Kirrin Castle & Vintage Train Trip
A magical, story-filled, 2-night Dorset camping trip inspired by Enid Blyton’s "Five on a Treasure Island."
Step into the pages of "Five on a Treasure Island" on this fun, story-rich two-night escape through Enid Blyton’s beloved Dorset settings.
We'll camp in Wareham as our base, so you can be guided through an adventure that blends nature, and imagination.
Day One: We board a steam train to a charming Victorian station filled with retro details, think vintage suitcases and posters, fun photo moments inspired by the Famous Five. Dinner follows at a local spot, inspired by Enid herself.
Day Two: After breakfast, we explore the legendary Kirrin Castle (Corfe Castle), wander its historic village, and enjoy its unique attractions. We'll settle for dinner and share reflection on her stories in the evening.
Day Three: After breakfast, we'll craft our own storyboard inspired by our own adventures before packing up, feeling refreshed and creatively full.
Note: All key expenses included. Full payment is required before our adventure begins, or on arrival at Somers Legacy Headquarters, before we head off.
You are simply booking to secure your space. All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Full trip details, packing list, and accessibility information available below - please review before booking.
