7 days tour

Jewels Of The Jurassic Coast Walk

This tour includes:

Meals

Full English breakfasts are included; with so many dining options on your doorstep, we've left other meals up to you. Dorset has a long history of farming and fishing and the choice and freshness of the local seafood is spectacular. Other local produce comes from the lush pastures and fertile agricultural land and there are more and more local farm shops and farmers markets offering foodie delights from fruit and vegetables straight from the garden to freshly baked pies, bread, organic meats and plenty of other treats such as Dorset Knob biscuits, Portland Dough Cakes and tongue-tingling Dorset Naga chillies! Dorset is also home to some of the UK's best independent breweries and a handful of vineyards that produce some excellent beer, cider and wine (still and sparkling).
