After your guided walk, you’ll have exclusive access to Brownsea Castle. Warm up with a hot drink and a delicious scone with cream and jam, thanks to our collaboration with the John Lewis Partnership.
Relax in the Morning Room and take in the stunning views of Poole Harbour. Don’t miss this special opportunity to visit Brownsea Island out of season, enjoy wildlife spotting, and indulge in some delightful treats.
