Studland is very special to me. When I was about 8 or 9 years old in 1972/73 our family holidayed here, staying in a bungalow called "Barrington" which was up the hill off of Watery Lane. We watched Prince Charles parachute out of a Hercules plane over the bay. The Studland peninsula really is one of the most stunning places on Earth !!

What a joyful start to the video with whippet zoomies. Fairly familar ground for me as I have walked there a few times though the heathland can be confusing. I looked for Puckstone rock and found a very small rock (compared to Agglestone) but was not totally convinced it was it. Bittersweet memories of SWCP as I think now it will only be rare short revisits to it for me.

Thank you Jean. We didn't quite have enough time to find the Puckstone Rock but the photo you put on Facebook looks like that is it.

Hi Dave, thank you for a beautiful walk along the seaside. The Agglestone Rock is quite something to see. Congratulations to you and Fiver for your achievement in the 5km trail race. 44 out of 101 is excellent - well done. As usual we appreciate the walks and videos that you do for us - thanks again. Norman & Pam

I haven't seen Logan so active in quite a while. Looks as if the sea and sand suited him. That Agglestone rock was amazing. At one angle, it looked a bit like a huge bird. Shell bay and Studland bay are really perfect for families. A beautiful walk. I've been across there on a bus for Swanage more than once. Its a lovely ride.😊
@DaveFord5 ай бұрын
Yes, i think Logan really enjoyed that one. He loves running on sand in particular.
@AndrewVanDay2 ай бұрын
If I may suggest... What would make your video more enjoyable would be a 360° camera and talk as you walk. There were a few programmes on TV with celebrities doing that and it had more of a feeling that it was you yourself (the viewer) on the walk.

Lovely walk, Dave. Brought back happy memories of the family holidays we used to have in that area. First time we visited we didn't know there was a naturist beach there...we got quite a shock when this wrinkly old man appeared from.the bushes in his birthday suit! When Bournemouth beach was crowded we used to go to Sandbanks for some peace and quiet. That was before the rich and famous discovered it!

It’s about fifty years since I was in the Studland area. I didn’t know that the Agglestone Rock had taken a tumble. I wonder how much those beach huts cost considering the price of properties in Sandbanks. A lovely walk all told.

I believe that the rock may have "fallen over" in 1970 although I am not 100% sure.

After the previous day's exertions, walking all those sand paths, I bet the old calves were grumbling by the time you got back to the Bankes Arms! (We stayed there one Valentine's Night, romantic old git that I am 🙂). Bet it was too cold for a spot of Skinny D on Studland beach though! Great work Dave
