The Dorset Holiday Specialists

A walk around Studland Bay with its miles of sandy beach and along the cliff tops to Old Harry Rocks and back again. On the way you pass Fort Henry where Winston Churchill watched preparations for the D-Day landings. This walk can be extended to link up to the Agglestone Rock walk.

A ridgeway walk with the benefit of magnificent coastal views without the effort of walking uphill first. It then drops down to the picturesque village of Abbotsbury with its abbey remains, swannery and sub-tropical gardens.

Take a walk along the dramatic cliffs and abandoned quarries to Portland Bill with its three lighthouses, one of which is open to the public. Along the way, watch out for migratory seabirds and pods of dolphins. The seas can be dramatic at The Bill where currents meet to form the Portland Races.

An interesting walk through some of Dorset's most environmentally important heathland, passing the mysterious Agglestone Rock on the way which was, according to local legend, thrown by the devil himself from the Isle of Wight, falling short of Corfe Castle.

A short walk over the finest Ironage hillfort in Dorset. Expect a stiff climb to the top but the views over the Blackmore Vale are worth it!

Starting at Thomas Hardy's birthplace and ending at Stinsford where his heart lies buried, this walk takes in a section of the heathland which he knew and loved so well.

An interesting walk from Melbury Osmond through the parkland of the magnificent Melbury House (not open to the public but can be viewed from the drive en route) and then on to the village of Evershot with its wonderful pub, The Acorn Inn.

The picture-postcard village of Milton Abbas with its thatched cottages was built when the owner of nearby Milton Abbey decided that he didn't like looking at the villagers, so flooded their village and re-built it around the corner. Stroll through the village and visit its medieval abbey, as well St. Catherine's Chapel hidden in woodland nearby and maybe finishing with a pint in the village's thatched inn.

Lower Kingcombe Farm was bought by the Dorset Wildlife Trust nearly forty years ago to protect this unspoilt and nature-diverse plot of rural Dorset. The farm had never been worked with modern farming methods and abounds with wild flowers and butterflies in spring and early summer. The River Hooke runs through the reserve.

Explore the ancient village of Cerne Abbas with its eponymous giant, beautiful medieval church, tudor houses and magical Silver Well. The village has connections to George Washington, whose uncle lived in the village and the ancestors of the pilgrims who first owned Capitol Hill.
