East and West Lulworth

The Lulworth Estate is situated in south west Purbeck and is owned by the Weld Family who live on the estate. The scenery around the area is stunning, with the estate boasting some of the most dramatic features of Purbeck and also forms part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. Kimmeridge, Wool and Chaldon Herring are all a short distance from here.

West Lulworth is where you will find Lulworth Cove with its perfectly rounded bay and variety of small shops and eateries. Boat Trips and Kayaking are available from here. A short walk from the Cove over the hill on the South West Coast Path brings you to Durdle Door with its magnificent arch and beach. There are also easy or more strenuous walks in the area.

Lulworth Castle and Park with its beautiful grounds and chapel is found in East Lulworth. The Castle was devastated by a fire in 1929 and has been restored in part to allow visitors the chance to enter the Castle. There is also a village pub and tea rooms housed in the old school. Why not cycle from Wareham on the East Lulworth Ride?

Lulworth is an area to easily spend a few days visiting. There is a Visitor Information Centre at the Cove and, although rocky, the beaches are some of the most beautiful in the area.
