The A35 through Dorset becomes congested on summer Fridays and weekends with holiday traffic heading to Swanage and Poole. Your driver knows alternative routes through Wimborne if needed. Swanage gets busy during steam railway events and the annual folk festival in July.
The final approach into Swanage drops down steep hills with stunning views across Poole Bay. Let your driver know if you want to stop at Corfe Castle viewpoint for photos. Swanage seafront parking fills quickly in summer, so provide your exact drop-off address when booking.
