Wool is in the heart of the Purbeck region and provides easy access to everything the Purbecks have to offer. Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are only 5 minutes drive away as is Monkey World and Bovington Tank museum. Wareham, Dorchester, Weymouth and Poole are easily accessed by train or car and the Mainline station to London station is only a 5 minute walk away. There is a bus stop directly outside the cottage that takes visitors around the Purbeck region and there are number of trusted taxi firms we can recommend if needed. We have three pubs in the village, The Black Bear, The Ship and The Severn Stars that serve food and there is a SPAR mini mart 100 yards from the cottage, we also have a bakers and chinese takeaway close by. If you fancy going further afield Wareham has a good selection of pubs and restaurants and a lovey Quayside with two pubs an Italian restaurant. A visit to Wareham Quay is highly recommended and its only 7 mins by car or train, there are also boats to hire on the river and river trips every 30 mins. The beaches at Swanage, Studland and Weymouth are very popular but for the more adventurous there are secluded beaches at Mupe Bay, Worbarrow Bay.
