Stone & Sleeper Retaining Walls β Lyme Regis
Stone and timber sleeper retaining walls constructed in Lyme Regis to support the sloping garden and create clearly defined, usable planting areas.
What started as an ageing holiday chalet became a striking modern coastal home. This complete new build replaced the original structure with a contemporary timber frame property designed to maximise natural light, available space and comfortable seaside living.
The project began with the careful demolition and removal of the existing chalet, followed by extensive groundwork and the construction of new foundations. From there, our team built the new timber frame structure and managed each stage of the development through to the final external finishes.
The completed chalet features a modern standing seam roof, low-maintenance composite cladding, aluminium glazing and large sliding doors that help create a bright and open interior. A bespoke steel balcony was also installed to complete the front elevation and make the most of the surrounding views.

The result is a durable, modern holiday home that feels significantly brighter and more spacious than the original building. Every stage was carefully coordinated to create a clean contemporary finish suited to its coastal setting.

Replacing an old extension is often the best way to improve both the appearance and practicality of a property. For this project in Lyme Regis, we removed an ageing orangery and replaced it with a new garden room that complements the original building while creating a brighter, more usable living space.
