                <description><![CDATA[Offering a natural haven to red squirrels and deer - so no dogs allowed - Brownsea is 500 acres of woodland with trails in the middle of Poole Harbour. The walking is easy and there are great views of Studland and the Purbeck hills, and on a clear day you can just about see some of  the world's most expensive houses at Sandbanks. Brownsea is where Baden Powell started the Scout movement (100 yrs ago this summer). Take the yellow ferry from Sandbanks quay (£4.50 or £12.50 for a family (2+3) and then the National Trust entrance fee is £4.70 for adults £2.30 for kids. <a target="_new" href="http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk">www.nationaltrust.org.uk</a>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Corfe Castle is a story-book medieval ruin, set on a hillock above a village on Dorset's Isle of  Purbeck - not, in fact, an island, but a peninsular. You could easily spend a couple of hours in the castle and its surroundings,  but if the children  have enough energy  afterwards, you could combine it with a walk over Ballard Down to  Swanage (about 5 miles, so take snacks to keep them going). While you wouldn't describe this seaside town as sleepy - chip shops on every corner - there's still something wonderfully old-fashioned about the place, epitomised by the steam railway, which runs up and down the coast, and will get you back to Corfe Castle in about 15 minutes.]]></description>
