooking Lyme Regis and the Jurassic Coast. Spend your days scouring the cliffs for prehistoric treasures, browsing Lyme's tempting gift shops and eateries or strolling the world-famous Cobb Harbour – all within a few minutes' walk of the apartment. Enjoy a sunny barbecue on your private roof terrace or rustle up something tasty in the well-equipped kitchen, then settle back to enjoy spectacular sea views. If the Dorset weather isn't so kind to you, a squashy sofa (and smart TV) awaits in the open-plan living space. Oh, and look out for the host's thoughtfully curated artwork featuring the local area. Spend time getting to know the quirky charms of Lyme Regis or take a road trip and explore further along the West Dorset and East Devon coastline before returning to your welcoming home-from-home. A rare find indeed!
