Overlooking the beach is Clavell Tower, a Georgian folly, built on the cliff edge. In 1975, this was the inspiration for PD James’s murder story, the Black Tower. Recently the Landmark Trust relocated and restored the Tower to prevent it falling over the cliff. It is now their most popular property and can be booked for self-catering breaks HERE. The public can visit it for free on regular open days. Please visit the Landmark website for details
Clavell's Restaurant in the village of Kimmeridge is a great place to eat and chill out.
