Discover Some of Dorset’s Most Beautiful Hidden Coves
Although Corfe Castle is inland, some of Dorset’s most stunning beaches are only a short drive away. Within 20 minutes you can reach dramatic Jurassic Coast coves, sandy bays and quieter, more natural beaches.
Chapman’s Pool is one of the most spectacular beach spots. This hidden cove sits beneath towering cliffs and is unspoilt. It’s a walk to reach, but the views and peaceful setting make it well worth the effort.
A little further along the coast, you’ll find Studland Bay, one of Dorset’s most renowned beaches. With miles of soft sand and views to Old Harry Rocks, it’s ideal for a full day at the beach. In this part of Dorset, Studland remains our family’s favourite.
