Stunning, simply stunning

The Old Forge is the most idyllic place to stay in Dorset. The welcome you receive is wonderful and the cleanliness of the place is impeccable. The small hamlet of Wraxall is peaceful and good for the soul. Excellent links to the A37 and A356. Definitely a place we will be staying in again.
