GINGER POP

Enid Blyton, the author of "Noddy", "The Secret Seven" and "The Famous Five" amongst others, holidayed in Swanage and on the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset, three times a year for over twenty years and used local Dorset locations in her books. As an example Corfe Castle is the inspiration for Kirrin Castle in the Famous Five series of books.

Vivienne Endecott, a life long Enid Blyton fan, who runs this website, has written a book (The Dorset Days of Enid Blyton) and runs Theme Holidays and walks around Corfe Castle from her shop "Ginger Pop" in Corfe Castle square.

Why not visit her site at http://www.gingerpop.co.uk   which gives interesting local information about Enid Blyton.
