Stair Hole is a small cove where you can see the extraordinary folds of limestone strata known as the ‘Lulworth Crumple’. The unique rock structure was created during the Alpine orogeny and exposed by subsequent erosion.

Stair Hole is a series of three small coves semi protected from the sea with interesting rock formations and caves.
