Perfectly situated on the UNESCO Jurassic Dorset and East Devon main coastal road and 3 miles either way between Lyme Regis and Seaton, you can explore far and wide.
With a bus stop right outside it is great place for walkers to tick off a part of the coastal path or explore towns, villages and even a Cities, without having to get behind a steering wheel. There is a summer park & ride at Lyme Regis to overcome those busy summer scrambles for a parking space. It’s great for keen cyclists to challenge themselves on the undulating Devon roads too.
A visit to Lyme Regis is a must, with its family-friendly beach, charming harbour, interesting shops, popular Theatre, fascinating aquarium and museums galore!
In nearby Seaton, the mile-long pebble beach is perfect for water sports like kayaking and paddleboarding. Fishing on the shore or looking for crabs by the harbour is great fun too.
The Seaton Wetlands Centre provides peaceful walks through marshland and reedbeds, with accessible trails and bird hides that make it a haven for nature lovers.
Sidmouth folk festival is a go to for all traditional music and dance lovers too.
All fossil hunters will enjoy exploring Charmouth, a beach that often reveals ancient treasures and a Jurassic memento to take home.
The quaint village of Beer enchants visitors with its picturesque beach, framed by dramatic white limestone cliffs. Whilst the quarry will give you a chance to see bats roosting in a strange subterranean world.
For a unique holiday experience serious foodies can go on a cooking course nearby at Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River House HQ. Independent shop lovers can visit Bridport and its twice weekly markets. Antiques magpies will love St Michaels Trading Estate as well as its monthly vintage market. Artists can go to events such as seaweed pressing workshops at Molesworth and Bird in the Town Mill in Lyme Regis and Talisman workshops in Bridport.
Summer, Autumn, Winter or Spring whether you're strolling along the coast seeking adventure, soaking up the sea views and countryside tranquillity, paddling in the shallows, or simply just want a cosy place to relax and just be. A stay at 10 Pinewood promises to be a place to make memories in one of the South West’s most scenic and welcoming locations. It’s a place of coastal charm and ancient history. We look forward to welcoming you.
The delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis has much to offer its visitors, boasting a maze of narrow streets filled with craft and antique shops, galleries and cafes. Take a stroll along the world-famous Cobb causeway overlooking the ancient harbour, where fishing trips can be enjoyed, or try your hand at fossil hunting in the area.

Comfortable & in a very peaceful location. My only complaint really is that the window would not open at all in the bedroom which made it a bit stuffy at night. Overall we would definitely stay there again as it was peaceful & in a good location for Lyme Regis.

An extra step would be useful for the less agile guests. All other aspects of the property were most satisfactory.
