Hi. I'm visiting somerset and dorset this summer and have just noticed the route is via zigzag hill south of Shaftsbury. Has anyone any suggestions for a route from clevedon in somerset to Horton in dorset suitable for towing. There doesn't appear to be a ban on towing on this hill, would be interested to know if anyone uses it or the best way of avoiding it without a large detour.

brentbill – just for info in case you decide to use route slightly west of Zig Zag through Melbury Abbas (Dinah’s Hollow} It has tight narrow corners where vehicles have become jammed even though it has traffic lights and has now been worked on. The rest of that road is good to Blandford Forum. Personally, for towing, I would use A350 between Shaftsbury and Blandford Forum especially at busy times of day. You can Google Dinah’s Hollow, Melbury Abbas for info.
