Both en-suites have roll top baths and there is a large walk in shower room for something quicker. The quality of this home continues outside; a large patio space is well-equipped for summer barbecues and alfresco dining, plus the inviting hot tub offers a fantastic way to end the evening.
Work up a sweat in the sauna, challenge each other to a game of ping-pong, all from the cellar and outdoor living room that has table football. The charming village of Uplyme is nearby, offering a traditional green and a great choice of pubs serving up delicious fare after a long day. From Uplyme, there is a riverside walk from the village into Lyme Regis with its family-friendly beaches, independent shops and galleries, along with must see attractions including the iconic Cobb Harbour and Aquarium.
