The West Country / Dorset region

Bournemouth is a great base for exploring the South Coast of England, we have a mild climate in the winter months and generally have some of the hottest summer temperatures on the south coast. Bournemouth is such a diverse area and within 10 miles either side you can be in the open countryside or on a small desserted beach. We have plenty of summer fun in the traditional Bournemouth Pleasure gardens with daily activities for both young and old. Our theatres attract top names throughout the year and our restaurants and bars cater for a wide range of tastes and budgets. Shopping is excellent and transport links (if you dont have a car) are within walking distance. We guarentee you will enjoy your time here with us.

The Bournemouth / East Cliff, Bournemouth area

Bournemouth has such a diverse choice of settings with so many attractions to choose from it is hard to know where to start.

As parents ourselves we know how hard it is to keep the children entertained without burning a whole in your wallet so here are a few of our favourite attractions that won't cost you an arm and a leg!
BEACHES
5 minutes walk from the cottage is Bournemouth Beach and no one can resist a good old day at the beach. During the summer months there is a wide array of free activities for the children in the Kid Zone areas and in the pleasure gardens with numerous seafront attractions.
We have access to some of the most beautiful beaches on the south coast and if you prefer somewhere a little quieter why no take the 5 minute ferry crossing from Sandbanks (Millionaires Row) to Studland Bay which belongs to the national Trust.

MOORS VALLEY COUNTRY PARK 15 minute drive from the cottage on the A338
Moors Valley covers 750 acres in the Valley of the Moors River. At the heart of the park is the Visitor Centre, an 18th century timber barn, which houses Seasons Restaurant ,Just a few minutes walk from the Visitor Centre is the Adventure Play Area for older children and a special Castle and Sand Area for toddlers. From the play areas we cross the picnic area to the picturesque Moors Lake alongside which runs the narrow-gauge steam railway that will take you on a mile long journey through the park.

POOLE PARK - 20 minute drive from the cottage
Poole Park is one of only two Victorian Parks in the Borough of Poole, the park comprises of 109.5 acres of which 60 acres are water. So lots of boating fun, a train journey round the park, an ice skating ring, soft play centre, a great outside play park, loads of great trees to climb and lots of paths to cycle or roller skate on an ideal day out for families.

In the centre of town we have a wonderful aquarium, wacky warehouse soft play area, pottery painting cafe, build a bear workshop, children's museum, cinemas to name a few

“Fabulous property in a superb location!” What a lovely property this is! We travelled with ourselves, our 1 year old, friends and their two year old. House had everything we all needed for a brilliant stay and plenty of room for two families. Louise couldn't have been more helpful in making sure we had everything we needed, including travel cot and high chair. Great location close to town centre and beach.
