Situation and food both e cells t. Arrived around six, cold and damp, obviously came as a big surprise to the bar staff. Several room keys on the board, told them - to my husband’s embarrassment - we’d paid for the better bedroom on the booking website. There was no guarantee of a sea view in doing this, but we were hoping. After a phone call we were taken to a pleasant room overlooking a side street, and the bins. Neither the radiator in our bedroom or in the bathroom worked. Scrambled under the covers to get warm, rested for a while before walking round the town. Asked a member of the bar staff if we could have the radiator in the bedroom turned on. She said she’d look into it. Pub crammed with happy diners, food looked great, decided we’d eat there the following evening. Came back to a cold bedroom. Breakfast perfect, hot, freshly cooked, high quality produce. Out for the day, intending to return for dinner, knowing last food orders taken at 9. A couple arrived 8.30 ish and were told food service was over. We had a drink instead. Pub packed up around us as diners left, returned to the cold bedroom, had a bath to warm up.

Lovely stay with really friendly staff.
We booked this hotel using clubcard vouchers, it was handy to find a place to stay in the centre of Lyme Regis which allowed dogs to stay. The location was brilliant and we loved being able to park the car up the road and leave it there so we could enjoy the beautiful town. The absolutely best thing about our stay was the service as everyone was so friendly, welcoming and couldn't be more helpful. The breakfast was wonderful, very tasty with generous portions. The way they cooked the tomatoes especially was delicious! We loved having a view of the harbour while we ate. The room was nice - very clean and attractive. We slept well. I liked how there was enough tea and milk for more than one drink each. I would suggest the bathroom needs a modern update at some point, plus a shelf for your toiletries and it would be lovely to have clean windows as it's not a bad view from room 1. It was great that the windows opened for fresh air. We'll definitely come back again.

Very friendly welcome - most convenient for other event of our visit. Room was cold on arrival, but warmed by the time we returned. Evening food adequate, but made up for by very friendly staff.

We had a great stay at The Cobb Arms, the staff were really welcoming and helpful. They were obviously in the midst of decorating some of the hall areas, so they were a bit untidy for good reasons. The bed was very comfortable and the bottled water was a nice touch. Just to be a bit pedantic - the secondary glazing doesn't fit in the bedroom or the bathroom so the curtains/blind wave in the wind! The room was cold on our first day so had to request heating be put on. The day we left there was no heating at all which was invigorating in November! I had scallops in the restaurant which were fantastic - and the breakfasts were delicious. The chef deserves a big shiny gold star!!!

Two night November stay with our dog
We stayed at the Cobb Arms with our dog for a couple of nights in November. The things we really liked: the staff were very friendly and helpful; the room was clean and comfortable; the beer (Palmers) was excellent; the food in the evening was good and definitely a cut above normal pub grub; the breakfasts were generous and the vegetarian breakfast we had on our second morning was delicious; our dog was made welcome; the pub was well situated being right by the Cobb itself. The things we liked less: there's no on site parking so we parked in a large pay and display car park about 10 minutes walk away up a pretty steep hill (we didn't mind the hill but it definitely wouldn't suit everyone), we paid £9 a day for this, which would be more expensive in the summer months; breakfast is served between 9 and 10, which is too late if you are planning an early start for a day's walking. Apart from these couple of negatives we really enjoyed our stay.

Cobb stay
Stayed just one night for a mini break. Great spot by the Cobb. Above a pub but didn’t have any issues with noise at all. A few stairs to rooms but again no problem. Very comfy bed.Great breakfast served by a very attentive and friendly young man called Adam. Will happily stay again.

Pros:Nice room, lovely friendly staff and a fantastic breakfast. Bar’s quirky and different really liked it. Hallway and stairs under renovation but looking good. Convenient location right on waters edge Cons: No Wi-Fi, no car park and council car park charges aren’t cheap although free after 9pm in summer and after 6pm in winter. Very nearly got a ticket

The staff work really hard including the young man and woman but everyone seemed frazzled so not really a relaxing environment but obviously they are doing their best and were polite and professional. The food was great, dinner and breakfast. The room was not so great, the bed was not comfortable for 2 people as one side was sloped and the toilet was challenging to flush. The remote was missing but we didn't want to go down and trouble very busy staff.

Beautiful but a little tired
We have stayed here 5 times now but sadly the place is looking very tired and worn. Bed linen and towels are spotless but painting and carpets desperately need cleaning and refurbishing . Area to reach bedrooms behind kitchen are off putting as raw food is stacked and leads to outside and needs a good clean, hope this can be rectified Staff are lovely and helpful and restaurant and rooms are welcoming Food is good and place is really handy for beach and amenities Really hope this gets refurbished soon as it’s been a great place to stay otherwise may have to look elsewhere for next stay which we would rather not have to do

A lovely friendly Inn where we were welcomed warmly. Super bedrooms, we liked the decor- yellow/ gold in my Mum's room and silver/ pink in ours. The only problem we found was the long steep staircase up to the bedrooms which my Mum, aged 92, struggled to access. She needed a great amount of help as there were so many stairs together in one flight. We understand there isn't probably room for a lift in this older building, but this would have an impact on us visitng again with Mum or with people with similar levels of mobility. Nevertheless we enjoyed our stay and are grateful that the kind gentleman on duty on Friday night let us stay to play cards in the bar well beyond bar closing time!
