    I live along the jurassic coast and in an area of outstanding natural beauty my cottage has no houses front or back just rolling hills and at the rear veiws over the sea. Feel so lucky.

    My aunt lived in Charmouth for a while, and when we would visit the UK we would stay there for a few weeks at a time. It's one of my favorite places in the UK. I have fond memories as a child looking for fossils along the beach. It was so much fun. Thanks for this great video!

    I 'discovered' Dorset about 15 years ago. I saw a photo of Durdle Door and wanted to see for myself. I have revisited every year since. The coast is magnificent, from Lyme Regis to Studland (though give Bournemouth and Poole a miss). Inland Dorset is lovely too. Swanage is my base of choice, these days.
    Nicely presented, Alex.

    • @AlexTravels1

    Could you tell us how you traveled between the locations? Was there an easily available bus or did you need a car?

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1  Před 2 lety +1

      I believe there are buses along all the main routes heading to all popular locations (90% of places in this video are accessable) the only things you may have trouble getting to by bus is Spyway Dino Prints and Old Harry Rocks. We were exploring by car. Hope that helps!

    Hi loved the video but I am unable to find the spyway dinosaur tracks. How can I get to them

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1  Před rokem

      They were a bit of a challenge to find, we used google maps, they are listed on there as National Trust - Spyway, you can park at a small free car park called Acton Lane Car Park and walk for around 15 minutes from there. You can't see them until you're right next to them as they're down in a ditch with very few signposts. Hope that helps!

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1  Před 6 měsíci

      Hi, Thanks for watching! I believe there are trains that can take you to the bigger towns in Dorset such as Weymouth and Bournemouth, and then buses/coaches to reach the smaller coastal beauty spots such as Lulworth Cove. I'm sure there are also organised tours that will likely head to many of the spots we visited in this video. Hope that helps!

      You can Walk from Durlde Door to Lukworth Cove in around 1 and a half hours, so everything in between those 2 can see with no car. But the rest are further away, the Isle of Portland is probably the furthest away at around 40 minutes by car
