The 200 acres transform into a shady sanctuary of tranquility during summertime. In particular, the Iris, Herbaceous, Sundial and Centenary Gardens bloom at this time of year. The gardens were created by Lionel de Rothschild in 1919 with herbaceous perennials and exotic flowers. The family are still involved today. There is a restaurant which is excellent but can be busy, It is lovely to take a picnic and eat out surrounded by unsurpassed beauty. The drive through the New Forest is an added bonus.

This is a quaint village nestling in the Purbeck Hills.There is a spectacular ruin of a castle. This castle has a long history. For example this is where an ancient King, Edward the Martyr, was stabbed to death by his wicked stepmother.

Brownsea Island is a must on your visit. Get a ferry from Poole /Sandbanks, it is a short trip across. The castle is out of bounds to the public but there is lots to see and lovely walks. Thee is a National Trust shop and tea house also.
This is island where Baden Powel held the first Boy scout camp over 100 years ago. You can walk around the island. It has beautiful vistas of the harbour. See if you can spot the red squirrels, the deer and the peacocks.

City/town information
Bournemouth
Great to wander through the gardens. Go on the Big Wheel. Zip on the zip wire.
A small Saxon town. You can walk on a large section of the original wall built by Alfred the great. There is nothing nicer than to sit by the river, and watch the ducks. Or hire a canoe.
If you are feeling rich, treat yourself to afternoon tea at the Priory Hotel. You won’t be disappointed.
It is 30 minutes drive away.
