The National Trust
The National Trust play a big part in the HiveBeach café as they own the building and the car park, there is ample parking for £3.50 all day or free to NT members.
Bob and his NT landrover are often here and he will be more than happy to talk you through the cost and the advantages of being a National Trust member, I can think of one good reason – The Hive Café.

Jurassic Coast Quality Business Scheme
As part of South West Regional Development Agency’s (SWRDA) investment package for the Jurassic Coast – £7.1million in principle – the Quality Business Scheme has been launched to encourage and recognise individual businesses for their part in the quality tourism offering.
By successfully demonstrating a range of good business practices, a working knowledge of the Jurassic Coast, environmental awareness and a commitment to staff and visitor satisfaction, tourism outlets throughout the area can become a Jurassic Coast Quality
Business.
‘The reputation of the Jurassic Coast is gaining in momentum with many of our international visitors now putting it on their ‘tick-list’, said Tim Sanders. ‘UNESCO World Heritage Status sets a high expectation in visitors’ minds, both of the site itself and its local services and products. The framework set out by the Quality Business Scheme is a
great way to check what you’re doing right – and what you’re doing wrong and help were improvements are needed’.
