We finally got an afternoon together this weekend so decided to embrace the sunshine and headed off the Durdle door in Dorset. Durdle door is part of the Jurrasic coast, a world heritage site, and the main attraction is an arched rock formation- you might recognise it from Nanny McPhee, Wilde or Far from the Madding Crowd. The arch was formed when softer rocks were eroded away from the hard limestone allowing the sea to force it's way through, neat huh?! ( I loved geography and geology at school!). There's loads of other amazing rock formations through out Dorset such as the famous Old Harry rocks, Stair hole and Bat's head but for today we just stuck to an exhausting walk along the cliff tops. It was so lovely being able to spend a day out in the sunshine together with pup and playing with our new camera.
Have you ever been to durdle door?
What did you do in the sunshine this weekend?

When we went here on our geology uni trip last year I got way more excited about Man o' War cove on the other side, #truemetalfanproblems
ReplyDeleteI love how sunny it looks though!

Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are probably in my top five best places in England! We used to go quite a bit as children but we haven't been for ages. Beautiful photos.

ReplyDeleteJen | sunny sweet pea xx
dont think I'd have the patience for it at uni! The weather was perfect x
DeleteI have been to Durdle Door, it's not too far from me, although I haven't been for many years - shame on me :( This weekend we went for a wander around Stourhead which is literally in my back yard. The sun was shining and it felt so good to be in the great outdoors.
ReplyDeleteTotaly agree, people spend too much time indoors these days which is such a shame!x
DeleteWhat a glorious day! I'm so envious of your little trip. It looks just heavenly. I was brought up by the sea and constantly crave it. I can almost smell the salt air and hear the screeching seagulls. Bliss! x
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain, I hated being away from the sea when living in London :( x
DeleteAgain, such amazing photos! I love that there are such beautiful places in this country. You have captured this wonderfully!x
ReplyDeleteNever been but now I so want to go!
