About This Place

Set against a backdrop of coastal woodland this private beach has a very remote feel and is often deserted. The beach is owned by the Rousdon Estate which consists of 350 coastal acres of farm, parkland, private land and nature reserve between Seaton and Lyme Regis --> While the beach appears pebbly in the photos it can often be much more sandy, and there is always sand below the tide line. Described as having its own microclimate, Charlton Undercliff beach stretches for nearly a mile in a gentle arc.The beach can be accessed via the coast path from either Lyme Regis or Axmouth. There is also access through the Rousdon Estate, although no parking.

💡 Our Take

DogParkUK recommends Charlton Undercliff Beach, nestled along the stunning coastline of East Sussex. The beach’s expansive sandy stretch and welcoming attitude towards dogs year-round make it a canine paradise. With no restrictions, it's perfect for puppies learning to socialize, or big dogs needing room to roam. Parking is conveniently close, but remember to pack your own essentials, as facilities are sparse nearby. Refreshingly quiet, it's ideal for anxious pups to explore at their own pace. However, be cautious of strong currents when swimming. This tranquil beach is a truly special getaway for you and your furry friend.
