Lyme Regis is a picturesque town on the West Dorset border, part of the Jurassic Coast, World Heritage site. Steeped in history, it is renowned for its fascinating past, mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, the unique fossils found in the cliffs and beaches, and for being the central location of the novel and the 1981 film, ' The French Lieutenant's Woman'.

The Wharton Family has been welcoming guests for over forty years and the success of the Hotel Riviera is due to our striving for impeccable standards in both accommodation and service. Our policy of continual improvement has resulted not only in rooms and facilities of the highest quality but also in a genuine sense of welcome from a loyal and long-serving staff who have a well deserved reputation for friendliness and excellent service.

The Tumbling Weir is a small thatched hotel, converted from a 17th Century cottage, nestling between the River Otter and its mill stream. Lynn and Paul Thurgate welcome you to their picturesque, family owned and run hotel, for a comfortable and relaxing stay in a very tranquil, rural setting, away from traffic noise and street lights.

Rest and relaxation is our aim, whether in guests’ private rooms or in the two guest reception areas. Enjoy the cosy sitting room (with daily and local newspapers, and sofas plush enough to fall asleep in!) which creates a cocoon-like comfort zone, especially on cold days. Or walk through the French doors into the spacious wicker-furnished conservatory and immediately, even on a grey day, have your spirits lifted.
