    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.
