This property is located in Uplyme, a small village in East Devon that borders the coastal town of Lyme Regis and sits beside the River Lym.

Uplyme is an English village and civil parish in East Devon on the Devon‑Dorset border and the River Lym, adjacent to the Dorset coastal town of Lyme. The locality falls within the DT 7 postal district, indicating its proximity to the coastal area of Lyme Regis. Historically, the area hosted the Lyme Regis Open, a men’s and women’s grass court tennis tournament founded in 1886. The tournament was organised by the Lyme Regis Tennis Association and was staged annually until 1939, when it was discontinued due to World War II. It was revived in 1947 and continued until 1950 when it was abolished. The village’s setting beside a river and near a coastal town suggests a tranquil rural environment with access to the amenities of a nearby seaside community. The historical tennis tournament reflects a tradition of local sport and community gathering in the area.
