The property

Sir George Baker Cabin is a superb couples' retreat located in Uplyme, a village on the Devon/Dorset border, near the stunning World Heritage Jurassic Coast. Set within private grounds with a hot tub, decked terrace and garden area, and located in a peaceful woodland setting, this romantic hideaway is only a short drive from the popular seaside town of Lyme Regis. Approached by a long sweeping drive which takes you through the impressive grounds and electric gates to your allocated parking space. All on one level, this impressive, charred cedar-clad abode boasts a spacious open-plan living area with a vaulted ceiling and bi-fold doors which flood the room with light and make the most of the impressive views. The well-equipped kitchen provides everything needed to showcase your culinary skills with the decked terrace providing the ideal spot to enjoy a romantic meal or cosy evening drink. Steps lead from the terrace down to the pergola-covered hot tub, where you can sit back and relax amidst the bubbles under the stars. When it comes to night time, retreat to the king-size bedroom, which has been furnished with a real eye for detail and designed to provide a relaxing and restful break. The shower room with a waterfall shower is a delightful contemporary area in keeping with the rest of the property.
The property boasts a woodland backdrop backdrop of giant redwoods, specimen trees and mature planting, including azaleas and rhododendrons. A haven for wildlife, take a stroll stroll through the adjacent pinetum which link up with footpaths traversing this area, including the nearby nature reserve at Trinity Hill. The village of Uplyme is a short walk away, with its shop and friendly village pub. Follow the riverside walk to Lyme Regis with its iconic Cobb Harbour and an excellent range of independent shops and galleries. When it comes to eating out, you will be spoilt for choice with a fantastic selection of fine dining restaurants, pubs, and takeaways that serve great food, local beverages, and seafood. The sandy beach is popular with beachgoers and for water sports such as paddle boarding and kayaking, with the Lyme Rib Rides offering a more thrilling experience and a thrilling way to see the coast. The beaches in Dorset are a paradise with fossil hunters, and you can learn all about the area's rich geological history at the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre, located on the seafront, before trying to find your own ammonites hidden on the shorelines. The nearby cliff-top paths and South West Coastal footpath provide great walking for those wishing to explore the stunning coastline on foot and take in views towards Portland on a clear day. Other popular days out include the pretty fishing village of Beer with its quaint streets and art galleries or Seaton, where you can experience a nostalgic tram ride along the scenic River Axe estuary to Colyton.
