Gunwharf Quays (apartment)

Home description

The accommodation is modern and furnished to a high level, the building is in the popular Gunwharf Quays, close to the beaches and all amenities. Gunwharf Quays itself has many good places to eat and drink and a good variety of outlet shopping.

During the summer months this destination is perfect for enjoying the beach and warm evenings outside the local wine bars and restaurants, or even travelling to the Isle of Wight, (the ferry goes from nearby) London (only 1hr &20minutes - train station next to Gunwharf) or nearby Sandbanks and Bournemouth.
A car is not necessary as the station is so close as are other forms of transport. If you do decide to travel by car the apartment has its own parking space, which is very unusual in this area.

The apartment offers all the high specifications of a modern hotel, but with more space, a balcony and self-catering facilities,plus a few extra luxuries and a brilliant venue, everything on your doorstep!
