Lyme Regis Pitthouse
Lyme Regis, in West Dorset, is in a beautiful location overlooking Lyme Bay on the Channel coast, and is known fondly as the Pearl of Dorset. Apart from the natural attractions along this timeless coastline, the town is positively buzzing with activity throughout the year. It hosts a Fossil Festival, Jazz Festival and Life Boat Week, and there’s also an annual carnival. Lyme Regis is especially good for family holidays, as there is loads of entertainment for the kids, including a skate park and play park, and there are always the scenic coastal walks to enjoy together. The waters are safe and clean thanks to the town’s award-winning protection scheme for the local environment.
Lyme Regis also has numerous small cafés, tea-houses and restaurants, as well as good shops. Parking in Lyme Regis is in high demand, especially in the summer. So avoid the crowds and leave your car in the NCP Lyme Regis car park at Pitthouse before you go off exploring.

Lyme Regis Museum Parking
Lyme Regis Museum is at the heart of this lovely town, whose Jurassic coastline has yielded up some famous fossils over the years.

Marine Parade Parking
Lyme Regis is almost synonymous with its Marine Parade, and every visitor ends up on it at some point. Starting at Gun Cliff, the Marine Parade runs past the Bay Hotel and the arcade, so you get great views out to see and inland to the town, as well as a lungful of bracing ozone.
