Upton Bay residents embarked on a delightful autumn bus trip to Milton Abbas, where they were treated to the mesmerizing sight of autumn leaves gracefully descending.

We had an amazing bus trip starting from Upton Bay and making our way to various picturesque destinations. Our first stop was at Poole Quay, where we enjoyed the lively atmosphere and stunning views. From there, we headed to Sandbanks to catch a glimpse of the ferry, immersing ourselves in the waterfront charm. Continuing our journey, we explored Canford Cliffs and marvelled at the beauty of Upper Parkstone and Lower Parkstone. At Constitution Hill View Point, it’s where we paused to indulge in a delightful break.
