Well worth a visit. Free to enter and you can show yourself around. Friendly and knowledgeable volunteers. Very interesting.

April 2024

Loved this! Historic monument & enthusiastic volunteers. My 4 & 6 year olds loved watching the Water Wheel & cog mechanics when it was operating. So much so, we came back 3 days in a row to see the demonstration. Great history lesson!

April 2024

The cafe serves excellent toasted sandwiches and salad.

October 2023

Lovely little spot. Away from crowds

October 2023

Amazing place. Really helpful volunteers and lovely setting.

August 2023

Interesting place . Had breakfast twice at the town mill bakery , can really recommend .

May 2023

Excellent micro brewery

May 2023

Called in for breakfast on a wet Bank Holiday. Very busy but staff were friendly and attentive. A bit pricey but tasty, good quality food.

May 2023

Lovely place to sit outside with the dog on a sunny afternoon and have a lovely beer.

April 2023

Picturesque but not much open when we went in March.

March 2023

Lovely place for a drinkp

August 2022

Lovely area with a gallery, restaurants and a pub. Can thoroughly recommend the cider!

June 2022

Most enjoyable visit

June 2022

very interesting tour of working mill.The lyme regis brewery has fantastic beers and a lovely courtyard to sit in the sun to drink it

May 2022

Even better since its recent restoration- you can see inside the mill from a viewing platform and read the information board- no charge but donations encouraged. It's a beautiful building, brilliantly restored; we bought flour from the shop because we were inspired to encourage this little gem to thrive.

March 2022

The old Mill has been lovingly restored to working order, and volunteers are keen to talk about its history, working, and demonstrate it's working. A gem, must be seen. The enjoy a beer or cider across the yard at the Brewery!

September 2021

The brewery was excellent!

June 2021

We loved the Town Mill, particularly the Lyme Regis micro-brewery. Weather wasn't too kind but never spoiled our visits. Covid meant we had to sit at outside tables, sometimes in the rain, however staff were always willing to bring our orders to us as we stood with umbrellas or managed to get a table with cover. Great hosts and great fun.

May 2021

It's a lovely collection of buildings and artisan businesses, a great area to while away time, get inspired and spend money locally! The people at the mill are super-keen and we enjoyed the whole place a lot.

October 2020

A great attraction to visit and learn about milling of grain into flour. A guided tour available and only a donation suggested. Great for children and adults alike. Guide very knowledgeable.

November 2019

Well worth a visit for young and old. Well informed volunteers provide the tour and make it so interesting. No fee is charged but contributions are welcomed and help to keep it open so please give generously.

July 2019

Well worth a visit. The "miller" gave a very informative tour Which included some history of Lyme regis as well as explaining the workings of the mill.

October 2018

The Town Mill is a great attraction, the tour guided by a volunteer miller was excellent and informative.(suggest checking the tour times as they did not run every day) . Opportunities for photographs during the tour were limited because of space but I returned a couple of days later and was able to wander around and take as many as I wanted , I also got to talk to another miller. All for a donation entry fee! The small shop sold their flour and books about the mill. ( I think 2 other reviews were talking about the Courtyard Cafe)

October 2018

Took ages to serve us and the table service in general was poor. Food was good but let down by indifferent service.

July 2018

Well worth a visit as the central feature in a really pleasant old town walk behind the main street. Easier when you start at the top and go down through the twists and turns.

June 2018

Lovely little museum, loads of interesting displays and information, great for families.

April 2024

Lots of interesting fossils and dinosaurs on view.

October 2023

So many fossils could fo with an upgrade but if you're interested its work popping in

October 2023

Interesting displays, especially the time gallery upstairs. We were unfortunate to go when there was a group of students, so couldn't get to all rooms, but gent on the door did warn us.

March 2023

Worth a visit and we thought it was good value. Loads of things to see and read but you have got to be into fossils and geology. Some great set ups with models, and all explained. There were some very young children in there as we walked around and they seem to love it, as the models were huge for them. They were barely walking but seem to know many of the dinosaur names. The person who welcomed us was really friendly and was happy to advice on good places to hunt for fossils. It needs a bit of a dust in places, as do most museums.

June 2022

We've visited here several times, there's a good mix of info for all age ranges, so children and adults are kept busy. Definitely worth a visit if dinosaurs and fossils are your thing. It's a bit cramped inside, but that has never spoiled our visit.

March 2022

Steve Davies has created a unique and astonishing museum on two spacious floors within the old Baptist Chapel that Mary Anning frequented. The geology and wide range of fossils are explained and exhibited. Steve has also purchased and exhibits the truly remarkable collections of several other Lyme "rock hunters", and in a very nice touch uses short biographical notes to explain their contributions. Fossil and history paradise. Don's miss it!!!

September 2021

Really good morning here, something for all ages, good timelines and lovely dinosaurs to hold for children. Very good.

April 2018

Great game of mini golf here but does get very busy!

August 2023

Had a game here one evening. Lovely views over the bay .

July 2017

Great choice of ales including house bitter at £3.75 a pint.

October 2023

Walked in on spec, booked a meal for an hour later Great food and brilliant service

July 2023

Best pub in Lyme. Great pub grub, great beer and relaxing friendly vibe.

June 2023

Busy but friendly bar, both staff and customers, and good choice of real ales!

May 2023

Had a really nice meal here one evening recently. Service and food very good. However, it was a pity that no desserts or coffee seemed to be available which would have rounded off a very pleasant visit.

July 2022

Great friendly pub, excellent food, beer and value for money

July 2022

Great food, some of the best we had all week. Don't be put off by the looks, its a great place for food. The main bar is to the right as you go in and plenty of locals seemed to be enjoying the many beers on offer. The main dining is left as you go in. We really enjoyed the food and you need to check out the specials, which we nearly missed. The service was great and the staff welcoming. It gets busy so go early and book a table.

June 2022

made to feel welcome food and service very good

May 2022

Sunday lunch a must Best we had in a while

October 2021

Lovely Sunday roast which was very reasonably priced. The meat was cooked perfectly an the size of the portions was huge! Recommend booking in advance.

October 2021

A young couple from our party very much enjoyed an evening meal and the walk home was pleasant.

September 2021

Lovely pub food and friendly staff

August 2021

We visited in mid October for a Sunday lunch - magnificent and so much on the plate I was full for the rest of the day!

October 2020

Even though it was during the school holidays it was a very limited menu with only one pudding! The food we had was good and the pub has a warm friendly atmosphere.

November 2019

had a lovely fish pie. Nice traditional pub.

June 2019

No food to speak of. Just a few filled rolls on the counter. A good local for beer.

September 2018

Exceptional quality and amount of food portions. We tried most of the offerings as there were a lot of us and can honestly say all meals were excellent value, well presented and good portions.

July 2018

Great pub food with good choice of beers and cider, good atmosphere.

July 2017

Hotel with stunning grounds overlooking Lyme Bay, brilliant staff and top-notch food. Went there for the set lunch and it was faultless (the afternoon teas looked immense as well but they are the same price as the two-course lunch, so take your pick!).

July 2021

Wonderful Sunday lunch. Friendly, helpful staff and food great. Very pleasant atmosphere. Will certainly go back there when we come back to Lyme Regis.

June 2021

Very friendly people, good food. We left when it was raining, and they took us to our appartement for free. Just wunderfull.

May 2018

We weren’t expecting such a nice lunch from a comfortable hotel bar/ restaurant. “Home made” food to a good standard. Service was a little inconsistent.

November 2023

Has changed ownership since we last went. Food was lovely, staff very friendly. Our favourite place to eat during our recent holiday.

July 2022

Friendly comfortable hotel with charming staff. Good food.

January 2020

Very nice place to eat and drink. Separate lounge to sit and relax in. Very friendly.

October 2019

Excellent food and service

June 2019

Nice comfortable hotel and bar with good food.

April 2019

Al la carte menu and wines are fantastic value in a truly wonderful setting. A real hidden gem in Lyme Regis with fantastic food cooked to perfection.

June 2018

We were very disappointed that the Barman in Royal Lion was not at all friendly to us at all when we popped in for a drink during our long weekend in Lyme Regis. We asked a simple question about the hotel terrace and he answered us very sternly. We did not stay for another drink after this nor a meal, which we had originally intended to do. It should be noted that we stayed at this hotel a few years ago over Easter and really enjoyed and had every intention of booking another stay. Unfortunately our recent experience has put us off staying at the Hotel in the future.

July 2017

Nice selection of local real ales and delicious fish and chips. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

May 2017

We had a meal at the hotel of pork chop and vegetables which was cooked really well and tasted good!

April 2017

Great place to eat, interesting and delicious food and a buzzy atmosphere.

April 2024

Great atmosphere and an ever changing menu based on local produce, served with passion by a top team. Great wine list and cocktails. Just a stone's throw from the Seafoal too!

August 2022

Nice clean beach with plenty of clean WCs and cafes. The sandy bit at the harbour is good for dogs to run around (out of season) and kids to dig in.

April 2024

Nice beach but very busy and did not like the swooping seagulls!

August 2023

Wonderful location and so much to do, we didn't use our car once for a week, unheard of!! The parking in the town not good but for a town of that age, it was adequate and the other car parks further out were very good.

May 2022

Booked a beach hut from Town Council! Great fun and provided welcome shade on v hot day! Appreciated the two chairs provided but would have liked a small table for food / coffee

September 2021

Great beach on the sandy side was really busy and made use of the boat hire on the beach which was great fun, seagulls are a real issue when it comes to food and we ate ours in our tent after my daughter lost a sandwich to one right out of her mouth.

August 2021

We loved the seafront and that in October it was full of people. We liked the beach bit, seeing families enjoying the sand, and it was great to see open loos, nice ice-cream and lots of different places to eat and drink.

October 2020

We had a lovely dog walk along the beach, very pleasant.

September 2018

A lovely family friendly beach. Pebbled at one end and sandy at the other. Plenty of eateries and ice cream places. A good place for fossil hunting.

August 2018

Excellent area and beach although extremely busy if the sun makes an appearance. I go to Lyme Regis whilst dogs are allowed on the beach (I do use it with my dog) and would like to see more policing re dogs off leads.

April 2017

Plenty of parking with a moderate walk down many steps to the beach. Worth the walk though with plenty of fossils around if your prepared to look.

September 2023

Lovely beach but spoilt by the amount of broken bits of glass and rusty metal components that have fallen from the cliff (believe there was some form of rubbish dump at the top of the cliff many years ago) - not a problem for most people but was worried about our dog getting injured.

May 2023

A lovely stretch of beach with rock pools and a chance to find fossils. Get there as the tide is going out and get there early. Take provisions as it is just a beach, of shingle and sand, there are some rocks to clamber over and rock pools to explore. One of our favourite beaches in the UK.

June 2022

Love the stroll along the Cobb beach and area so clean plenty of places to eat and drink. The locals are so warm and welcoming, can’t beat Lyme regis

November 2021

Perfect sandy beach for everyone. Loved the Marine Parade with food and drink and ice creams.

October 2021

excellent, safe beach

September 2021

Always raked and cleaned. Pretty safe, excellent lifeguards. Restaurants and cafes need to be open later. Toilets very clean but not enough of them so long queues. Watch out for seagulls stealing food from your hands!

August 2021

Lovely harbour and great places to grab a bite to eat. But it is extremely busy. Every inch of the small patch of sand by the cobb was taken up but beach shelters, feet deck chairs etc. If your kids are not fussed about sand avoid the area if you want quite and relaxing. The other side of the cobb is quite and so are the toilets (which are clean)

August 2021

We walked here from Seaton along the muddy coastal path and Lyme Regis is lovely . We took a boat out from the cob .

July 2021

The cob was lovely to walk on and all you needed was near by

September 2020

Lovely to see this in sunshine for the first time in several visits. Worth going early to see it uncrowded.

June 2018

A very lovely beach if you like stones! But great when the tide is right out and you can fossil hunting.

October 2023

My dog Luna and I really enjoy walking and playing ball along the beach keeping eyes down to see if we can find a fossil!!! very clean and looked after Love it!!!

June 2022

Stunning, quiet and picture perfect ideal place to relax and paint ?

November 2021

Stayed here in The Little Sea House right on the beach. Amazing sunrises. Beautiful and peaceful but tricky to walk on in places.

October 2021

We had a lovely holiday staying in the little sea house. Perfect location on the beach. Was very warm & cosy inside. Was generally clean on arrival but think it could do a intensive deep clean occasionally to clean racks /hard to reach places ( plug holes) but this did not effect our stay ( I’m just bit OCD with cleaning) I would recommend this to anyone wanting a relaxing tranquil break. Also the out hours staff from toadhall cottages were very helpful. Would book again

May 2021

Just beautiful

September 2020

Great for fossil hunting and dog friendly!

September 2017

Charmouth Beach is just wonderful, lovely walks with no cars or road noise. Heaven!

April 2024

Walking this beach from Lyme Regis

October 2023

Great beach, Its busy by the shops but plenty of places to walk to find space away from others. The toilets are bad, so with a few wipes and wash you hands after. Get there early for parking. It is sand, shingle and rock pools, so great for a non commercialised beach day. Follow the tide out if you are fossil hunting but best to have a guided tour first from the museum so you know what you are looking for. One of our favourite sea sides in Britain.

June 2022

This is a beautiful area. Gets very busy and there are about four car parks and on street parking. The museum was very fascinating. Toilet queue was horrendous. This is a great area for inflatables as you can go down the stream if you want instead of the sea. There is also a large grass bank to picnic on instead of the beach cobbles.

August 2021

Great beach if but a bit stony where we went, good facilities for food and drinks and no where near as many seagulls as Lyme Regis.

August 2021

Lovely quaint beach.

May 2019

Lovely spot to sit, relax and look for fossils.

October 2018
