Frequently Asked Questions

We'd reccomend sticking with Bournemouth and Hengistbury Head, wondering into Christchurch & Mudeford. Although, we also really like Lulworth Cove, the Purbecks and Old Harry Rocks. The views are stunning, the coastal walks are lovely, and it's great for swimming. With a young family, stick local with the more commercial attractions like Farmer Palmer and Moors Valley. If you're a couple, we'd recommend the Jurassic coastal walks (but be warned – it's hilly!).
