Alexandra Hotel & Restaurant

The Alexandra Hotel & Restaurant in Lyme Regis is a wedding venue simply brimming with coastal charm. Perched on the hillside overlooking Lyme Bay and the rugged Jurassic Coast, this boutique hideaway combines breathtaking views with an intimate atmosphere, making it one of the most romantic wedding destinations in England.

With its Georgian Dower House heritage and secluded gardens, the Alexandra offers a tranquil oasis for couples seeking a truly personal celebration. Licensed for civil ceremonies, blessings, and vow renewals, the hotel tailors each wedding to the couple’s vision. Whether you dream of saying your vows in the charming 18th-century Chapel, the light-filled Orangery, or the romantic Garden Lookout Tower, every space exudes character and style. For larger celebrations, the elegant Dining Room provides a refined yet relaxed setting. And if you want to take things to the next level, why not turn your wedding into a full-house party? With exclusive hire, you and your loved ones can take over the entire hotel, ensuring your celebrations carry on well into the night.

The Alexandra's seaside location offers unparalleled photo opportunities, from the dramatic cliffs of the Jurassic Coast to the world-famous Cobb Harbour, voted one of England’s most romantic spots. Between the picturesque gardens and sweeping sea views, every moment here feels cinematic.
Your wedding day deserves equally unforgettable cuisine, and the Alexandra delivers. From starters like seared Lyme Bay scallops to mains like Dorset roast rump of lamb or a rich three-cheese pithivier, the hotel’s menus reflect the best of West Country produce. Finish with indulgent puddings like warm fondant chocolate tart for a meal that’s as memorable as the setting.

When the day winds down, retreat to one of the Alexandra’s 25 unique bedrooms, many with panoramic sea views. Wake up to the sound of waves, share breakfast in the Orangery, and start your new chapter with cosy moments on the summer terrace. At the Alexandra Hotel, your wedding isn’t just a celebration - it’s a storybook beginning.
