Visit Dorset Blog (December 2017) - Visit Dorset

January is the perfect time to start filling those blank diary pages with exciting plans for days out with friends, a week of fun with the family, or a short break to a corner of Dorset that you haven’t seen before. Here are a selection of events and festivals that will help you keep one simple New Year’s Resolution: explore more of our wonderful county in 2018.

Sherborne already has something of a Christmassy atmosphere embedded in the stones of many of its buildings.

When the cold begins to take its toll, nothing awakens your senses and gets you into the swing of the festive season like a punchy Christmassy cocktail.

To any dog thinking of visiting Dorset, I say ‘what are you waiting for?’ There are so many lovely places to visit, it really is doggy heaven!
