Manor Ammonite Langmoor Lyme stands as a sophisticated retreat on the Jurassic Coast, combining generous living spaces, contemporary comforts, and a location that places guests within easy reach of golden beaches, fossil-rich cliffs, and the timeless charm of this historic Dorset harbour town. Accommodating up to ten guests, this refined property is designed for those who value space, style, and an authentic connection to one of Britain’s finest stretches of coastline.

Inside Manor Ammonite Langmoor Lyme

Step through the entrance hall and you are immediately greeted by the warm, inviting atmosphere that defines this property. The ground floor opens into a gracious sitting room where a working fireplace creates a focal point for evening gatherings, complemented by a Smart TV and Apple TV for quieter moments. The room’s proportions are generous, with ample seating arranged to encourage conversation while soft lighting and tasteful furnishings lend a sense of understated elegance.

The fully equipped kitchen is a true centrepiece of the home, designed for those who love to cook and entertain in equal measure. A premium DeLonghi coffee machine sits ready for morning rituals, while every utensil, pan, and appliance a keen cook could wish for lines the countertops and cupboards. A spacious dining area adjoins the kitchen, making it effortless to serve meals to the full group without feeling cramped. Beyond the kitchen, a practical utility and laundry room houses a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a dedicated boot room provides the ideal staging area for returning from coastal walks with sandy shoes and damp jackets.

Upstairs, Manor Ammonite Langmoor Lyme unfolds across five thoughtfully appointed bedrooms, each designed with comfort and restful sleep in mind. The layout offers flexibility for families and groups alike, with a variety of bed configurations suited to couples, solo travellers, and children. Four well-appointed bathrooms serve the bedrooms, ensuring morning routines flow smoothly even when the house is at full capacity. Soft linens, quality mattresses, and carefully considered storage make each room feel like a private sanctuary. The in-house spa and sauna facility elevates the experience further, offering guests a restorative retreat without ever needing to leave the property.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

While Manor Ammonite Langmoor Lyme is primarily a townhouse, its outdoor provisions have been carefully considered. Private parking is a notable advantage in a town where spaces are at a premium, and an electric car charger ensures eco-conscious travellers can recharge with ease. The property’s position within Lyme Regis means that the wider outdoors becomes an extension of your living space. Stroll from the front door to the seafront promenade, breathe in salt air from the iconic Cobb harbour wall, or pack a picnic and head to one of the nearby shingle and sand beaches. The Langmoor and Lister Gardens, a beautiful clifftop public garden, is moments away and offers panoramic views across Lyme Bay that are spectacular at sunset.

Exploring Lyme Regis and Beyond

Lyme Regis has earned its reputation as the “Pearl of Dorset” for good reason. The town’s compact centre is rich with independent shops, galleries, and cafés, while the famous Cobb harbour wall, immortalised in literature and film, is a must-walk experience. Fossil hunting along Monmouth Beach and Charmouth Beach (approximately 2 miles east) remains one of the area’s most iconic activities, and the Lyme Regis Museum on Bridge Street provides fascinating context to the area’s geological significance.

For dining, the town punches well above its weight. Hix Oyster & Fish House, perched above the Cobb, serves seasonal seafood with sweeping views. The Harbour Inn offers relaxed waterfront dining, and the Alexandra Hotel’s terrace is a wonderful spot for afternoon tea. The market town of Bridport, around 15 miles east, hosts a lively street market on Wednesdays and Saturdays and is home to further excellent restaurants and artisan food producers.

The wider Dorset countryside beckons for those keen to explore further afield. The rolling hills, ancient woodlands, and dramatic cliff paths of the Jurassic Coast provide walking and cycling opportunities of every level.

Perfect for Families and Groups

Manor Ammonite Langmoor Lyme is particularly well suited to multigenerational family holidays and group celebrations. The five-bedroom layout means grandparents, parents, and children each have their own private space, while the generous communal areas bring everyone together for meals, games, and fireside evenings. Children will delight in fossil hunting on the beach, crabbing off the harbour wall, and exploring rock pools at low tide. The Dinosaurland Fossil Museum and the Lyme Regis Marine Aquarium both provide rainy-day entertainment that captivates young minds. For teenagers, coasteering, kayaking, and paddleboarding are all available locally. The in-house spa and sauna offer adults a welcome moment of calm once the little ones are settled for the night.
