Our Story
Old Dorset House

Dorset House has welcomed people through its doors for two centuries. The house itself dates back to the early 19th century, a Grade II-listed Georgian gem in the heart of Lyme Regis overlooking the Jurassic Coast. Over the years, Dorset House has served as an MP's headquarters, a hotel, a school, an army barracks, a guesthouse, and, eventually, an award-winning boutique bed and breakfast, ready to welcome you and yours.

Our Coast
Pathways

Relax, unwind, and benefit from the great outdoors and local food scene. The Southwest coast is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts with amazing walks, water activities, fossil hunting, and special places to relax, unwind, and enjoy the view. As your gateway to the Jurassic Coast, Lyme Regis has fantastic restaurants, maker workshops, art galleries, theatre, music and independent shops for you to explore throughout the year.
