Local attractions

This is the countryside that inspired Thomas Hardy’s novels – and you may find you grow fond of it too as you visit places like Dorchester (20 minutes’ drive), Kingston Maurward (25 minutes) and Hardy’s Cottage itself (25 minutes). The Jurassic Coast is close by too – with highlights being the impressive shingle strand Chesil Beach (10 minutes), the pretty village of Abbotsbury (10 minutes) with its swannery and subtropical gardens and of course the splendid sandy beach, Sea Life Centre and nature reserves of Weymouth (15 minutes). How else to fill days? Well, there are plenty of places for boat trips and watersports, plus outdoor art at Sculpture By The Lakes (35 minutes), bird of prey experiences at Dorset Falconry Park (25 minutes) and chances to step far back into the past at The Dinosaur Museum (25 minutes)…
