The romantic 17th Century Lulworth Castle set in the grounds of Lulworth Park and Estate makes for a fascinating family day out.
Originally built as a hunting lodge for gentry and royalty, Lulworth Castle is now open to the public. You can enjoy its extensive parkland and woodland as well explore inside the castle itself, where you can learn about its captivating history.
Within the grounds is 15th Century St Andrews Church and the beautiful Georgian gem, St Mary’s Catholic Chapel.
The Weld family have owned the Lulworth Estate for centuries and have restored much of it to its former glory alongside English Heritage, after a devastating fire in 1929.
The castle’s tea room serves light lunches, cream teas and ice creams and has seating in the courtyard entranceway.
