Facilities include a grassy area behind the beach, parking managed by the National Trust, a cafe and toilets.
A superb beach cafรฉ is situated right on the Chesil Bank offering superb views of Lyme Bay while you relax and enjoy fantastic food. There’s lots of inside space and a large deck to enjoy in the warmer weather. This eatery is family-friendly and very welcoming to all, dogs included.
