Dorset Holiday   no comments

Posted at 12:58 pm in Nerdy Ramblings

Just got back from a marvellous relaxing two-week holiday in Dorset, and thought I’d take the opportunity to pass on some recommendations to anyone visiting the area.

Hembury Mill


Where we stayed, wonderful welcoming, tastefully renovated property with all mod cons.  Peaceful and relaxing mainly because it’s at the bottom of a valley with no mobile reception!

The Spyway Inn

Great pub only a short stagger along a public footpath from the Mill, great beer, great food, very welcoming and child friendly.

Monkeyworld

Well worth a visit to see it’s contented, well-treated colonies of monkeys, most of whom have been rescued from horrible conditions.

The Tank Museum

If you’re in to tanks in any way, this is the place for you, more tanks than you could shake a stick at.  Everything from a WWI Mark I to a Challenger 2.

Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre

If you’re wanting to hunt fossils on the Jurassic Coast then this is the place for you.  The offer an excellent fossil hunting guided walk which is virtually guaranteed to get you finding fossils.  Both my son and I came back with a pocketful!
