Where to Stay in Dorset

20th March 2024

Dorset has always done its own thing. A wander through the countryside will take you past weird ancient monoliths and fossil-filled beaches. There are no cities, no motorways, just beautiful landscape and some of England's prettiest villages.

You'll also find some stunning places to stay. Treehouses with hot tubs on the roof and slides to the ground, houses overlooking the sea and button-cute thatched cottages. Choose your dream Dorset hideaway here.
