Welcome to Dorset Allsorts

We'll be posting a variety of facts and photos of whatever takes our fancy as we wander around Dorset. They may be of churches, buildings, visitor attractions or natural scenes – in fact there will be all sorts! We hope they will give you a glimpse of some of the sights this beautiful county has to offer.

The Great Dorset Steam Fair

This event is perhaps the biggest of it's kind in the world and has to be seen to be believed.  It's an old cliche, but there really is something for everyone.  The annual event lasts five days, always at the end of August so the August Bank Holiday can be used.  Traffic chaos is a given so be prepared, although it is worth it.  This year adult tickets were £22 although half day tickets can be bought.  Buying in advance gets you a discount too.  If you do one thing before you die... well at least put it on your bucket list!
