Originally built in 1869 for HM Coastguard, these 2 Cottages have been renovated to a very high standard with the best of everything, the work having been completed in July 2017. We have endeavoured to create the perfect seaside retreat for holiday makers and business users alike. Situated 100 yards from Southbourne Beach with panoramic sea views, smells and sounds! The accommodation consists of 2 double bedrooms, one of which can have either twin or kingside bed, two bathrooms along with a double sofabed if required. A fully fitted kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, oven, induction hob, fridge freezer etc. Also a utility area with washer dryer, iron & board etc. Centrally heated with beautiful seaside decor and furnishings, Sky tv and broadband also included. We can provide most things you require for your holiday, also, high chairs and travel cots, stair gates & playpens. There is off street parking on site.
We live on site so we'll meet you with the keys on arrival and will be on hand for whatever you require to make your trip to Bournemouth a memorable one.
Beautiful unspoilt Southbourne & Hengistbury Head. The blue flag l beaches here are quiet, even in the summer. So much to do locally from crab fishing at Mudeford Quay, lazy days in the gardens and beach to discovering beautiful historic Christchurch and The New Forest. Plenty of nightlife in Bournemouth, Southbourne & Christchurch.
