Please can any one help us.
We are going to Dorset soon and was wondering which naturist beaches are the most accessable for someone who is disabled and can not walk far. Also what facilities they have. This is our first time on holiday in this area.
Give the National Trust shop at Studland a call. They certainly used to have arrangements for disabled people to help them get along the beach from the shop car park to other areas, including the naturist bit. I've not been for a few years so can not say if this is still the case.
Good luck,
Ian.

Studland does have wooden walkways onto the beaches at the car park end but these end in soft sand. It would be possible to walk around the headland from the ferry end as it's a shorter walk, but you would need to use the hard sand at the water's edge. It may be better to consider using the clubs or camp sites in the area such as St. Annes, Rivendell, BDOC or Wimbourne Sun Club.
