Dorset and Southampton
Dorset sits to Southampton's west along the A31. Christchurch is around 25 miles, Bournemouth 28 and Poole 32 — typically 38–60 minutes. Outside the London zone, so the fixed fares stay competitive, and a single car beats changing trains for the coast with luggage or cruise cases.
