They loved it. It was before I lived down here, so at the time it didn’t really mean anything to me. But yes, what a place to wake up!

My partner and I had a holiday in Dorset in 2009. We visited Brownsea Island among other places while we were there. A few photos of that trip are on Google Photos. (https://photos.app.goo.gl/VedGVHKN3VLSHQm97)
