How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.

- Wider context: The property has 14 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 8.7/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: August 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.

Pet-friendly summary
2 Kersbrook Gardens is a homely, well-equipped holiday house in Lyme Regis, with views over the town from the top floor and the rare bonus of off-street parking, which is at a premium this close to the seafront. As a whole-house rental there are no corridors or shared spaces to negotiate, so it gives dogs and owners a private, settled base within easy reach of the beach and the Jurassic Coast.
The garden is enclosed, laid out with gravel and a patio and furnished for sitting out, which is the detail most dog owners want confirmed before booking a coastal house. One dog can stay.
The restriction to plan around is that dogs are welcome on the ground floor but not upstairs, and that has caught guests out on arrival rather than being obvious at the point of booking. It suits owners happy for their dog to settle downstairs rather than follow them around the house, and it is worth raising with the owner when you book so there are no surprises. Reaching the owner mid-stay has proved slower than ideal, so it also pays to sort out any questions about the house before you travel.
Beyond that, the impression from dog owners is of a comfortable, genuinely dog-welcoming house in a strong spot, with a welcome pack on arrival and parking that takes the stress out of a Lyme Regis visit. Just one guest travelling with a dog has reviewed the house so far, so the 4.4/5 paw rating reflects a promising but limited record rather than a long track record.
2 Kersbrook Gardens suits dog owners who want a comfortable, well-equipped Lyme Regis base with parking and an enclosed garden, and who are content for their dog to stay on the ground floor.
