    Just watched this video after being in Dorset last week. Have to agree its the most beautiful part of England in my opinion and i noticed too that the birds sing the loudest here. Hopefully due to return in the spring of 2025 to enjoy the breath taking countryside and coastline of this wonderful county...LOVE IT !!

    Gorgeous place and beautiful thatched cottages and houses.
    A shame about the busy road it cannot be great for residents especially if they have their windows open.
    Great it has a castle.
    Thank you for showing it to us.

    Omg that cottage is beautiful, I was fortunate to live in a thatched cottage many years ago, they keep warm in winter and cool in hot weather and all have different vibes they are almost alive! I miss it to this day😢

    As I mentioned the other day, the area is one of my favourite southern holiday spots. I'm still there now, I never want to go home. I don't want to brag, but I got a free ice cream in Corfe last year. I still haven't got a clue why, but she was a lovely lady in the shop 😄

    Beautiful place been there loads of times as Mum lived in Swanage. You need to win the lottery to live there every thing in Corfe price wise makes your eyes water shop wise also. Next time you visit Swanage on your return trip as you head out of Swanage you bypass Herston Look for the signs to LANGTON MATRAVERS this route takes you quite up hill eventually back into Corfe its a beautiful route simply the best as you are so high up and Corfe Castle Wow Wow Wow appears out of no where. Its a very narrow road in some places and very winding as you drop down & down but a stunning view.

    Hi, I live in Corfe Castle and I think you have done a great job. I think I would have included the steam railway station which is such a major attraction, but over all you certainly captured the spirit of of the village.

    Wonderful video, visited here for just a few hours in 2018. Had a wonderful cream tea just below the castle, I think it was part of the National Trust. I told myself I must come back to spend more time and your video confirms my idea! Thanks again, great video. 😊

    I have fond memories from a few years ago visiting Corfe via steam train from Swanage but the thing I remember most was the vast number of cyclists in the village at the time, there were literally hundreds I had never seen so many in one place, and they were all the colourful lycra brigade ones as well 🤣🤣🤣

    I'm going to ask a stupid question here. At 5.46 and again at 13.44, a chimney is shown directly above a door. I know it should mean a fireplace directly below, but it means all that weight of the stack above a door? It just looks odd.

    It is a nice place but the road through the centre is solid traffic. A place I avoid.
