Dorchester is a quintessential English town, with a charming medieval core surrounded by Georgian streets. The highlight is the Borough Gardens, a mix of formal gardens and wild meadows, while the town’s many churches include the magnificent 12th-century church of St Peter and St Paul. There are several good pubs and restaurants, and for a touch of luxury, the sumptuous Maiden Castle Hotel. Dorchester is also the gateway to the Jurassic Coast, a 95-mile World Heritage Site of stunning coastal scenery.
