If you are that way also consider Swanage ! You have Studland bay with wonderful beach, Brownsea Island (you should know about that! Is easily accessible) Get the steam train to Corfe Castle which is very pretty. Durdle door as well !
We stayed that way a few times as children and loved it

Coming to the island feels like going overseas because of the ferry.So this was my original thought when I was thinking of Bournemouth! I've been Brownsea Island once before and it was lovely to see all the linked history! So IoW or Bournemouth
Would be lovely to get overseas somewhere, but it's just so expensive in school holidays, maybe next year![]()


Now if someone could just guarantee me a bit of sunshine, I don't mind a UK beach![]()
