Not obvious to navigate to on first arrival, but that's because you get to it from a beachside access road. Once dumping your stuff, there's a lockup garage 5 mins walk away down a quiet backstreet. Hotel was very clean & well maintained. reception was friendly, helpful & low-key. Fabulous position from seaview rooms:- to the Cobb (right) & Golden... More

Great location on the seafront with fantastic view of The Cobb but overpriced! 'Continental' breakfast with no cheeses or cold meats, just pastries and toast. Being asked for £7 upon checkout to park in the lock-up a 10 minute walk away was not expected and for £170 a night (out of season!) you would think would be included!

We stopped for 2 night (170£/night) at the Bay Leaf Hotel. No greeting on arrival, we had to find the car parking allocation somewhere in the village by using a bad hand made map. Back at the hotel " sorry we stop serving the dinner at 9:30 pm ".We stated at the booking time (by phone)we would like a room... More

We stopped at the Bay Leaf restaurant after a day walking along the beach. The staff were very friendly and the food was outstanding. I had the mussels ( large portion ), the best i'd eaten for a long time. They were beautifuly cooked with wild boar bacon and a wonderful creamy sauce. well worth the money. My husband had... More

My two kids and I came all the way from Ottawa, Canada, to stay at the Bay with my mother, who is from Lyme. Our suite was out of action - the heating broke - but we were more than compensated by getting the suite with the bay window overlooking the Cobb. My kids just sat in the window and... More

We stayed one night in Suite 7. All very good. Enjoyed the breakfast - there was enough bread included to make sandwiches for our lunchtime walk :). We forgot to ask for the Wifi password and when we remembered the reception was closed and no-one in the restaurant could help - so make sure you get it at check-in. Unfortunately,... More

Two nights booked in suite Room no. 6 Great apartment, room sizes very good, everthing needed for self catering break. Spotless clean, bed very comfortable, warm rooms too. Deliverered to our door continental breakfast and also little goodies and nibbles in the fridge, which was a nice touch. Out of season this time of year, but you could still go... More

We stayed at the Bay Hotel last weekend and it was lovely. The room was spacious, with its own TV, armchairs, and kitchen area. The staff were helpful and friendly, and they kept our fruit bowls and coffee trays well stocked for the duration of our stay. Also breakfast was great: toasts and Danish pastries.

We have now stayed at The Bay Hotel twice. Fantastic location, very friendly service and what a view!! We are a family with 4 children and always love returning to The Bay Hotel. The food in the restaurant is also a big hit - so delicious, especially the mussels.
