We’re delighted to confirm we appear to have dried out following the torrential rain and will be open as usual from 10am today.
Thanks for the patience and we’re looking forward to transporting you to the delightful Oddicombe Beach and back once again!

Team Babbacombe Cliff Railway
Hi All
We have been having intermittent issues with the running of the Railway since the torrential rain of yesterday.
Unfortunately as a result we have had to take the decision to close for the moment.
As you would expect, our staff are working hard behind the scenes to enable us to reopen ASAP and we will keep you posted with progress.
As we have had to say rather a lot this week, thank you for your patience and we will update you again as soon as we can.
Best wishes
Team Babbacombe Cliff Railway

Instead of opening at 10am we will open between 10:30am and 11am.
Thanks for your patience everyone and we look forward to seeing you soon.
