I see on the next site a few days you can visit the village, but only in the weekend. Can we not visit the village on tuesday, or are this special days on the list? |

But Lucsa, if you type 'Lyneham' into the search bar to the top left on the POE homepage, it will be of interest to you I feel sure. |

" Hi, Sorry for delay, but open until Sun 30 March, then closed until Sat 12 April, Sun 13 April. The general rule of thumb is open Saturdays and Sundays until 26 July when it is open all week for the summer. regards, isleofpurbeck.com |

Like you say, the isle will be there another year. Next year we look to come over from thursday to tuesday. |
