Tyneham village gate permits vehicle access. It is opened at 9am when no military activity is taking place and is closed at dusk each evening. The exhibitions in Tyneham School and Tyneham Church are open from 10am until 4pm on non-firing days.

For guests staying at Honeysuckle Cottage in West Lulworth, we thoroughly recommend the walk from Lulworth to Mupe Bay - it's about 45 minutes each way, accessible only via foot or sea. It's our favourite way to spend the afternoon.
