Southampton Cruise Terminal-London via Jurassic Coast Line

About this experience

Your day begins with a relaxing one‑hour drive from Southampton to the magnificent ruins of Corfe Castle, one of England’s most iconic medieval fortresses. Here you can enjoy a self‑guided exploration of the castle grounds, taking in sweeping views across the Purbeck countryside.
We then continue to the dramatic coastline of Portland Bill, home to its famous working lighthouse. If you wish, you can climb the internal staircase for a unique vantage point over the English Channel.
Our journey then takes us to the breath taking Jurassic Coast, where you’ll visit both Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. This stretch of coastline offers some of the most spectacular scenery in the UK, and you’ll have the opportunity to walk between the two landmarks and enjoy unforgettable views.
After a full day of discovery, we will make our way back to London.
This is a self‑guided tour, giving you the freedom to explore each location at your own pace.

Leave Southampton to travel to your 1st stop Corfe Castle - travel time 80 mins

Corfe Castle is a fortification standing above the village of the same name on the Isle of Purbeck peninsula in the English county of Dorset. Built by William the Conqueror, the castle dates to the 11th century and commands a gap in the Purbeck Hills on the route between Wareham and Swanage. The first phase was one of the earliest castles in England to be built at least partly using stone when the majority were built with earth and timber.
Corfe Castle underwent major structural changes in the 12th and 13th centuries.
