The Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is a nationally important landscape. The Dorset AONB Partnership works to conserve and enhance, promote and provide access to this beautiful and uniquely varied landscape. Find out more about our work.

We will help make sure that our special landscapes are handed to future generations in good shape. We can’t do this alone – working with landowners, local communities and specialist organisations is vital for success.

The Dorset AONB Management Plan is a shared vision for its future and policies that help guide the partnership and others to look after this special place. The Management Plan is widely consulted upon and lasts for 5 years. Read our Management Plan 2019-2024 >
