Lulworth & Surrounding

West & East Lulworth

The Jurassic, Dorset coastline is dotted with exceptional geological features, perhaps the most famous being Lulworth Cove. Lulworth Cove is an awesome work of nature, which was formed over 10,000 years ago. All of our cottages to rent in the village of Lulworth, are within walking distance of the seaside and Cove. The Cove boasts the West Lulworth Heritage Centre (with toilets) acting as a museum about Lulworth and its coast and the history of the village, with plenty of Lulworth Souvenirs.  There are several olde pubs within the village and a wet fish shop.  Those that love exploring rock pools, clifftop walks and the coast will love Lulworth.  You can walk from Lulworth Cove to Durdle Door.

Lulworth is on Bus Route – X43, 103 or 104 – Lulworth Cove bus stop.  There is a large car park, though charges apply throughout the year, cash or card accepted.
