Hi, I’m Matt, a Dorset native, keen walker and lover of foraged food. Having hiked on four continents. I can proudly say Dorset sits up there with the best for its landscape and feel.

Whether that’s iconic coastal stretches, or the much quieter inland of heath, chalk downs and an agrarian landscape, weaved through by country lanes and hidden walking paths.

There’s no motorway in Dorset, and to some extent, it hasn’t changed since its favourite son, Thomas Hardy, wrote of and was shaped by its features.
