Dorset, the county of the Jurassic Coast, Bournemouth and Weymouth. The county of Thomas Hardy, the Great Dorset Steam Fair and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty
Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch make a delightful trio of towns along the south coast of Dorset. Weymouth and Portland are the start or finish of the Jurassic Coast. Dorchester is the capital of the county - Thomas Hardy is its favourite son. Maiden Castle is not far away. Sherborne, with its Abbey is a lovely spot. Dorset is a county of beautiful farmland and small lanes that just say come and look. What about visiting the Great Dorset Steam Fair at Tarrant Hinton for something different and interesting.
