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

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.
