1 Coram Tower

A grade II listed building originally built by sea captain Thomas Coram contains 1 Coram Tower, a ground-floor apartment for four at the top of Pound Street in Lyme Regis. Pound Street is one of the hills in the town, which is worth knowing before you arrive with luggage. A welcome hamper is waiting inside.

The sitting/dining room has huge windows, white leather sofas, a glass dining table and a window bench. The kitchen is contemporary and has an electric oven and hob, a microwave, a fridge, a freezer, a washer/dryer and a dishwasher. The main bedroom has a super-king-size bed, and the second is a twin with storage. A shower room with a basin and WC serves both. Heating is electric, and fuel, power, linen and towels are covered by the rent.

A lawned communal garden is outside. One car has an allocated off-road space, and electric car charging points are at Holmbush car park. Both the shop and the pub are 0.2 miles from the apartment.

Smoking and pets are both ruled out. The apartment suits a family with two children, or two couples, who want both bedrooms on one level and a shower rather than a bath. Allow for the gradient of Pound Street when you walk back.
