SWANAGE IS A SMALL coastal town with a big character, and its position at the gateway to the famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast makes it a perfect base to explore the Purbeck landscape. With its wide sandy beaches, safe bathing, steam train, historic pier and stone quay, Swanage has a lot to offer old and young alike. And with Carnival Week, the annual Jazz, Blues and Folk Festivals, and a new Walking Festival, the town has a liveliness throughout the year.
And everything is so close at hand. The ancient ruins of Corfe Castle, Monkey World, the Tank Museum at Bovington, small coves, fossil-rich beaches, quarried caves, towering cliffs and sea-worn arches: the whole of the Purbeck is always breathtaking and all within a half hour drive from Swanage through unspoilt countryside.
