Southwell and its attractions for beach lovers
While Southwell itself is known more for its charming architecture and historical sites than for coastal activities, nearby Portland offers beautiful beaches that are perfect for travelers seeking sun and sand. Just a short drive away, you can visit Chesil Beach, a stunning 18-mile stretch of shingle that’s ideal for sunbathing, picnicking, and even birdwatching. The nearby Portland Bill and its iconic lighthouse provide breathtaking views and opportunities for coastal walks, where you can discover the rugged beauty of the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. For families, the sandy shores of Weymouth Beach are a fantastic playground, offering safe swimming and plenty of beachside amenities to keep everyone entertained. After a day at the beach, consider staying in one of the inviting hotels in the Weymouth area, where you can enjoy modern comforts, attentive service, and perhaps even a sea view from your room. This combination of beach activities and quality accommodation ensures a memorable getaway for families looking to blend relaxation with adventure.
