Just outside the town is the train station with mainline trains to London Waterloo. There is also a market every Saturday. Corfe Castle and the steam train link to Swanage on the coast is all a short distance away.
Directions
The town is a traditional layout with North, South, West and East Street meeting at a cross roads in the centre of town marked by traffic lights. Simply follow North Street from this point 200m north and the property fronts the street on the east side of the road.
