Drakes Way, Lyme Regis, DT7

A charming lock up shop forming part of an established retail enclave in Lyme Regis, moments away from the main shopping street and seafront.

The premises are available to let as a vacant shop.

Lyme Regis is a thriving and picturesque coastal town noted for its unspoilt character, charming seafront and the famous centuries old Cobb Harbour. An increasing number of visitors are attracted to the town each year, both in the peak Summer season and throughout the remainder of the year. Regular visitors also include day trippers from elsewhere in East Devon and West Dorset, and also numerous holiday home owners who come here to escape the 'rat race' and enjoy the uniqueness of Lyme, its spectacular coastal scenery and lovely surrounding countryside.

The town is situated on the beautiful and unspoilt Devon and Dorset 'Jurassic Coast' awarded World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in December 2001.
