Take It In: this stunning part of the world is luxury found in few other locations and the start of 15 glorious miles of idyllic coastline with award-winning beaches and Blue Flags aplenty. A watersports-lover’s haven amid rolling Purbeck hills you’ll be sure to find that breath of fresh air and well-deserved pampered break-away.
