We have recently discovered the finest B&B in the UK and I am somewhat reluctant to share it with you..............The Abbots House in Charmouth is deliciously charming and luxurious and the attention to detail to which owners Sheila and Nick have gone to would rival any five hotel we have stayed in, and that was also the view of our...

Really loved this little hotel, excellent accommodation well worth the money. Loved all the little extra touches such as the home made biscuits in the room, DVD library, games to borrow, to name just a few.

We stayed in the beautifully fitted Thomas Chard room and loved the characterful mix of restored original features with touches of luxurious modern day living.

Extra details such as homemade cookies, cafetiere coffee and fresh milk in the room... More

The quality of the accommodation at Abbots House was fantastic. It has a beautiful garden room where breakfast is served, lovely lounge with an honesty bar and our room was amazing. We stayed in the Mary Anning Room which was a great size and the bathroom was even bigger! The room was done to a very high quality and all... More

Abbots House certainly ticked all the boxes for us. Exceptional hosts, very comfortable, well appointed, imaginative and varied breakfasts, ample off-road private parking, quiet, very clean throughout, 5 minutes from beach and central for exploring West Dorset/East Devon. 10 minutes from Axminster/Lyme Regis. Sheila and Nick certainly deserve all the praise they get for going that extra mile.
