The Tank Museum brings history to life, with the world’s best collection of tanks and explosive live displays. Our exhibitions tell the story of armoured warfare spanning over 100 years of history. Exploring ten powerful exhibitions, you will come face to face with almost 300 armoured vehicles. This unique collection includes the world’s first ever tank, the feared German Tiger and the modern Challenger 2. There are special events going on throughout the year at The Tank Museum including TANKFEST, Tiger Day and the Vintage Christmas Festival and Craft Fayre, as well as special activity programmes during the School Holiday.
My seven-year-old grandson and I visited together. He is an enthusiast for tanks of all sizes. I served in the RTR in the 1970s. This was our fourth visit together, but the pleasure of seeing the displays and the eagerness of getting to the museum have not lessened. We are a bit disappointed the Tiger display is being dispersed, but appreciate you have to introduce new ideas. We enjoy seeing the scale models and the semi-Lego, although grandpa whose pocket is not bottomless sees this as an advertisement for your shop. The layout of the museum, the great variety of tanks on display, the information boards, the background history, the helpful guides -- all make this an unsurpassed museum experience for both grandson and grandfather. Even our enthusiasm for toy soldiers can be indulged. We look forward further visits with our year entry, another good feature.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon at Monkey World in Dorset during our stay in Bournemouth. There is good parking space with plenty of room for children and family on arrival. The layout of the park is excellent with good walkways , very good for disabled people.The very spacious rescue centre houses monkeys from all over the world with amazing real life stories displayed of how each was rescued from an awful life of hardship. The Orang-utans were happy and playful, interacting with each other in a mischievous way. It was incredible to watch Monkeys grooming each other and imitating our actions, giving a feeling of connection.The staff give informative talks at set times which add to the experience. There are indoor and outdoor cafes providing hot drinks and snacks.Entrance fee is £14 per adult with family group prices which are very reasonable. All in all the more we can give to help these wonderful animals and the hard work at Monkey world the better. A very enjoyable experience.

The REX is an art-deco gem of a small town cinema from the 1920's. 130 Seats with digital projection and sound but with a period ambience. The REX is owned by the Purbeck Film Charitable Trust and run by a team of enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers. The REX shows everything from art-house to blockbusters and is the main hub of the renowned annual Purbeck Film Festival, the largest rural film festival in the United Kingdom.
We love this cinema so much, we have just been two nights in a row!. We don’t live in the area but frequently visit. It has a lovely ambiance, isn’t expensive and is run by a lovely group of passionate volunteers. If you are in the area it’s an experience you shouldn’t miss. It’s the perfect blend of nostalgia and modern technology

Spend an inspirational day here at Holme, start with a walk around our Beautiful Landscaped Gardens (charges apply). See the Palm Garden, Wild Flower field, Pear Tunnel, Wedding Pavilion, Lavanda Avenue leading to our new Amphitheater and many stunning boarders. Then enjoy The Orchard Cafe, which will be serving al fresco breakfast, lunch, cream teas and Holme made cakes, around the pond and gardens all day long. Visit The Holme Farm Shop, which celebrates all that is good about the fresh, local Purbeck produce, beers, ciders, meats, breads and chocolates. Then talk to our enthusiastic staff in the Nursery, who can provide you with everything you need to keep your garden looking stunning all year round.
Excellent garden centre, great choice of plants, lovely cafe (although closed for sitting in at present) and really brilliant landscape gardens to enjoy, ongoing planting. Worth the journey to find. A real gem.
