There are plenty of historic buildings and manors in Dorset, but Pilsdon Manor is special. This 17th century house is now home to the Pilsdon Community, a Christian organisation that provides shelter for those experiencing hardships. Those who need some time out from the difficulties of everyday life can stay at the house and enjoy a serene space to recover and enjoy the room to think and relax.

This Iron Age hillfort is the smaller cousin of Lambert’s Castle, a little to the north. With ancient woodland and a fantastic spring bluebell display, Coney’s Castle is a peaceful little summit and one of numerous such hillforts in the area. Check out the earthwork ramparts on the north, south and east sides. The western edge used the natural slope of the hill as a defense. Managed by the National Trust, this hillfort is free to roam around and served by a car park. Its only downside is that there’s a road right through the middle of it.
