Spent a morning messing around with splits from Nottingham all the way to Bournemouth and I've only got as far as £52.10 :(

Plan is to go on this Friday after 3pm and come back anytime on Sunday with a 16-25 railcard.

I went for Nottingham- Leamington Spa off-peak return £16.50
Leamington Spa- Oxford off peak return £12.50
Oxford -Basingstoke advance singles £9.80
Basingstoke-Bournemouth advance singles £13.30

I'm stumped of anyway to get it cheaper if anyway can help!

Cheers

Just a polite reminder that it's helpful to use full station names as some people aren't familiar with the abbreviations.

Depending on when you're travelling you might be able to beat that with Megatrain Nottingham<->London and London<->Bournemouth ?

( Just re-read the original post - probably no good for this time... )

Depends if you want to be there fast or not.

The best I can come up with for now with a fairly long route only for a few quid saving.

Friday:
Nottingham - Tamworth Off Peak Return £10.70 17.10-18:00
Tamworth - Euston Advance £7.90 18:20-19:52
Euston - Bournemouth advance £16 21:35-23:25

Sunday
Bournemouth - Southampton Advance £4.90 11:40-12:10
Southampton - Tamworth Advance £7.25 (via Barnham) 12:30-18.54
Use your Off peak return back to Notts. 19:09-20:00

Comes to £46.75. Might be able to come up with something cheaper.

I'd spotted 7.25 (railcard) fare for Southampton to Victoria (via Barnham) - hadn't realised you could go so far North for the same fare.

Just checking now there's excellent availability all the way from Southampton-Liverpool for the same price - that seems like excellent value (even if it is a rather leisurely journey).

The LM+SOUTHERN ONLY fares are excellent, there is even a £7.25 for Liverpool Lime Street - Southampton!
