Uber/taxi options in Dorset countryside?
Looking for Uber or taxi services in the Dorset countryside?
We’ll be staying just outside of Wool for four days in June, and while my husband and son are looking forward to spending four or five hours at the Tank Museum, I’m hoping to visit Athelhampton House, though I might not need as much time there. What are the chances of finding Uber or taxis on demand in the area? Are there any buses that run between the nearby small towns? Thanks!
In the Dorset countryside, including areas around Wool and Athelhampton, the availability of Ubers and taxis can be quite limited compared to urban areas. While it’s not impossible to find Uber services, they are not as prevalent, so it’s wise to plan ahead. Local taxi services may be a better option; it’s a good idea to check in advance and potentially book a taxi for your specific needs.
As for public transport, there are some bus services that run between small towns, but they might not be frequent, so you’ll want to check the timetable in advance. The Dorset Council website or local travel apps could have more information on bus routes and schedules.
With your car, you’re definitely giving yourself more flexibility to enjoy both the Tank Museum and Athelhampton House at your own pace! It might be worth considering driving to Athelhampton House, even if you only plan to stay for a shorter time. Enjoy your trip!
