Studland Village – Dorset – England
Not so far away from Corfe Village, this is another tiny village in the coastal Dorset. I have been here so many times but I made an effort to take some pictures just for you. 🙂
This village is quite quaint. Filled with cottages built on Purbeck limestone, a few with thatched roof. There is one pub, a village shop and a church. It is a 5 minutes away from a thin long beach, that when the tide is out you can walk to Old Harry. One of England’s famous natural sites, it marks the most easterly point of the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Ah that reminds me that I need to talk about the Jurassic Coast. That is fascinating. Anyway here are some pictures of the village to feast your eyes on.
The village pub and inn. There is a National trust cottage in front of this pub that is available for people to rent.
The view from the pub garden.
You can buy Purbeck Ice cream in this shop. Which is a locally produced ice cream.
Village cemetery
The beach 5 minutes walk from the pub.
On the beach there is a small food and drink hut you can get patties, homemade cake and tea and coffee from, called Joe’s Cafe. Joe also have a bucket full of beach toys children can borrow.
I don’t think there is any bus that goes to the place, I would recommend hiring a car if you want to go and stay. Taxis are hard to come by. The bus in these villages is a few far in between.:) There is a running joke that you can get the bus every Wednesday at 7am, only.
Is there such place near you? Have you been?
Kenapaaa luar negeri keliatannyaaa baguuuus banget ya :’
Ah Indonesia lebih bagus kOk. 🙂 luar negeri sedikit berbeda saja.
Iya sih ya, kita memandang keindahan luar negeri itu luar biasa. tapi orang luar memandang keindahan indonesia itu luar biasa juga 😀
Betul! 🙂
Ahhh pressed to quickly, sorry! Haha..
But i’ve never been to the village! Really pretty!
Jurassic coast kan panjang, 95 miles, hahaha dari mana kemana perginya ta? Ambil fosil gak?
Aku dari Bournemouth yang jalur turis normalnya aja, pertama kali ikut tur dari kampus, yang kedua kali naik angkutan umum tapi susah banget aku lupa gimana, pokoknya nyambung naik kereta + bus trus ke lulworth cove juga.. bagus juga ya lulworth cove 🙂
nggak ambil fosil.. bisa yaa?
Lulworth cove. Iya. Bisa tapi harus ke pantai specific. Pernah ke bridport?
Oooo gitu, wah coba tau dari dulu hehe. Belum pernah, disana ada apa?
Iya. Bisa berburu fosil. Nanti aku kasih lihat photo2 kalau kebetulan lagi jalan ke pantai2 itu. 🙂
Been to Jurassic Coast twice while I lived in Bournemouth. One of my favorite places! 🙂
gosh, they all look so cute! i can almost feel the relaxed atmosphere from the pics alone. ❤ lovely!
so when did you take these pics? i'm curious because it's already looking so green over there! *envious*
I took it Last weekend. It is definitely already spring here. 🙂 We have daffodils, crocus, snow drops etc. Signs of spring. Hohoho
rumahnya kayak di buku ceritaaaaa huhaaa
pretty 😀 reminds me of those fairy tale houses ❤
yes, it does look like fairy tale houses, doesn’t it? they are not for fairies though. 😉
The cottage with thatched roof! I always want to see it (directly). Since it is not cheap to come to England…still your beautiful pictures can entertain my eyes.
Tatched roof is everywhere in Dorset. 🙂 Plenty of them around. They are pretty, but tough to maintain. You have to change the roof every 5 – 10 years and the cost of changing them are extortionate.
Like a fairy house. I think. In Bali we have roof like that. Made from ijuk fibres. It creates cooler ‘atmosphere’ in the house.
I don’t think here they need to be cooler. Because it can get pretty cold. Tatched roof were actually an insulation to the house. 🙂
No but I know such place located up north. I don’t know whether it is a coincidence but almost every pic has yellow in it. It is a lovely vibrant colour 🙂
Yes you are right. The village seems to have taken yellow as their village colour. These are trully their cottages colour. Maybe they had buy one get one load free paint offer. hahaha! 🙂
Do you know if yellow has a purpose there? Like the houses in the village of Ronda, South Spain which are painted in white to keep it cool inside. Or perhaps it was just the painter who ordered too muchh yellow paint? 🙂
hmm maybe. I will have a look, my friend has a book about the history of the village. But these are different houses, so I am assuming they are painted by different people. 🙂
