We travelled to the famous Durdle Door in April, left very early in morning to arrive so we were able to get good photos without many tourist. As I am a famous artist we deserved to have the beach to…Full review by Nata H

A fantastic view and beach. It was a steep slope and all uphill on the way back, be aware. We went early and got good pics and not too crowded.Full review by AnuNim
I visited Durdle Door in 2017 and plan to go back this year, however, my daughter went last year and told me the beach on the left as you descend the steps has been closed. Does anyone know if this is a permanent closure? Also I want to photograph the sunrise there but the car park does not open until 8am, does anyone know if there is anywhere nearby to park?
A:
The path was closed but they were working to make another set of steps. Not sure when they are going to be opened. Looked like it might be ready for the new season this year.
Hi! I have one last night to spend in England and I'd love to go to Durdle Door. How would I get there from London? Are there places to stay the night?
A:
Yes, there are nearby caravan park type of accommodation. I suggest you book prior making you way there. I drove there which possibly is the better option. Take care
Are there any toilets or showers nearby? Where is the nearest place to eat? Thank you

Hi I am going with a 3 years old Kid. Is it safe to walk to the door with kids ? What is the best place to park (happy to pay a fee) so that the walk is minimum. Is there a specific walking route suggestions

There is a car park at the top of the cliffs when you enter Durdle Door, there is a fee, Which is dependant on how long you stay there. The walk from the car park to Durdle Door is very steep & you need a reasonable degree of fitness especially on the way back. A young child would need to be closely monitored and the walk may prove rather gruelling I am afraid.
If we walk from Durdle Door Holiday parking is it still a very long walk to durdle door beach? Any idea how long is it? and we are not looking for Lulworth Cove
A:
About 20 to 30 minutes with steep decline on loose gravel track slippery when wet. certain amount of fitness is required for trek back up to carpark.
