Food scene

This has great food and vibe and a big outdoor table area. Great for breakfast / brunch and open until around 4pm. It's really popular so you may have to wait for a table on weekends but worth it.

Sightseeing

Beautiful headland a 10 min drive away or around 30-40 mins along the beach from here. Walk along the beach, over the hill or through the woods with a cafe at the end amongst the beach huts. You can also take a boat ferry to Mudeford from there.

Purbecks - A great spot before or after walking to Winspit - an old quarry on the clifftops with amazing views and a lovely walk through the fields to get there. Start of finish at this tiny pub with a big garden, a beer and a pasty (this is the only food they do).

The market on Saturdays is worth a visit, a mixture of food / goods down the high street and then branches off through the town with bric a brac / antiques. Good cafes too. Worth then continuing to West Bay (the harbour for Bridport) for a walk on the beach.

Great beach

Take the Sandbanks ferry to get to the Purbecks and Shell Bay beach, sand dunes and a stunning beach. Not much in the way of facilities so take supplies but you can walk further along to Knoll Beach where there is a cafe and car park.
