Not just a traditional seaside resort, Bournemouth is a city so has a huge range of shops, entertainment, and amenities. It makes for the perfect base from which to explore historic Salisbury and pretty Weymouth
Please choose your preferred 5 day itinerary
Local departure by coach or Home Connect service, then on to the Sands Hotel, Bournemouth for four nights.
Visit the beautiful city of Salisbury. Home to an abundance of historic buildings, be sure to take in the majestic cathedral, which boasts Britain’s tallest spire standing at a breathtaking 123 metres.
The city retains much of its medieval centre, with a delightful market square and traditional shopping streets that are easy to explore on foot.
Today why not relax in Bournemouth or join our optional excursion to visit the Isle of Purbeck & Swanage.
We will pass through quaint Corfe Castle to reach seaside Swanage. Here there’s a lovely, sandy beach and lots of attractions, such as the Swanage Museum which tells the story of the area from the Jurassic period to WWII. Up to the early 19th century, Swanage was a small fishing port, however the arrival of the railway meant it developed as a seaside resort and it retains much of its Victorian elegance today.
The optional excursions will be available to book during your tour.
Prices are per person and are subject to change. Payment will be in sterling (cash payments only).
Today we enjoy an included excursion to pretty Weymouth. With golden sandy beaches, shallow waters and picturesque harbourside there is plenty to see and do in this popular seaside resort. Wander around the beautiful historic harbour to see luxury yachts, tall ships and fishing trawlers. You might be lucky enough to see the opening of Weymouth Town Bridge. Enjoy some fresh seafood for lunch or browse the independent shops.
Return home.
You will stay for four nights at the Bournemouth Sands Hotel in Bournemouth.

Holiday was fine but the accommodation was very disappointing. I have stayed at the Sands Hotel Bournemouth before. At that time the food was great and the room a little tired looking. Now the food is mediocre and the room was miserable. I would certainly travel with Shearings again, but never again at the Sands Hotel.

Travel, drivers and excursions were excellent. Hotel entertainment and staff were good. Bit hotel was shabby, no safety bars in shower, loose towel bar in bathroom and socket in bedroom. Food was dreadful, no tiered servings. Everyone crammed in at the same time. We went out to dinner after the first night.
