ELWORTH HAMLET
Elworth, is an ancient farming hamlet near to the historic village of Abbotsbury, the swannery, sub-tropical gardens and the Jurassic World Heritage Coast. Weymouth and Portland, the venue for the 2012 Olympic sailing events, are within 15kms. The hamlet is surrounded by farms with footpaths in all directions; the Dorset Coast Path runs along the top of the ridge above the hamlet - just a few minutes walk away and you can look down over a patchwork of field systems that have scarcely changed in centuries towards a stunning panoramic vista across the seascape that stretches from Lulworth Bay, Portland, the Chesil Beach and across Lyme Bay. The unspoilt countryside is abundant with wildlife; deer, fox, badger, buzzard, kestrel, sparrow hawk, herons, bats and owls are commonly seen around the hamlet.
