FAQs

Headland Hideaway –

Parking space for 2 cars at the property.

Austen’s Garret –

Very few properties in the centre of Lyme Regis benefit from immediate parking and we are located by the seafront.

We recommend the NCP Pitthouse CarPark DT7 3QF (located to the right of Tesco on Broad Street) which is a 1-minute walk away. Parking costs: £12.95 per day. It is worth downloading the NCP Parking app in advance.

Box Cottage (Charmouth) -

Free parking on the road 1 minutes walk up or down from the cottage.

All other properties –

You can park at the bottom of Hill Road (virtually next to the property) by the river (DT7 3PD) to drop off your things before parking your car.

We recommend Woodmead Car Park (DT7 3PG), which is located a 2-minute walk away.

Parking costs: Three-day ticket - £45.00

Weekly ticket - £80.00 with the ‘JustPark App (car park number 7622).

It has two electric charging points too.

Train from London (Waterloo) to Axminster take 2 hours 42 minutes and is across gorgeous countryside.

Buses leave Axminster when the trains arrive and drop off at Co-op in Lyme Regis, a few minutes walk from all the properties (except Headland Hideaway 20 mins walk).

Please note the last bus leaves at 5pm.
