  • We’re spending a few days exploring and enjoying all that Dorset has to offer, along the south coast of England.
    We stay in Corfe Castle, a picturesque village in Dorset, dating back to the 11th century! We discover Corfe Castle from both East and West Hill, we walk through the village’s streets and finally visit Corfe Castle’s village station, hoping to see a steam train. Join us as we go back in time!
    We occasionally get asked what equipment and stuff we use on our travels. We have listed below a selection of items we use, including links -

    Fantastic photo shot at 1:44 using the archway as a frame. Wow you caught the steam train at the perfect moment at 2:55. Nice the well was restored. This village has a lot of character.

    Obscure fact: Corfe Castle was the inspiration for Kirrin island in Enid Blyton’s Famous Five books. The author had many holidays in Dorset (up to three a year) and owned Manor Farm at Stourton Caundle near Sturminster Newton, which she would visit when in the area. This farm was the inspiration for the Famous Five book ‘Five on Finniston Farm’.

    Love these cute little ancient towns and villages! So much history! And then you add the steam train (going from several hundred years to more "recent" history. You are right, those views from the hills are stunning. How long did it take to climb? Are those sheep some type of historic variety raised there?
