The museum on Gold Hill was interesting and had very helpful and friendly staff. Not much else to see in town though...
4/5 - Good

Nice little town on the hill but this cottage is actually just south of there in Fontmell Magna, which is a quintessential English village complete with thatched houses, pub and shop. About 45 min from the sea at Studland Bay and Lulworth Cove.
