Sandbanks Beach

The water of Sandbanks Beach is shallow and perfect for paddling! Parents can feel comfortable in the knowledge that lifeguards patrol here the entire summer. Up on the promenade you’ll find a crazy golf course, children’s amusements and a selection of shops and cafés. You’re also able to hire out a beach hut and make use of well-maintained shower facilities.

    Very beautiful unfortunately I didn't go sightseeing this time as I was playing Chess for a week.I have been to Poole before and thought it was great. Good place to go for a holiday as many places to visit but the Holiday Season is the best time to visit.

    Check out The Haven Hotel for a coffee. Leave your car there and your car registration with Reception. Then go across the chain ferry as a foot passenger for a pound. Explore the beaches and then check out Shell Bay Restaurant for a glass of wine and sunset.

    There is limited parking particularly when in the holiday season. Queues for the Sandbanks Ferry can cause congestion. Choose restaurants carefully and know where you are going to park. Worth booking the restaurant even if out of season.

    On the whole the staff were very friendly (sometimes a bit too much laddish banter between themselves). The restaurant is good and good value. The location is excellent for the quay, shops, pubs and restaurants. Parking is available close by and not stupidly expensive. Close enough to Sandbanks to pop over for an hour or so.

    Perfect location a very short walk from the coast. We could see the sea from the window. Very convenient for Poole City centre, The Quay and harbour, Sandbanks, Studland Beach, Old Harry's Rocks, Corf Castle and much more. The hosts were very helpful and always responded to questions straight away. The apartment was very up to date, warm and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
