We have just returned from a visit to my Aunt who lives in Teignmouth. We stayed here and were delighted with the room and the service we received from Nikki and Ian. The room was a large one with a four poster bed and a lovely bathroom with a shower over the bath. Everything about our stay was great and thank you Nikki and Ian for helping to make our holiday so enjoyable. We would thoroughly recommend Lyme Bay House.

Requested a single room on the Monday when I phoned , as was only staying one night, (came down from the West Midlands to surprise my sister-in-law and husband on their 60th diamond wedding anniversary), I was given a king size superior bed, charged £85, no breakfast given at this time of year, thought this was a bit steep in price as it is not a hotel, silly me did not ask the price before accepting the booking!! Better staying at the lovely Blenheim hotel on the corner, but they are closed atm for renovations.

What a lovely find in somewhere to stay and not too far from the Railway station if coming by train and there is parking if by car. We were warmly welcomed by Niki and Ian who showed us to the room which was beautifully clean and tidy with a great view out to sea which is always a bonus. Niki was very lively at breakfast which was lovely and the full English certainly set you up for the day. We will certainly be staying here again when visiting Dawlish. Philip & Lorraine.

I will make it simple so you don’t have to waste your time and read the rest. We would rate you A1. The location is perfect for being close to the centre of Dawlish. Lyme Bay House is easy to find and our room had a great view of the sea. Ian and Nikki were very welcoming and easy to communicate with. The room we took was No. 1, which was ideal for us. The bed was extremely comfortable and the en-suite was excellent. The whole reception area and dining areas were spotless which does them credit as this now the end of the summer season. Nikki’s breakfasts were outstanding, the fruit salad was just great as was her home made bread which superb as toast. Full English breakfast is highly recommended. We left a day early due to the weather changing for the worst and the weather forecast indicated that the rains would be torrential for a considerable time and there was a risk of localised flooding. This would not have affected our stay but it would limit what we could do. To finish with, thank you Ian and Nikki it was nice meeting you and stating at Lyme Bay House. Hopefully we shall return in the future. Chris & Sandra.
