Road Directions

The Tank Museum is in south Dorset near Wareham and is signposted by the Brown tourist signs when approaching from Dorchester, Blandford, Weymouth and Poole. The Tank Museum is about a 30-minute drive from these locations, about 45 minutes from Bournemouth and Salisbury, and about an hour from Southampton and Yeovil.There is plenty of free parking on site.

Public Transport Directions

The Tank Museum's nearest station is Wool (1.5 miles), which is on the South Western Railway mainline from London Waterloo to Weymouth. Trains are frequent in both directions, and whilst it is walkable in about 30 mins, you may prefer using local taxi company (Garrison Cars, T: 01929 463395) to take you to and from the station. There are also Beryl Bikes you can hire from Wool station.
