Boscombe Apartment | Dorset family friendly home for beach and forest

2 Bedroom Apartment in Boscombe, Bournemouth

This is our holiday beach home that we bought in 2022 after visiting the area in the summer of 2021 (having never heard of Southbourne, before). We loved the area and decided to buy here.
We have designed the home to be suited to our family (with two young children aged 6 and 8). As soon as we saw Southbourne, we felt ‘at home’:- loved the community feel, location, convenience to both transport and the beach, shops and restaurants.
We hope you have a relaxing time in our home and love it too
The Property:
Brand new kitchen and bathroom. The flat was renovated in June 2022. It is our holiday beach home.
A short walk to the vibrant Southbourne high street (supermarket, coffee shops) and the beautiful beach. There is a fenced garden with BBQ. Free parking space.
It’s a 10 min walk to the beach, through a lovely park on Fisherman’s Walk. There is a zig zig walk down to the beach or a cliff lift in operation for those who need it.
The flat sleeps up to 4 people and is geared up for all types of visitor but in particular, families with children. *5 people can be accommodated with Airbed in living room on request
If you are on holiday with young children, there are plenty of games and toys at the flat to keep them amused.
The flat’s location means it is easy to spend some time at the beach and then come home before walking to a local restaurant.
Between October and March, the flat can be booked for longer stays. Please contact us to discuss.
We are looking to continuously improve and extend the property in the future so we are happy to take your feedback about anything that you think we could do better.

Summary: A great holiday flat for a young family. Lots of lovely toys and books for children to play with and keep them occupied. The garden is cute and it’s great to have a bit of outdoor space when you have kids. Lots of cafes and restaurants in easy walking distance. SoBo beach is also very close. A lovely home to stay in to make happy memories.
