THE LOCAL AREA: Westbourne is a popular holiday location situated between Bournemouth and Poole. It is affectionately known as The Village and offers a mix of design specialists, beauty stores and delicious delis, pubs and child-friendly restaurants.
Alum Chine beach is within walking distance and is hugely popular with families due to a pirate-themed large adventure playground, toilets with baby changing facilities, RNLI lifeguard stations, a restaurant and ice cream kiosks. From Alum Chine beach you can take a peaceful stroll through the exotic woodlands which takes you to Westbourne Village.
The walk along the promenade underneath the cliffs or along the beach to Bournemouth Pier is always a popular choice. The land train also runs along the promenade, from close by the bus terminus at the foot of Alum Chine, to Bournemouth Pier and to Boscombe Pier beyond.
If you walk along the promenade in the other direction towards Poole you will come across Branksome Dene beach which offers yet more sea and sand, another RNLI lifeguard station, ice cream kiosk and toilet facilities. Surfboard and SUP hire and/or lessons are possible here from April through September. A longer walk takes you past Branksome Chine beach all the way to Sandbanks with a magnificent vista across Poole Bay.
A short drive from the property brings you to Bournemouth centre itself which offers high street shops, theatres, an Odeon cinema and restaurant complex called BH2, restaurants, bars and entertainment for the whole family.
Seasonal open top buses will take you into Bournemouth and Poole, or across the chain ferry from Sandbanks for more sightseeing in Studland Bay, Swanage and Old Harry’s Rocks.

PRO: We had a fantastic time,enjoyed the house to the maximum inside and outside, kids had so much fun outside,especially in the trampoline. Lots of space for everyone and easy to check in . The whole family got so much in love with the house, that we are thinking to use the same property if available for our next year holiday,the kids were so sad returning home, even now they are saying they already miss to spend time at the house,.
CONS: downstairs bathroom door has no lock,so was hard to use it with small kids around trying to get in., also the door at upstairs master bedroom is not closing , it has a key in it but can’t be used due to the wrong fitting .the bunkbeds from the inside and their ladders are very black from hand and foot prints , ,could do with a cleaning.
The fridge has some issues ,it makes ice at the back which turned our fruits very frozen but on the first days was not that cold and our meat for grill went off
Also the big beds especially the one in master bedroom, each time we turn it makes noise.

Dear Maria, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear that you and your family had such a fantastic time and that the kids enjoyed the outdoor space, especially the trampoline. It’s wonderful to know that the house made such a positive impression, and we’d be thrilled to welcome you back for your next holiday.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the bathroom doors, bunk beds, and fridge. We’re sorry for any inconvenience these issues caused and will address them promptly to improve the experience for future guests. We’ll also look into the bed noise in the master bedroom to ensure a more comfortable stay.
Thank you again for your detailed review, and we hope to see you and your family again soon! Kind Regards, Bournecoast Holidays
La maison est très bien située , près de la plage et du centre de Westbourne. Le jardin est agréable et les enfants ont bien aimé le trampoline. La maison est bien équipée mais nous avons trouvé que la cuisine était trop petite pour le nombre de personnes qui peuvent loger dans la maison. Elle aurait besoin d'une remise à neuf également.

Why they chose this property
Nestled in a sheltered bay on the South Coast of England in the picturesque county of Dorset, this area has seven miles of sandy beaches for you to enjoy. There’s plenty to do in the resort or you can use the area as a base – stay and eat here while exploring the rest of Dorset’s history, heritage and picture-postcard scenery. There are plenty of places for you to visit, whatever the weather. There are museums, galleries, amusement arcades, crazy golf, play parks and an oceanarium. You can bring friends and family of all ages too – there’ll be something for everyone to enjoy.
Are you an adrenaline junkie? Or do you prefer a more relaxed pace? You can hike on the clifftops or freewheel gently along the prom. If you’d rather slow your pulse than get the blood pumping, you can spend your time just being pampered in one our spas. We’ve got golf courses, gyms and leisure centres, bowling lawns, tennis courts and the option to try beach sports. We find it’s easier to get motivated with the sand between your toes and sea views on the horizon! You don’t have to go very far for rippling waves and sparkling seas. Here you can take to your surfboard, kayak or paddleboard and get straight out onto the open water. You can bring your own equipment or hire it while you’re here. We’ve got a fabulous mix of shops – there are boutiques, department stores, designer brands and high street favourites. Our shops are close to the beach and surrounded by cafés and coffee shops. So, you can shop ‘til you drop or just pop in for holiday essentials. The area is well known for its bustling nightlife. There are cinemas, comedy clubs, theatres, casinos, nightclubs and plenty of places to catch live music. It’s hard to beat a sunny day on the beach but with a huge choice of gigs and shows in town, you’ll continue to be wowed long after the sun has gone down.
What makes this property unique
The area has a host of award-winning restaurants, bars, clubs, theatres, museums and cinemas, as well as countless attractions and places of interest.
With its ponies, protected natural beauty and thousand years of history, the New Forest is Bournemouth's back yard and for those of you of a literary bent, Thomas Hardy country is just a few miles away (Bournemouth being Hardy's Sandbourne). Continuing the themes, the tranquillity of the nearby isle of Purbeck was the inspiration for Enid Blyton's Famous Five adventures.
Add to that the National Trust sanctuary of Poole’s Brownsea Island and the historic charms of Christchurch and its famous Priory and you have the perfect backdrop for your holiday - with accommodation from Bournecoast being the cherry on the cake.
