Autumn & winter Dorset Two Night Escape, and three nights for the price of two See offers
Enjoy a relaxing break on the coast...
Nestled on the hillside overlooking Lyme Bay, and within a two-minute walk from the centre of the beautiful historic town of Lyme Regis, our small coastal boutique hideaway offers a tranquil oasis set in stunning gardens with breathtaking sea views and hidden places to sit and relax.
This former Georgian Dower House is an independent, family-owned, 25-bedroom hotel that has been providing a home away from home for over 125 years, and in that time, we’ve worked tirelessly to uphold long-standing traditions of housekeeping and true hospitality.
We also offer two self-catering apartments for families and longer stays.
