Parking in Lyme Regis

Free Parking In Lyme Regis

With around 1,300 parking spaces for a town with a population of just over 3,500 you would think parking in the town would be a simple affair. It is not. 

Those that live on the fringes avoid going in to the town in the summer or, if they really want to go, get in very early in order to find a space. 

Lyme Regis is a magnet for tourists and as such every parking space is often gone by 11 a.m. The town positively heaves in the summer. 

If you want to visit get in early.

Car Parking gets very expensive after a stay of 3 hours.

The car parks are listed below broadly in order of size, use the menu at the head of each page to get around the site. 


Holmbush Car Park

Holmbush Car Park
This car park is easily found being on the main A3052 road that runs through Lyme Regis.

As you enter Lyme Regis from the west on the A3052 and start to descent the hill you will see a rather grand building that looks like a tower with a pitched roof. (Coram Tower) . The entrance to the car park is just after the tower on the opposite side of the road.

If you are coming from Uplyme then at the top of the High Street as you enter Lyme Regis turn sharp right where the shops start in earnest and then look for the car park on the left near the tower. Be warned it is expensive, Charmouth Road is cheaper

Charmouth Road Car Park

Charmouth Road Car Park
This car park is the first one you come to when heading in to the town from the East, which, it could be said is the best way in to town anyway. 

Leave the A35 at the large roundabout where is meets the A3052 near Charmouth. Take the A3052 towards Lyme Regis (and not towards Charmouth) where this road eventually becomes Charmouth Road.

Probably the best value car park in Lyme Regis, but remember Lyme Regis is an expensive place to park!

Monmouth Beach Car Park

Monmouth Beach Car Park
This car park is found by taking the turning down Cobb Road off the main A3052 road that runs through Lyme Regis. This turning is next to Holmbush Car Park and easily missed. As you enter Lyme Regis from the west on the A3052 and start to descent the hill you will see a rather grand building that looks like a tower with a pitched roof. (Coram Tower) . The entrance to Holmbush Car Park may be seen on the right, and Cobb Road is just after it.

If you are coming from Uplyme then at the top of the High Street as you enter Lyme Regis turn sharp right where the shops start in earnest and then look for the car park on the left near the tower and thus the turning to Cobb Road just before it.

Woodmead Car Park

Woodmean Car Park
This car park is tucked away down some side streets towards the west of the town centre. On a busy day it is quite a good place to try as it is a little bit tucked away and not well signed.

As you enter Lyme Regis from the west on the A3052 at the top of the "High Street" where the shops start turn sharp left before entering the main high street. The after about 150 yards turn right. The car park may be found on the left after around 200 yards.

Pitt House NCP Car Park

Pitt House NCP Car Park
This car park just off the high street in the centre of Lyme Regis. 

As you enter Lyme Regis from the west on the A3052 keep heading in to the town and down the high street. As you start to descend look for the Co-Op on the left which is then closely followed by Tesco. The road down to the car park is just after Tesco and runs down the side of the building.

If you are coming from Uplyme then at the top of the High Street as you enter Lyme Regis turn left down the high street. As you start to descend look for the Co-Op on the left which is then closely followed by Tesco. The road down to the car park is just after Tesco and runs down the side of the building.

Broad Street Car Park

Broad Street Car Park
This car park is right in the heart of the town near the bottom of the main high street and the entrance is next to the traffic lights, on unsurprisingly, Broad Street (A3052).

As you enter Lyme Regis from the west on the A3052 go down the hill and through all the shops and the entrance can be seen to the left just as the Rock Point Inn comes in to view ahead. There is a box junction on the road outside the entrance to the car park.

Coming from the east drop down in to the town and go through the traffic lights. Soon after the lights you will pass on your right some public toilets and then, just as you begin to climb the hill, the car park entrance may be seen on your right.

Cobb Gate Car Park

Cobb Gate Car Park
This car park is right in the heart of the town near the bottom of the main high street and new to the traffic lights, on unsurprisingly, Broad Street (A3052).

As you enter Lyme Regis from the west on the A3052 go down the hill and through all the shops and the entrance can be seen to the right just as the Rock Point Inn comes in to view ahead. 

Coming from the east drop down in to the town and go through the traffic lights. Soon after the lights you will pass on your right some public toilets and the entrance to this car park is opposite. Maximum stay 3 hours and only 17 spaces.
