Lyme Regis

Lyme Regis

Lyme Regis is a true hidden gem in the heart of delightful Dorset, often overlooked in favour of its more glamorous neighbours, such as Bournemouth and Weymouth.

Why Book A Holiday At A Lyme Regis Caravan Park?

Known as the 'pearl of Dorset,' if you want a chilled-out holiday with some of the best beaches you'll find anywhere, traditional pubs and shops, natural landscapes, and fascinating history just waiting to be discovered, you've come to the right place.

Booking a caravan holiday to Lyme Regis promises a break full of happy memories, from days out at the beach and glorious views to delicious local cuisine and spectacular coastal walks, together with some fascinating attractions and a wealth of history.

The town itself is perfect for browsing, with a selection of great independent shops and high street stores, as well as a range of fantastic eateries, from fine-dining restaurants to fish and chips on the beach and just about everything in between. The harbour, or 'The Cobb' as it's known, is ideal for taking a stroll, admiring the beautiful coastal scenery, and stopping off for refreshments.

Places To Visit During A Caravan Holiday In Lyme Regis

There is so much culture in Lyme Regis that you'll be spoilt for choice. The Lyme Regis Museum, the Marine Theatre, the Marine Aquarium, and the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum are all well worth a visit. Lyme Regis is a well-known hub for fossil hunting and is the perfect spot to discover your own ancient fossils. Why not book a fossil tour and learn about the area's fascinating history and this intriguing pastime from the experts?

Lyme Regis is a fabulous base from which to explore the surrounding area, with more walks, hikes, and trails than you can shake a stick at. Try the Liberty Trail, a 28-mile coastal walk linking Somerset to Dorset, or the East Devon Way, a 40-mile walking route that takes in some spectacular views along the way. The well-known South West Coastal Path takes walkers right through Dorset along a 630-mile trail.

The beauty of the coastal path is there are walks for all ages and abilities, so whether you want a gentle stroll to take in some stunning scenery or you're a seasoned rambler who wants something a little more challenging, it's all here. With some beautiful wildlife and species of birds to be seen along the way, it's not hard to see why the region is so captivating to visitors.

A day at the beach is a no-brainer while you're on a caravan holiday in Lyme Regis. There are a wide variety of beaches on offer to visitors, so even in the height of summer, if you want to get away from the crowds, you should be able to find something a little quieter if you're willing to go off the beaten track.

The best beaches for fossil hunting include Monmouth, Church Cliff and East Cliff, which are also dog-friendly. Lyme Regis Beach is a lovely sandy beach, but it gets busy in the summer, so alternatives include Charmouth, Seatown, Ringstead Cove, Church Ope and Eypemouth.

If you want to try some non-beach days out, take a trip to nearby Tunnel Tree Tops, a great family day out where visitors can have a go at a challenging high ropes course and a hair-raising zip wire. Other popular family attractions include Foxdown Children's Farm and Axe Valley Wildlife Park. For something a little more grown-up, a ride on the Seaton Tramway is a must, as are destinations such as the Town Mill, Forde Abbey and Gardens, and Lambert's and Coney's castles.

A break in Lyme Regis has something for everyone, young or old, and after one trip to this captivating seaside town, you'll wonder why you haven't been before.
