“Very enjoyable day out in Dorset ”
Lovely day out. We thoroughly enjoyed the boat and commentary as we sailed past Purbeck and stunning Harrys Rocks. The steam train was quaint and staff were very good. The journey to Corfe was fun and views beautiful. The timings all worked well, we caught the last. boat back after a nice late lunch on Swansge Pier. Highly recommend
“Sea cruise”
I bought the sea cruise/ steam train experience. Booked to go on it but sadly it was cancelled at last minute due to the weather. Still looking forward to rebooking this experience. The whole thing was easy to book and again very helpful when told it was cancelled.
