You will be staying at YHA Swanage in the town of the same name. Be prepared to be transported back to the wonderous childhood adventures of Enid Blyton's "Famous Five" or, for us, more like "Famous Twenty!"
"Below them spread the Dorset countryside, shimmering in the heat of the day, the distance almost lost in a blue haze." EB
