WALKS IN DORSET at PILSDON PEN (4K)

[@carolpaterson122]

Thank you Dave. Reluctantly moved back to Australia from New Forest 2 years ago to be near my kids. Still homesick and missing my forest walks. These videos are much appreciated. Love Logan such a calm well behaved dog.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you. Yes, Logan is a good lad.

[@stephenlarking2247]

The biggest compliment I can pay you Dave is that it feels like I’ve been on the walk with you & Logan after watching one of your videos. Another lovely one, thanks.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Stephen. There were some stunning views on that walk and we were lucky with the weather.

[@JimNicholls]

Another good one. Thanks, Dave!

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Jim. There were some great views on that one!

Hello Dave and Logan. Greetings from NZ! I stumbled across your channel a few days ago, and my wife and I have been immersing ourselves in your videos. We were in Dorset for a few days at the start of 2023. We stayed at King's Stag and took the opportunity to visit Stour Provost, from where one of my wife's ancestors emigrated to NZ in 1840. Do you know Stour Provost? It is a delightful, quiet village, with a lovely church dating from the early 1300s, and a beautiful old mill. And it has the river, of course. Keep up good work. All the best.

A thoroughbred, a thoroughbred, my kingdom for a thoroughbred! I'll wait for you at the top, Mr Logan. Then we can both wait for yer mate, Dave. The tracks on the chalk hills take me back. I'm posibly too rusty these days. Maybe on a Fjord pony to start with, that would be fun. Thank you both!

[@DaveFord]

Yes, a trusty horse would certainly make things easier for my knees!

[@melissaphillips3088]

Just a lovely walk and so pretty there Dave. It gives one a since of peace. Thank you and Logan for making my day so much brighter. 👏🏻☀️

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Melissa. :)

[@melissaphillips3088]

@@DaveFord you are welcome Dave . Take care and give Logan a extra hug from me for being such a good boy☀️

[@LynnB_Ky]

That was a lovely walk Dave. So nice to see the horse cantering up the hill. You are very fit climbing all the way up there and Logan is such a lovely calm dog walking along with you there. Lovely Church too. Thank you for bringing this part of the country to us 🥰

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Lynn. I am not sure about my fitness levels though .... you don't get to see all the "pit stops" that get edited out of the video!

[@LynnB_Ky]

@@DaveFord Haha, but you made it up there and what a view. I enjoyed watching very much

[@craigmarsh3221]

Just stunning views suburb video already looking forward to the next one thank you Dave.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Craig. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@petecollings4581]

Hi Dave ivy done that work 20 yes ago it was lovely

[@eldred1809]

Poor old Logan didn't get his crisps at the end Dave, despite all that uphill effort! Hope you managed to sort that out on the way home, I would've recommended the Bottle Inn at Marshwood, but last time I passed it was closed. Another one bites the dust!. Yet another glorious Dorset day, I'm so envious. Keep 'em coming.

[@DaveFord]

Thanks. A lot of climbing on that one but worth it for the views!

[@kevinedw2002]

Another wonderful video. Thank you - they really do make my day (even if they also make me homesick!)

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Kevin & indeed thank you for watching.

[@gparry42]

A glorious walk Dave ! Thanks very much !

[@DaveFord]

thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@ianmccaughan7121]

Thanks for this one Dave .Pilsdon is a Dorset hidden jem .I feel for you knowing how steep the valley is down to Pilsdon .If you go from Bridport ,the alington road to Pilsdon look out for Washingpool farm shop as you can get a lovely meal and food to buy there .

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Ian and indeed thank you for the food recommendation.

[@decimustv4257]

You might consider St Aldens walk in Dorset. There are some spectacular parts like sheer ridges, huge stone steps and a small church. Google it, if you are interested.

[@DaveFord]

Ah yes, we passed along there on our walk from Worth Matravers. A spectacular area for sure. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqfZh5aYmsSCfKc

@@DaveFord Ok cool I will check that video out :)

[@decimustv4257]

You know your stuff 😅. You inspired me and my partner to do some interesting walks this summer.

[@DaveFord]

I hope that you get some good weather for your walks.

[@rogerwilkes9704]

Thank you Hannu. :)

[@martincannon1078]

At 2min 46 the trees on Colmer's Hill take the form of a dog looking to the left with it's tail on the right. No I haven't been drinking Dave! Let me know if anyone else sees it like that please.

[@AnyoneForToast]

Dog sort of spotted. I see an alligators head, looking left, rising from the water. 🐊

[@DaveFord]

Oh yes .... I see what you mean!

[@lionelmarytravels6003]

Thanks for that lovely walk Dave. Beautiful views all round. Pretty church, but did you say 4 services each day? They must be very religious down there!

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Lionel. Yes, I believe that the church is well used.

[@simon-oy6um]

I think bulbarrow hill is the highest you can see hardyies monument on a good day 😊

[@DaveFord]

Lewesdon Hill is recorded as being 279m high (915 ft), Pilsdon Pen at 277m (900 ft) and Bulbarrow Hill at 274M (899ft). All great places to catch a view of the surrounding countryside.

[@simon-oy6um]

@@DaveFord whats 16 ft to old dorset men 😁
