If you want to escape the crowds in Dorset, heading inland towards Wimborne and East Dorset can provide a quieter alternative to the county’s busiest coastal resorts. The area offers countryside walks, historic properties, rural villages and traditional pubs while still being within reach of many popular attractions. The Cockerel provides a relaxed countryside setting where visitors can enjoy food away from busy tourist centres. Visiting during weekdays or outside peak holiday periods can also help you experience Dorset at a slower pace. Combining a countryside walk with lunch or dinner can be an easy way to spend a more peaceful day.
