The entrace to the ruins of Corfe Castle is just a short walk away from the platform. A tourist information centre provides guides and maps. The train continues its journey to Harmans Cross, where you may want to stop and enjoy the scenery. At Swanage you will find all the conveniences of a modern town and a beautiful award winning beach.
