Small group tours of Thomas Hardy Country.

Step out of the pages of Thomas Hardy's novels and into the countryside of Dorset's most famous writer. Explore the life, loves and literature of Hardy and see the cottage where he was born, the home he designed - Max Gate - and the churchyard where he is buried. Visit Tess of the D'Urbervilles Vale of the Great Dairies and hear readings from Hardy's novel and poems in the rich tones of your guide, Alistair Chisholm.
