The Dorset Coast & New Forest - England
Coach Tours - 8 Days

Tour Highlights
• New Forest • Salisbury • Dorchester • Swanage • Lyndhurst • Dorset Coast and Countryside

Beautifully built amid the pinewoods, Bournemouth is so much more than just a seaside resort and an impressive array of attractions, it is one of the premier holiday centres in the country. There are two piers, two thousand acres of parks and gardens, seven miles of clean golden beaches, traffic-free shopping areas, regular military band concerts, starstudded evening entertainment and, of course, the beautiful Dorset countryside is close by too.

The Dorset Coast & New Forest - Your Excursions
FULL DAY
Our marvellous full day excursion heads off via the back roads and lanes of the New Forest, with its famous ponies and elusive deer, to the ‘Capital of the New Forest’, Lyndhurst. Here there is time to browse through the many antique shops before continuing on to historic Salisbury. Famous for its magnificent Gothic cathedral, and tallest spire in England, the grid-like streets with their blackand- white half-timbered houses and speciality shops are a joy to explore.
HALF DAY
Our half day excursion takes us to the busy market town of Dorchester, the fictional ‘Casterbridge’ in several Thomas Hardy novels. There is plenty of time to wander through the busy market place, and Hardy’s Wessex Exhibition is well worth a visit.
HALF DAY
Our half day excursion takes us to the Isle of Purbeck, past the ruins of Corfe Castle, to the little resort town of Swanage. Here there is plenty of time to explore this pretty seaside town.
