Badgers are one of Britain's best loved creatures but despite their charm and popularity, few people ever get a chance to watch one in the wild.
Badger Watch Dorset at Old Henley Farm near Dorchester offers an unsurpassed opportunity to watch these enigmatic and elusive animals in comfort.
The views are reliable and spectacular, the hides are well equipped and ideal for a really intimate encounter with the 'old man of the woods'.
Rarely have I visited a facility that does such a good job of bridging the gap between human beings and the wild world.
