Enjoying a wonderful seaside spot in Southbourne, this homely retreat is located within walking distance of award-winning beaches. It is the perfect getaway for a re-laxing break with family and friends while exploring the heart of the stunning Dorset coast. Southbourne is part of the beautiful Dorset coastline, home to the gloriously golden Southbourne Beach less than 100 metres away, and a beautiful promenade which stretches from Sandbanks to Hengistbury Head—perfect for keen walkers and cyclists alike. Southbourne enjoys a vibrant and bustling high street which boasts a wonderful variety of independent cafes, restaurants, delicatessens, and boutique-style shops showcasing the area’s best local produce. The enchanting tracks and trails of the New Forest National Park, a playground for keen outdoor explorers, can be reached within 7 miles, whilst the bustling coastal resorts of Bournemouth (3 miles), Christchurch (1.7 miles), and Poole (9.5 miles) are all nearby.

Leave your beach shoes at the door and step into this bright and airy ground-floor apartment. The spacious open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area is the perfect place to relax and unwind. Sink into the comfortable sofas, open the bi-fold doors, and enjoy the fresh sea air. The well-equipped kitchen provides everything you need to prepare a hearty breakfast, a light lunch, or your favourite evening meal. Leading off the hallway are two generously sized bedrooms. The master bedroom features a double bed and an en-suite shower room with WC, while the second bedroom offers twin beds, making it ideal for families or friends.

We had a lovely week in this property. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. An easy short walk to the beach perfect for a quick swim. Walking along the prom, along the top or to Hengistbury Head was great. A trip from Tuckton on the ferry to Christchurch or Hengistbury was a delight. We hope to return next year.
