Mount View

Enjoying an idyllic rural location in the picturesque village of Uplyme near Lyme Regis in the heart of Dorset, is this attractive single-storey bungalow, Mount View. Perfect for families, the bungalow rests in magnificent, enclosed gardens which are the ideal spot for spending time alfresco; children and pets can run around safely while adults can chill out and relax in peace so everyone is a winner! If the weather allows, then why not fire up the barbecue? Moving inside, the property is just as inviting with a light and airy sitting room welcoming guests with an extensive seating area and beautiful views from the large windows. The small but perfectly formed rustic-style kitchen is well equipped for everything you need to cook for the family and the dining area is a great space for gathering together and catching up with holiday news. You can imagine spending many a happy hour here enjoying quality time together with your holiday party. All that fresh air is bound to tire you out so when evening comes guests can choose from any of three fabulously presented bedrooms, a king-size, a double or a twin; all offer a calming sanctuary to lay your weary heads and to wake up to in the morning. After a hearty breakfast (fingers crossed outside!), it’s time to plan the day’s activities and there is so much to choose from it can be hard to know where to start. Uplyme itself is a beautifully tranquil village and forms part of the region’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty so there are loads of delightful, scenic walks to enjoy nearby. Lyme Regis is really close too and offers a wealth of amenities including shops, eateries, a museum, aquarium, beach, harbour and causeway. Jump in the car for a scenic drive to any one of a number of great family attractions including Pecorama, the Jurassic Fun Centre, Axe Valley Wildlife Park, Beer Quarry Caves, Dinosaurland Fossil Museum and Seaton Tramway. For an enjoyable family holiday to remember, Mount View delivers.

The beautiful countryside surrounding the village of Uplyme, on the borders of Devon and Dorset, is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, criss-crossed by bridleways and footpaths including the East Devon Way, and providing perfect country walks and superb views. The area was chosen by TV chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall for his River Cottage HQ at Park Farm, where you can treat yourself to a great meal. Just a short drive takes you to the stunning Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis. This delightful historic seaside town boasts a maze of narrow streets, with an interesting array of shops and cafes, whilst the sandy beach lends itself to great bathing and watersports, and the bustling little harbour offers regular fishing trips, or try your hand at fossil hunting. Within an easy drive is the quaint town of Axminster, or how about a ride on the Seaton Tramway? A glorious location for a varied and interesting holiday.
