Maiden castle, the Roman fort sits on the outskirts and is an enjoyable walk. Bridport is around 15 miles away and has a much-coveted antiques and collectables market, as well as many independent shops and cafes’. A short 1 miles drive from Bridport is West Bay, the seaside Harbour village, famous for it’s role in ITV’s Broadchurch series. As well as seeing many of the now famous locations used, be sure to enjoy local fish and chips on the harbourside and an ice cream on the seafront.
