Town Mill is a restored watermill in the artisan quarter of Lyme Regis, brought back to life by local volunteers after a ten-year restoration. You can explore all three floors for free, watch the working waterwheel, and see volunteer millers grinding stoneground wholemeal flour, which you can buy in the mill shop. The cobbled courtyard is also home to an art gallery and creative businesses, including a pottery, jewellery workshop and micro-brewery. It suits families and anyone curious about history and traditional crafts, with no booking required for self-guided viewing. The mill is a short walk from Lyme Regis Church Cliff Beach, and with 54 bookable places to stay within 5 miles, it makes an easy addition to a seaside stay in Dorset.
