Much of the surrounding area is designated as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty and incorporates a World Heritage Coastline. There are a wealth of dramatic coastal walks nearby, with Kimmeridge Bay and the stunning Lulworth Cove only a few miles away. Parts of Church Knowle date back Centuries with many buildings of historic interest, alongside modern additions which have been sensitively integrated into the village.
