No canals. Grew up in Hampshire if that helps clarify things
not really, i grew up in Somerset, not sure that clarifies things either, although they did oust Bath from Somerset in the 70s
but brought in back a few years ago

Is that the one that goes "Imagine all the farmers, saving all the hay", I remember running away from that.

Well, as Devon is obviously God's Own County and Devonians are His Chosen People (beware of imitations such as the dreaded 'Yorkshire') it's obvious that Devon will win, hands down.
And, as a Dartmoor native myself, I ca safely say that Dartmoor is right up there among the country's most desirable places to set up home.
Devon: It's Not For Emmets.

How hard will all this stuff be to access from portsmouth, transport wise?

As I've just moved back to Devon, I'm well happy if everyone wants to fuck off to Dorset for holidays.

It's just a chip on Geoff's shoulder.

One mans' bit of fun is another man's tiresome drivel.
And vice versa, you moaning cunt.

Cornwall and Dorset piss me off cos they seem set up to fleece visitors of every penny. I remember stopping at a pub in Wiltshire on the way home from Dorset. Such a relief to get a decent pint and lunch without paying an arm and a leg to some Dorset rip off merchant.

blah blah blah
Not wanting to continue the Devon vs Dorset fun/sport/nonsense - but I did notice that Dorset prices and pubs were a fair bit more than round here.
Mr Bombscare - you back in sunny Tiverton?

I go to Exeter a bit with work and I think it's quite expensive.

Oi! With the poodle already
Dorset has loads to do for free You dont have to spend money, if youre prepared to look for yourself, and not do the tourist route.
The Purbecks, Cranborne Chase, Kimmeridge and Dancing Ledge, Wareham Forest, all knock the spots off Dartmoor....
My sister lives in Cornwall and seems to have rain all the time. Its been rather fun comparing cloudage with her this summer.

As I said - I like both. Dorset does have some nice places. But in scale, scope and variety I don't think Dorset can match Devon. Isle of Purbeck is lovely. But less than half the size of Exmoor. Cranbourne Chase is also a scenic and pleasant area - but no nicer than the South Hams, with less nice villages and towns. Dancing Ledge and surrounding coast is up there with the best bits of English coastline - but easily matched by the south Devon coast. I've not been to Wareham Forest - but I can't believe for a minute that it can compete with Dartmoor which is almost 400 square miles and has examples of ancient cloud forest.

That'd be the sheep shit.

I hear ya
I kind of prefer Dorset, but that's for a variety of reasons - childhood holidays/familiarity mostly.
Having said that, Idaho's probably right that Devon's got more than Dorset in many ways, but then it probably helps if you spend a lot of time there. Dorset packs some stunning scenery into some very (road-)accesible areas, whereas my abiding impression of Devon is of endless journeys on narrow lanes. Some beautiful places when you get to the end of them, it just seems to take ages to get there

Dorset is beautiful where ever you go
And the rain in the summertime
Makes the wurzel bush grow
And it's pleasant to sit in the thunder and the hail
With your girlfriend
On a turnip clamp, to hear the sweet nightingale
