Towering sea cliffs and grasslands rich in wild flowers.
A distinctive limestone landscape on the South Coast where sea birds soar and rare orchids hide among rich grasslands. Centuries of stone quarrying have left their mark in the form of sea quarries like Dancing Ledge, popular for both picnics and adventure sports. School boys from the local prep school used to come down to the Ledge to swim in the old seawater swimming pool which was blasted from the rock in the 20th century.
Footpaths and bridleways criss-cross farmland marked out with traditional dry stone walls.
The South West Coast Path affords spectacular views of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site as far as Portland.
Keates Quarry with it's dinosuar footprints is nearby.
