  • Lulworth Cove is a very sheltered pebble beach in a remarkable, horseshoe shaped cove, formed ten thousand years ago by erosion from the sea.

    There is ample parking, a cafe, toilets and boat trips in summer to Durdle Door and Mupe Bay.

    Given the Lulworth’s iconic nature it does get busy down here during the holidays, throughout the year.
