Lyme Regis

For Centuries, travellers have sought the protection of Lyme Regis and its welcoming bay. They came by sea and deep country lanes. They came to trade and stayed for pleasure, lured as much by the town’s hospitality as by the fresh sea breezes and coastal views. Granted its royal charter in 1284 by Edward I, Lyme Regis acquired valuable trading privileges, a certain self-government, its own minor court and, until 1832, two members of the parliament.

Today’s visitors will discover along Lyme’s dramatic coastline an area of great natural beauty, criss-crossed by good rambling paths, and home to many fascinating kinds of flora, fauna and fossils. The town itself is a narrow tangle of streets and shops, tumbling down to the harbour – the famous Cobb, where fishing smacks and pleasure craft dance on the tide. Its unique setting and variety of sporting activities make Lyme Regis the perfect place to refresh mind and body.
