From the rock formations around the old fishing town of Lyme Regis to the arch carved by the sea at Durdle Door and the sheltered bay of nearby Lulworth Cove, the coastline is stunning with the Dorset Coastal Path running most of its length. Weymouth and Bournemouth are both popular resorts in the area. Inland enjoy a cream tea in Hardy Country around Dorchester, visit the chalk giant at Cerne Abbas or explore the Isle of Purbeck and rugged Corfe Castle with its old stone streets.
