A contemporary beachside inn in the heart of Lyme Regis

The Pilot Boat sits right on the edge of the beach in the historic coastal town of Lyme Regis. The award-winning pub balances modern luxury with traditional character, overlooking the water along the Jurassic Coast. It provides a central, scenic base for anyone stopping by for an exceptional meal or exploring nearby town attractions, such as the famous Cobb harbour wall.

Pizza ovens, boutique rooms, and a sun-trap roof terrace

An open-plan kitchen and dedicated pizza oven serve an all-day menu built on fresh, local ingredients. Visitors can start the morning with artisan coffee or drop in later for a pint of Palmers award-winning ale from the innovative inside-outside bar. The building features an air-conditioned restaurant alongside a sun-trap roof terrace designed to make the most of the spectacular seaside views.

For longer holidays, three boutique bedrooms provide high-end comfort upstairs, complete with oversized bathrooms, 4K televisions, minibars, and direct views of the water. The venue won the CAMRA Pub Refurbishment of the Year award for preserving its historic character within a modern layout. Full disabled facilities are available on-site, and the entire property is dog-friendly for walkers coming off the beach.
