This new, thoroughly updated fourth edition of Dorset (Slow Travel), Bradt's popular and distinctive guide, offers in-depth exploration of one of England's most popular counties. Author Alexandra Richards, Dorset born and bred, shares local insights to offer a wider, more personal selection of places to explore than any other guide, including attractions known only to locals, who normally keep the county's treasures to themselves. The result encourages you to slow down and appreciate why this county deserves repeat visits.

Dorset is quintessential rural England: rolling hills, thatched houses, winding lanes and stunning stately homes. Enchanting Dorset landscapes described in Thomas Hardy's 19th-century novels are largely unchanged and are likely to remain so given that Dorset enjoys England's highest proportion of conservation areas. The county is trimmed by the spectacular Jurassic Coast (starring locations such as Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove), England's first natural World Heritage Site, whose cliffs are continuously revealing their prehistoric, fossilised secrets.

History buffs, meanwhile, will love innumerable sites of archaeological interest, including Britain's largest Iron Age hillfort, Maiden Castle. Practical information covers where and what to eat, where and what to see, and how to get around. This fourth edition: integrates recent changes across the county; covers additional villages in north Dorset; celebrates child-friendly activities; introduces local food and drink producers, artisans and community projects; and suggests new walks.

Discover Dorset's award-winning vodka made from milk; discover what really goes on at the Filly Loo Festival; challenge your tastebuds at the Great Dorset Chilli Festival; hunt fossils on beaches featured in the biopic film Ammonite, where Kate Winslet portrays world-famous palaeontologist Mary Anning; learn where never to say the word 'rabbits' (and why); discover the Lyme Regis rubber duck race; and get to grips with the fabulous Dorset dialect. Whatever your interest, be it local food, tours of award-winning wineries, horseriding, relaxing on award-winning beaches or spectacular coastal hikes, Dorset (Slow Travel) remains the essential companion guide for both enjoying the obvious sites and getting off the beaten track to understand what really makes this gorgeous, varied county tick.

The United Kingdom may be geographically small, but it is so packed with touristic sites that it needs to be broken down into logical units to be manageable. This is the first of several maps we will be publishing of England at 1:250,000 scale, covering Southeast England from Dover to Southampton north to Luton on Side 1 and from Colchester to Coventry north to Sheffield and Boston; essentially all of SE England from the Channel to Derbyshire and west to the Isle of Wight.

Even at this scale, there is only room to show major attractions without creating clutter. Both road and rail routes are clearly shown, with rapid-rail routes shown in red. This latter feature is not included on most other maps, an one notes with a bit of surprise that this part of England has more such routes than is generally believed to exist. We travelled on one of these trains during our recent visit to the UK (albeit from Newcastle to Edinburgh) and they are quite an improvement! Whether by train or by road, all options are shown. Whether one wishes to visit Hever Castle in Kent or Winchester cathedral, or the university cities of Cambridge or Oxford, this is an ideal map for exploring one of the most touristic corners of Europe.
