A Unique Cliff-Top Golf Club Offering Stunning Coastal Views
Overlooking the historical town of Lyme Regis and the iconic Portland Bill, Lyme Regis Golf Club is a place where nature and sport converge in perfect harmony. With stunning views of the coastline, it is not only a retreat for golfers but also an ideal destination for those looking to experience the incredible natural beauty of the area.
One of the most striking features of Lyme Regis Golf Club is its dramatic cliff-top location. As you step onto the 18-hole par 71 course, you’re greeted with panoramic views of the stunning Dorset coastline, stretching from the famous Lyme Regis Harbour to the distant Portland Bill. The course offers an excellent perspective of the World Heritage Site, a geological treasure recognized by UNESCO for its remarkable natural formations. The rugged cliffs and crashing waves below add a sense of awe to your round, reminding you that golf here is as much about the experience as it is about the game itself.
A Challenging Test for All Abilities
While Lyme Regis Golf Club is undeniably beautiful, it is also a challenging test for golfers of all abilities. The course is known for its tight well-maintained fairways, tricky lies, and undulating greens. The gentle yet persistent sea breeze adds an element of unpredictability, requiring golfers to carefully assess the wind and adjust their shots accordingly.
For those newer to the game, the course remains approachable, offering multiple tees and a friendly atmosphere that encourages improvement and there are superb coaching facilities, including a full-length driving range and an indoor teaching room / studio which is equipped with the latest technology. Furthermore, fellow PGA Professional Duncan Driver -named by Today’s Golfer Magazine as one of the top 50 coaches in Great Britain and Ireland- is available for lessons.
They also have a thriving junior section at the club, ranging from 5 to 18 years of age. Coached by the Fellow PGA Professional and team, they offer Juniors the best opportunity to enjoy and develop their golf whatever their age or experience. And very popular weekend sessions that cover a variety of areas both on the course and in the performance centre.
For more experienced and independent golfers, the layout provides plenty of opportunities to display skill, with strategically placed bunkers and challenging hazards that demand precision and thoughtful shot-making.
