Burngate - all beaches

The coastal path is absolutely amazing. There is an abundance of wildlife to observe, and the views overlooking the sea are simply breathtaking. Although the walk can be a bit challenging in certain areas, having a reliable pair of walking boots will greatly help. Don't forget to bring a camera along as it is essential for capturing the beauty of this walk. Enjoy!

This beach is an amazing spot for a day trip. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking, and the journey to reach it takes around an hour from Lulworth Cove. Trust me, it's worth the effort - the beauty of this place is simply unmatched.

Visiting the beach was definitely worth it, even though it was quite crowded as anticipated. The charming village was adorned with stunning cottages and delightful shops. However, due to the holiday rush, we decided not to grab a bite to eat. The beach itself was composed of pebbles rather than sand and was bustling with people. Nonetheless, we ventured to the perimeter of the cove where we found a peaceful spot. Additionally, we embarked on the Jurassic coast walk and explored the fossil forest, which was an enjoyable experience. The weather was perfect, making the walk a picturesque one.

Today, we took a stroll along the beach and decided to do our part in keeping it clean by picking up litter. To our dismay, we collected two full bags of plastic bottles and still couldn't gather it all. It's disheartening to see the disregard some people have for the environment. We urge everyone to be mindful and take responsibility for their waste by properly disposing of it. Let's work together to preserve the natural beauty of our beaches.

We stayed in the 'glamping' bell tents for a few nights as a special treat while our friends camped in a nearby field. Considering the extra cost we paid for the tent and the lanterns, chairs, etc., you would expect the inside to have been cleaned before our arrival! There was a used band-aid, candy wrappers, and a lot of spider webs at chest height, indicating that the tent hadn't been occupied in a while. Although this was disappointing, we did enjoy the facilities and activities offered at the site, such as the circus school, dog walking, and food outlets. The communal showers were clean and functional, but there should be more washing up stations to avoid long queues of up to 40 minutes. The toilets were generally fine, but the antibacterial gel was not refilled in the evenings when toilet paper was restocked! The prices at the shop, food outlets, and bar were quite reasonable, and they offered a variety of local products. The on-site bakery was a fantastic addition! Despite the site being advertised as 'family-friendly', there seemed to be a lack of concern from security regarding campers who made excessive noise (such as shouting loudly for an hour at 2 am), which was quite bothersome. However, we didn't experience any traffic issues mentioned by others, as the staff managed the one-way system quite efficiently.

The beach is truly stunning, and it's a shame that some individuals claim there isn't one simply because they don't want to trek to the end. In reality, there are two beaches, but they require a significant amount of walking and stair-climbing to access.
