A Bournemouth holiday
Seven miles of golden sand. A Victorian pier. The Jurassic Coast on your doorstep.
Bournemouth is one of the few places in the United Kingdom where the beach holiday actually delivers. Seven Blue Flag beaches stretch from Sandbanks to Hengistbury Head, with golden sand, warm shallows in summer and the Victorian pier as the unmistakable centrepiece.
Beyond the beach: the Bournemouth Lower Gardens for an afternoon stroll, the Oceanarium for a wet-weather plan with kids, and the Jurassic Coast a short drive west for cliff walks and fossil hunting at Lyme Regis or Charmouth.
In August, the Bournemouth Air Festival pulls in over a million spectators across four days. Year-round, the town centre delivers proper independent restaurants, the BH2 cinema complex, the Pavilion Theatre and a high street that has held its own against most south coast competitors.
Our apartments give you a base. The town gives you the holiday.
