Dorset in December: Who says the seaside is only for the summertime?

Here are a few pictures from my trip to Dorset a couple of weeks ago. I was visiting some family who live down there and I had almost forgotten what a lovely county it is. They live on the Jurassic Coast which is home to some of the most beautiful beaches, hills and towns in England. The oldest of the cliffs date back to 250 million years ago!

I'm a massive Jane Austen-ite so this was lovely to spot.
