The view of giant is best from the opposite hill. When I took my photo the chalk was very dull so viewing wasn’t brilliant but I know they restore him every now and again so he should be bright again.The climb up past the giant is very steep so if hiking poles would be a great addition and grippy footwear 👟

Be careful as it is unpaved. Passable on a road bike, and offers a good alternative to busy roads.

This provides a perfect viewpoint from which to observe the large hill figure of the Cerne Giant. It's at just the right distance, not too far, to see the figure in its entirety.

Quadrangular castle built in 1370. Not open for visitors but you can stay there. https://www.visit-dorset.com/listing/woodsford/112486301/ & https://www.landmarktrust.org.uk/search-and-book/properties/woodsford-castle-13233/#Overview

Good food and very welcoming. Plenty of cycling climbing around here, especially when the ranges are open.

Historic house & Gardens with Cafe: https://www.athelhampton.com/ Athelhampton is one of England's finest Tudor Manors and has attractive gardens. Cafe has been more limited post COVID but welcoming and has light eats.

Nice to look at although you cannot go into the grounds. I think you can rent it through the Landmark Trust. Woodsford Castle is a rare survivor of one side of a medieval fortified manor house. Standing near the River Frome the thatched roof is reputed to be the largest in Dorset. There is a convenient to pull in to have look.

Lulworth is a tiny village that hides a large castle behind the tall trees of the surrounding park. Lulworth Castle was built in 1610 as a hunting lodge. After the French Revolution, this was one of the places where members of the French royal family who had escaped the guillotine found a safe haven. In 1929 it was destroyed by a fire. Nearly 70 years later, it had been restored and opened to the public.
