Coach House Cottage is a converted Victorian coach house. Used as a coach house until 1920's when it became a repair shop run by the Smith family. During WW2 it was a building society office. In 1952 it was converted into a house.
I am keen on local history having written a book on the history of hotels in Bournemouth called A Bed by the Sea. I know lots of places around Bournemouth and know some hidden gems too.
Set in the pretty East Cliff part of Bournemouth it is a few minutes walk to the cliff top where you can see the Isle of Wight or Isle of Purbeck. The 2 zig zag paths down to the sea are not far away. The town centre is within walking distance and bus stops and the train/ coach station are close by.
