The Landmark Trust Public Open Days - Belmont
This fine 18th-century maritime villa in Lyme Regis is listed Grade II* and once belonged to the remarkable businesswoman, Mrs Eleanor Coade who devised a formula to mass produce architectural embellishments. More recently Belmont was home to world-famous author, John Fowles, author of The Magus and The French Lieutenant's Woman.
We have restored Belmont to its appearance in Mrs Coade’s day. Here you can sit – and indeed write – in John Fowles’s former writing room with its wide views
The building will be open between 10am & 4pm on Saturday 18th & Sunday 19th September 2021.
Entry is free but tickets need to be pre-booked via EventBrite: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/belmont-lyme-regis
