Lulworth Attractions
Lulworth (5mi/8km south of Wool), with its castle ruins, lies on an almost circular bay called Lulworth Cove. It is worth visiting the 0.6mi/1km-large petrified forest.
Lulworth is a UNESCO World Heritage site with rock formations from the Jurassic period to the the Cretaceous period.
Lulworth Castle is located in Dorset on the Isle of Purbeck. This English Heritage property began as a hunting lodge in the 17th C, then in the 18th C it became a fashionable country house. Damage from a fire in 1929 has been repaired.
Open to the public for the first time, visitors will learn about the history of the castle and may try to solve the "Lulworth Riddle" for prizes.
