A ROAD TRIP EXPERIENCE THROUGH DORSET AND DEVON, ENGLAND 

We concentrated on road tripping through this area as they have the most to offer for families in South West England. Neighboring each other, Dorset and Devon both encompass beautiful sandy beaches, jaw-dropping cliffs, fossil rich soil, and storybook medieval towns.

Lyme Regis, Dorset

Unlike the resort towns in the Italian and French Riviera, this strip of beach is a bit more rugged, the water colder and less blue, but has an honest, family.

Jurassic Coast, Dorset

This coastline where Lyme Regis is situated is named the Jurassic Coast, as it is known to have an abundance of prehistoric fossils found and to be found. 

Burton Bradstock, Dorset

If you are a fan of Thomas Hardy novels and films, treat the family to a walk along the cliffs between Bridport and Burton Bradstock. The views are nothing short of cinematic splendor provided by nature itself. 

Forde Abbey, Dorset

These counties are filled with beautiful country estates. Many have been sold back to the government, as they are too expensive to upkeep by the owners. 

Sherborne Castle, Dorset

No South West England road trip is complete without a visit to a castle. Sherborne Castle is currently the residence of the Digby Family who have been the stewards since the late 18th Century.
