Studland Village Retreat

A 1-night creative escape in the heart of Studland inspired by Enid Blyton’s “Noddy Goes to Toyland."

Reignite your sense of play and creativity on this 1-night retreat inspired by Enid Blyton’s “Noddy Goes to Toyland.”

 

Set in the charming village of Studland, said to have inspired Toyland itself, this soulful escape invites you to reconnect with fun, and the power of imagination.

Day 1: After checking into a cosy, character-filled hotel, we’ll take a relaxed walk through Studland, and learn about the villagers based on Blyton’s beloved characters.

 

After dinner, we’ll set off and chase the sunset past Old Harry Rocks, a striking chalk formation in the sea, with views of the Jurassic Coast. Just as Enid did, we can pause here and soak in the quiet beauty and reflect on the stories sparked by this magical place.

Day 2: After breakfast, we'll meander through the sand dunes to Knoll Beach, a wide, open stretch of golden shoreline known for its natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere. Here we'll have time to rest, play, and create a 'storyboard' from our own adventure.

 

The adventure closes with a final shared meal, feeling refreshed, inspired and carrying a sense of playful calm into whatever comes next.

Note: All key expenses are 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.
