Visit the Cerne Abbas Giant, one of the largest hill figures in Britain
Event: Visit the Cerne Abbas Giant
Date: All year
The Cerne Abbas Giant, one of two in the UK, has split opinion for years - is it one of the National Trust's most racy remnants of our distant pagan past or a 17th-century political caricature?
Guests at the luxury Dorset hotel Summer Lodge can decide for themselves, with a short 15 minute drive to the village of Cerne Abbas.
This huge outline sculpted into the chalk hillside is like nothing people will have seen before.
It has been used to advertise everything from jeans to bicycles, while there is a popular myth that the giant is a unique aid to fertility.
After taking a day to explore this 180-foot wonder, visitors can make their way back to the Summer Lodge and enjoy the delights of the 3 Nights for the Price of 2 package.
Along with a third night absolutely free, guests can look forward to a full English breakfast and complimentary use of the Health Club, heated indoor pool and sauna.
