#1 Visit Corfe Castle

Dorest, National Trust, Corfe Castle

Coming in at number one, it’s an absolute English and National Trust classic.

Corfe Castle, near Swanage, has some gorgeous walks around, including the Purbeck Ridge, but the castle grounds, along with the incredibly cute model village nearby, make this a fantastic day out.

With tons of English history to learn as part of the displays at the castle, it’s really the views as you climb to the top that made it for me.

Plus, since 2024 and a £2 million conservation project, the Castle’s Keep has been open to the public for the first time since its destruction in 1646!

Normally open daily from 10am to 5pm (4pm during winter time), a visit to Corfe Castle generally takes about 1-2 hours, depending on how much you want to linger and snap!

Top Tip: Become a National Trust member and get free entry to more than 500 sites around the UK, plus free parking at most National Trust car parks – which is especially useful in the Southwest… Dorset included!

 

#2 Walk to Old Harry Rocks

UK, Dorset, Old Harry's Rocks

And if we’re talking about views, then it’s hard to find a better place to visit in Dorset than Old Harry Rocks.

An incredible geological formation found in Studland, walking out to these dramatic cliffs to take in the sea air and snap the drama of this spot, is something that can’t be missed when you visit Dorset.

Enjoy the fresh air, or even bring some food and drinks, as there is an open grass area here that’s perfect for a quick picnic.

The entire area is also dog friendly – although a lead is compulsory due to the height of the cliffs and the unpredictability of happy excited dogs!

Want to get a closer look?

There are boat tours that run to Old Harry’s Rocks during the summer and even guided kayaking tours for the more adventurous with companies like H2OAdventures.

 

#3 Head to Studland

Dorset, Studland, The Pig

And more broadly than Old Harry Rocks, there’s a whole load of beauty to take in on Studland, which means you’ve definitely got to visit this area of Dorset more broadly.

From stunning beaches, like Knoll Beach, through to the dramatic hiking along the Southwest Coastal Path, and even the cute village of Studland itself, if you’re after a treat, then the Pig on the Beach is the perfect excuse to do just that!

Why not start (or end) your visit at Studland Bay?

This amazing piece of natural coastline, boasts a 4 mile stretch of golden sandy beaches, plus a maze of endless trails that is free to explore and watch wildlife from – look out for deer, birds and all 6 British reptiles.

Top Tip: If you’re a history lover, do not miss Fort Henry – a WW2 observation bunker where Churchill, Eisenhower and King George VI watched rehearsals for D-Day

 

#4 Swing by Swanage

Dorset, Swanage, View

And just down the road, the town of Swanage in east Dorset is another must-visit location.

An old town with loads seaside charm, including donkey rides, steam train rides and top fishing opps, it’s really the amazing sandy beach strip that people come here to visit.

The gardens at the end of the beach, and the view they give over the town and the coast, really are delightful, and you shouldn’t miss Swanage Pier, or Durlston Country Park National Nature Reserve, while you’re down this way either.

If you visit during the summer months, be sure to check Swanage’s events calendar – and try to time your trip with carnival week, when colourful floats and a lot of musical events with bands from all over south England descend on the town.

Beyond local events, Swanage also offers a great balance between adventure activities (think touring the coast in a Land Rover safari, or on an ebike tour for example), culture, historical walking tours, and fun attractions like ziplining above the pier or indoor climbing.

Learn more in my list of the top 10 things to do in Swanage.

 

#5 Delight in Abbotsbury Abbey

UK, Dorset, Abbotsbury

And now we swing to the other end of the county and west Dorset, as it’s time to bring the beautiful, historic village of Abbotsbury onto this list.

Honestly, things don’t get more quintessential than this gem and its chocolate-box appearance, thanks to the beautiful thatched-roof cottages, with their cute roses climbing up the façade and classic English gardens in front.

Some of the most photographic cottages in the county are complemented here by an array of cute, independent shops and tearooms, alongside a number of churches, a hill fort and some beautiful walks.

Having inspired the famous English writer Thomas Hardy, it’s the Abbotsbury Abbey however that really sets this place apart, and definitely makes it one of the best places to visit in Dorset.

Don’t miss the nearby St Catherines Chapel either, which has been triumphantly standing on a hill between the village and the coast since the 14th century!

Both are run by English Heritage and should not be missed!

Top Tip: Become an English Heritage member and get unlimited free entry to 400+ sites around the UK, hundreds of year-round events and free parking at most English Heritage car parks.

Also make also sure you don’t skip the Swannery – a peaceful sanctuary to over 600 swans, including the only mute swans you’ll find anywhere in the world.

The visit here takes anywhere from 2-5 hours depending on your pace, but even the briefest of trips is worth it!

Afterwards, head down to the beach and explore this huge sandy stretch, where parking starts at a manageable £4.10 per day.

 

#6 Tick Durdle Door Off Your List

UK, Dorset, Durdle Door

And another Dorset gem that should certainly not be missed is the UNESCO-listed wonder of Durdle Door.

A huge natural arch, formed at the foot of some steep cliffs due to coastal erosion, this iconic sight is one of the most familiar in the UK, and if you’re looking to tick off some bucket list classic while you’re in Dorset, this is the one!

With beautiful beaches around, as well as some great clifftop walking care of the Southwest Coastal Path, there’s tons to do around Durdle Door too, which means it’s easy to make a day out of it.

A large paid car park nearby allows you to do that with ease, but do beware of the steep walk to get down to the beach and back!

Otherwise, why not stay the night?

Durdle Door Holiday Park is a short 15 minute walk away and accepts all things camping, as long as they are not directly on the beach.

Roof-tents, trailer tents, even reusable BBQs are all fine, as long as they are raised off the ground and away from the sand.

Just imagine brewing your coffee and going to watch the sunrise alone at Durdle Door before the crowds come … dreamy!

 

#7 Discover Lulworth Cove

UK, Dorset, Lulworth Cove

And talking of walks, one of the best you can enjoy in Dorset, in my opinion, is the walk between Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove.

Taking in some of the most beautiful scenery on the Southwest Coastal Path, this is a great walk, that shouldn’t take you longer than an hour, but allows you to marvel at 2 great Dorset icons.

Parking at Durdle Door is my advice – there’s more space – and then head across on the well-marked clifftop trail to Lulworth Cove.

Here you can snap this gorgeous circular bay to your heart’s content, before grabbing an ice cream or vegan sorbet.

I also recommend stepping in the Visitor Centre, just next to the car park, to get an idea of what it is you are seeing – after all, the spectacular landforms here are over 150 million years old and the 5 types of rock present, make it a unique place for geology enthusiasts.

The Lulworth Cove Heritage Centre is open every day from 10am to 5pm (4pm during winter) and entrance is completely FREE.

Plus, once you’re done with the history, you can take a boat or kayak, or even swim in the cove, as the waters aren’t deeper than 8 feet (2.5m), before heading to one of the nearby restaurants or cafes.

 

#8 Rockpool at Kimmeridge Bay

UK, Dorset, Fishing Nets

And if you’re into coves, then checking out nearby Kimmeridge Bay is another must when it comes to places to visit in Dorset.

Located just east of Lulworth Cove, Kimmeridge is famous for its rock pools, which provide some great snorkelling, surfing and windsurfing opportunities.

A Marine Special Area of Conservation, head to the Wild Seas Centre to learn more about this landscape and its ecosystem, before scaling up to Clavell Tower that overlooks the bay for some great views.

There is some parking at Kimmeridge, but you have to pay via a toll road to get down into the bay, so this one is probably best accessed on foot or by bike if you can.

 

#9 Watch Sunset from Swyre Head

UK, Dorset, Countryside

The top sunset-watching spot in Dorset in my opinion, Swyre Head is an elevated hilltop located just near Kimmeridge.

Walk here from Kimmeridge, before the sun goes down – perhaps with a small picnic packed – and then enjoy the colour display in front of you as the light fades and shimmers over the landscape and coast.

At 203m, Swyre Head is the highest point in the Isle of Purbeck, and is known as a Marilyn – a hill whose peak or prominence is 150m above everything else in its immediate vicinity!

Don’t however, confuse this hill with the other Swyre Head in Dorset, which is just 11 miles away, to the west of Durdle Door.

Standing at just 98m high, the views here are definitely not as grand!

 

#10 Check Out the Isle of Portland

UK, Dorset, Bus

Now it’s time to continue westwards along the Dorset Coast, as I bring you the next entry on this list of the best places to visit in Dorset.

Hanging off the town of Weymouth and suspended in the sea like a teardrop, the Isle of Portland is a glorious nature reserve where you can enjoy some epic walking right on the edge of England.

Wild and natural, quaint and isolated, it’s not just the rugged beauty you’ll be amazed at here, but also the history with castles, museums and lighthouses all waiting to be explored, and their hidden takes of smugglers and pirates just waiting to be discovered.

Built at the end of the 19th century, Portland Harbour, remains one of the biggest man-made ports in the world.

It has seen everything, from WWI Royal Navy Ships, to NATO exercises and even the 2012 Olympic open water swimming competitions!

And while we’re on the subject of water, the Isle of Portland is a great place to try your hand at kitesurfing, scuba diving, windsurfing, stand up paddle boarding or sailing too – just one more reason to head here!

 

#11 Day Trip to Weymouth

UK, Dorset, Sandy Beach

But now for something a bit more on the beaten track, we head to the Dorset town of Weymouth, which is situated just above the Isle of Portland.

Famous for its golden sandy beaches, which have Blue Flag status, the pretty harbour here and safe, shallow swimming waters, make this a firm favourite with families.

Not to mention its yearly sunshine days average almost 50% higher than the UK average, so this is one of your best bets for a spectacular British beach day!

Sailing and other water sports add to the action in Weymouth, otherwise you can hire a classic deckchair and just relax with an ice cream on the beach.

When it comes to evening adventures, why not spend a night out in the town?

The lively restaurants and cafes make for a great evening atmosphere, and Weymouth is well known for its colourful nightlife – from fancy dress to live music – in many venues along the harbour.

Top Tip: If you’re visiting Weymouth in mid-August, you have a great chance of catching the town’s annual Carnival – don’t miss!

 

#12 Stroll Bournemouth Pier

Another of Dorset’s top towns, and another family classic down in these parts, it’s the beautiful beachside spot of Bournemouth.

With some superb sandy stretches, a bustling student community, beautiful landscaped gardens, as well as some top museums and galleries, it’s really the historic pier that seals it for me!

A retro-classic, lined with arcades and attractions, this is British seaside kitsch at its best, with pier entry fees under £2 for adults and children.

Why not visit the Oceanarium, ride the pier zip line, or enjoy the amazing views form the Bournemouth Wheel 100ft in the air?

Or you could check out one of my personal favourites in town, the Aviation Museum!

With its collection of both civil and military planes that you can actually clamber into, it’s easy to experience what sitting in the cockpit was like decades ago here.

 

#13 Fossil Find in Lyme Regis

UK, Dorset, Village

And at number 13 on this list, we come to another great Dorset town, this time the most westerly one of Lyme Regis.

Famous for its fossil-collecting possibilities, this historic gem (it’s actually mentioned in the ancient Doomsday Book) is located in the heart of Jurassic Coast.

Daily guided fossil finding tours, where local guides help you find your own 180 million years old souvenir, right there in the clay, are a must!

There’s so much to enjoy in Lyme Regis, but the jewel in its crown has to be the gorgeous harbour known as The Cobb, which has acted as a refuge since 1313 – don’t miss it!

The town is also a hot spot for British cuisine, with its tradition of fantastic fish and seafood all along the harbour, as well as several Food Festivals during summer that showcase the local produce and farmers.

Did you know several scenes in Wonka (the 2023 film starring Timothee Chalamet) were filmed in Lyme Regis too?

That’s right, the world of pure imagination is right here in Dorset… don’t miss it!

 

#14 Browse Bridport

UK, Dorset, Bridport Bookshop

And also over in the west of Dorset, Bridport is a lovely market town filled with a cultural and creative community.

Once nicknamed “Rope Town” because it was responsible for making rope for the Royal Navy since as early as the 13th century, it has since transitioned into its new nickname as the “Notting Hill on the Sea” due to its thriving art and culture scene.

Charming and quaint, the cute independent shops and cafes of this place make it an excellent stop on a road trip, or between sightseeing destinations if you’re looking to refresh and re-energise.

Regular farmer’s, vintage, vinyl, artisan and antique markets add to the offering here, as does the local Palmers Brewery and the iconic Art Deco cinema – The Electric Palace.

And if you feel like switching it up and doing something different, then why not head a bit inland from Birdport to Furleigh Estate.

A small vineyard, which produces still and sparkling wines from champagne grape varieties, there’s tastings and tours here every Wednesday to Sunday from June until October.

 

#15 Eat at Rick Stein’s

And now at the other end of the cultural spectrum, Sandbanks near Poole is one of the most elite places to live in the UK.

Boasting some of the most expensive coastal properties in the country, (the 4th highest land value by area in the world in 2005!), you should nevertheless take a trip to Sandbanks to just spot them!

While the properties and lifestyle may be out of reach, you can spend an amazing day on the beach here – the gorgeous, soft sand makes for a perfect family day.

Otherwise, why not rent a jet ski, a bike, a boat tour or some snorkelling gear and enjoy a special day.

After all that activity, there’s plenty of bouji places to treat yourself for lunch too… not least Rick Stein’s – a classic round in these here parts!

Their menu features local seafood and seasonal farmer’s produce, and you can even pre-order and take away – although the view from their covered terrace is worth eating in.

 

UK, Dorset, Red Phone Box

 

#16 Explore Brownsea Island

One of Dorset’s most magical spots in my opinion, Brownsea Island provides a unique sort of getaway.

As I was born on a tiny island, I’m always a fan, and Brownsea does not disappoint.

Managed and preserved by the National Trust, this island is known for its wildlife and is a great place to spot deer and red squirrel.

From late spring to early autumn, there are also weekly special events, starting with the Easter Egg Hunt and continuing with open air theatre, live music and all sorts of island tours.

National Trust members can enter for free, but the island is only open during the high season, and you’ll need to catch a ferry here from Poole Quay if you want to enjoy it.

Day trips are possible, but to get the full experience, hitting up the campground here and staying overnight is a must.

A few overnight cottages owned and operated by the National Trust, sleep between 2 and 12 people.

Victorian conversions, these are beautifully quaint and, having the island (almost) to yourself, is definitely an amazing Dorset experience!

 

#17 Snap Burton Bradstock & Hive Beach

UK, Dorset, Blue Door

Another beautiful place to visit in Dorset is the twin destination of Burton Bradstock and Hive Beach.

The latter is one of my fav strips of sand to hit up in Dorset (the café is also awesome!), and the former is one of the best and most beautiful Dorset villages going!

And that’s saying something, because the competition here is fierce!

Burton Bradsock was first recorded in the Doomsday Book of 1086, but it was probably settled centuries before.

You can’t miss the spectacular 45m high vertical cliffs that mark the beginning of Chesil Beach.

Fun fact – they were used for training before the Normandy landings in 1943.

Hive Beach is a wide family friendly, dog friendly, sunshine friendly, golden beach with free parking if you are a National Trust member.

Even if you just go down for a cup of coffee, the views are worth it.

 

#18 Go Back in Time at Kingston Lacy

Another National Trust classic – Kingston Lacy is a stunning historic mansion that sits in the middle of the Dorset countryside.

Built in the style of a Venetian palace, this place has to be seen to be believed and, luckily, if you’re an NT member, you can do so for free.

Yes, if you hadn’t guessed already, buying a membership if you plan to spend any time in Dorset is certainly a good idea!

If not, access to the entire estate is £18, with a 50% discount for kids and special deals for families – be sure to check and purchase in advance.

With amazing gardens, meadows and heathlands outside to incredible rooms, opulent furniture and marvellous artwork inside, Kingston Lacy is a historic family home that has to be seen to be believed!

When the castle was bequest to the National Trust in 1983, it was the largest ever donation at the time!

Today it is home to one of the National Trust’s most important art collections, featuring works by Rubens, Van Dyck, Titian and Brueghel.

A fan of active tours?

Every Thursday there is a free cycle tour around the estate in partnership with Moors Valley Country Park.

The guides volunteer their time and you just need £2.50 for bike hire if you don’t bring your own – bargain!

 

#19 Walk on Chesil Beach

UK, Dorset, Chesil Beach

Ah Chesil Beach!

As a literature student, I was first made aware of this huge shingle barrier thanks to Ian McEwan’s famous novel, which meant when I finally got to visit Dorset, I knew I had to come down here!

It starts at the vertical cliffs of Burton Bradstock and stretches for 28km all the way to Isle of Portland, getting as high as 15km or 200 meters wide in some places.

An impressive natural spectacle, which is as wild and rugged as it sounds, it’s the ideal place to head for some alone time, moody walking and artistic, melancholic inspiration!

Nested between Chesil and the mainland is the Fleet – a unique Nature Reserve and a Marine Protected Area.

The only way to visit it is with the reserve’s own boat service, with skippers pointing out wildlife and telling charming stories about the bank, smuggling tales and shipwrecks from days gone.

You can only book this tour an hour in advance, but it comes highly recommended.

 

#20 Hit West Bay

Very close to Bridport – just 1.5km away in fact – West Bay is so beautiful however, I thought it worthy of its own entry on this list of the best places to visit in Dorset.

Made famous as the filming location of the great British TV drama Broadchurch, this stunning cliff-backed stretch of beach is flanked by a cute harbour, and can be reached from Bridport via a 20 minute stroll.

A charming fishing village with lovely cafes, shops and an epic coastal spot both on offer, this makes for an epic combination!

West Bay is also to the start of the so-called Jurassic Coast, which is UNESCO listed, so fossil hunting is a great thing to do here.

You can also enjoy coastal and countryside walks, fishing trips, scuba diving, paragliding, golfing and river boating in and around West Bay, which is just 20 minutes on foot (or a short bus ride) from Bridport.

 

UK, Dorset, Red Phone Box

 

#21 Wildlife Spot at Mudeford Sandbank

I haven’t touched on Christchurch much on this list, but tucked over in the east of Dorset, basically nudging the New Forest in Hampshire, Mudeford Sandbank is the jewel in this area’s crown.

A unique sand spit and a designated Site of Nature Conservation Interest, this feature creates a beautiful natural barrier between Christchurch Harbour and the open ocean, and is home to some of the UK’s rarest species of reptiles, birds and insects.

It’s also famous for its colourful beach huts, dotted along the sand spit, which are almost all residential and inhabited from April to October.

Accessible via bike, foot, land train or ferry, the best place to head for is Hengistbury Head car park, from where you can pick up a bike, train or ferry.

Passenger ferries depart from Mudeford Quay and Christchurch Quay, and when you’ll arrive you’ll be greeted by a long strip of beautiful white sand.

Top Tip: Make sure you have some cash with you. Entrance to the spit is free – hoorah! – but the ferry only operates on cash and the parking is also easier to pay that way.

If you’re only there for a day trip, there are several toilets along the beach and also shop.

For lunch, head to the Haven House Inn for traditional British pub food, or the Haven Cafe if you’re just feeling like a pint and something light to eat.

 

Where to Travel After Dorset?

England, New Forest, Me in National Park

If Dorset has wet your appetite to explore more of the south of the UK (and who can blame you?!), then you’ll be glad to know it’s just a hop, skip and a jump to several other stunning areas around.

To the south, the wonderful Isle of Wight can easily be accessed by ferry and offers more great walking and glamping opportunities.

Learn more in this list of the top things to do on the Isle of Wight.

Otherwise, to the west you have Devon and all the coastal hiking wonders this county provides or, to the east, the magnificent New Forest provides loads of great walks and cycling opps, as well as some fab pubs too!

Alternatively, to the north, the county of Somerset with the magnificent Cheddar Gorge and historic icons of Glastonbury and Wells shouldn’t be missed.

Top Travel Tips for Dorset

UK, Dorset, Me at Durdle Door

When to Visit Dorset?

There’s no question the best time to visit Dorset in my opinion is between the months of June and September when the weather is at its driest, sunniest and warmest.

Not only does this make for a more pleasant travel experience, but the better weather at this time of year will also allow you to enjoy more of the region’s beautiful landscapes too – whether that’s walking, cycling or hitting up the coast.

Within the summer months, do remember that the school holidays and sunny weekends will be by far the busiest months down here, so if you want to get the best prices or the thinnest crowds, it’s probably best to avoid these times!

As an FYI, I visited Dorset in mid-April and experienced idyllic weather that saw me hiking, beaching and sightseeing under brilliant blue skies every day, but this isn’t a given!

 

How to Get to Dorset?

Situated in the south of England, Dorset’s main town is Bournemouth and this place has the most regular train connections from London, along with frequent services from the nearby coastal cities of Southampton and Portsmouth.

Otherwise, the larger Dorset towns of Dorchester, Lyme Regis, Poole, Weymouth and Swanage also boast train stations, and you can choose between them depending on where you are coming from and where you are basing yourself when you’re down here.

Regardless of which station you choose to arrive at, my top tip is to use Trainline to find the cheapest deals on rail tickets across the UK, as these guys use split-fare technology to get you the best prices.

Booking in advance with Trainline can throw up some surprisingly cheap fares, especially as this site also allows you to easily compare routes and journey times.

Alternatively, you can drive to Dorset – this will grant you the most flexibility when you are down in this rural county, especially if you are planning to hike and sightsee off the beaten track.

If you don’t have a car, you may consider renting one and I highly recommend Discover Cars for the job, as they offer some super deals on short-term hires and are very reputable.

Learn more about how to score a great deal when renting a car in the UK using these handy top 12 tips I swear by!

 

How to Get Around Dorset?

There’s no doubt that the easiest way to explore Dorset is via 4 wheels, however there are several good bus services (especially in the summer) that can help you get around if you don’t have a vehicle.

The Jurassic Coaster and Purbeck Breezer buses are probably the most useful for beach go-ers, especially those who want to enjoy parts of the Southwest Coast Path.

These tourist-friendly routes are also ideal for those who just plan to sightsee, and sitting on their top deck sure does give some epic views!

Learn more about the Purbeck Breezer here.

If you don’t want to catch public transport, then cycling is also an option for getting around Dorset.

Although there are some designated trails, as well as calm and quiet country roads to enjoy, do beware there’s plenty of hills too!

 
Where to Stay in Dorset?

Bournemouth, Weymouth and Lyme Regis all have a heap of accommodation options.

However, Swanage would be my pick when it comes to a quieter beachside place to base yourself.

It’s just so beautiful there, and so near to many of Dorset’s best beaches and attractions, that it’s hard to pass up!

When it comes to accommodation in Swanage, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better deal than the YHA Swanage, which has both private rooms and dorms.

For something more suited to groups looking for some self-catering accommodation, this Shepherd’s House, also in Swanage, is a top-rated 2 bedroom house that gets regular rave reviews thanks to its excellent comfort, cleanliness and location.

Just down the road, The Bear Hotel, in Wareham, offers lovely double and family rooms with an onsite bar, restaurant and a charming boutique feel.

Otherwise, over in West Dorset, the wonderful Pumpkin View Cottage is the perfect Airbnb spot for 1-2 travellers near Dorcester.

The owners are delightful and the property is beautifully peaceful and clean.
