Studland beach is off limits to hounds between May and September, which is reasonable, though with October here the magnificent dune backed sands are once again accessible. What a joy to be back, what a glorious sunrise to welcome our return, and what a fabulous walk; Shell Bay to Swanage and back via Ballard Down and the end of the Purbeck ridge. Whether it was the beautiful walking conditions, or the coffee and cake that fuelled my return leg, but the walk passed easier than I'd expected... you can't underestimate the sustaining qualities of coffee and cake! Ever been to Swanage? It's great, a traditional seaside town in a beautiful setting, pretty much as I remember it in the 70's and 80's; a rare thing.
