Christchurch Cottages
The unique geography of this area makes for a mesmerising holiday filled with sea views, cliff walks, harbourside lunches and old town strolls; Christchurch will fulfil all of your Dorset holiday needs. Its large natural harbour is not only a place to sightsee but ensures a fresh supply of seafood for all the local restaurants.Read more
There are countless activities here, whether it's boat trips out into the English Channel and perhaps over to the Isle of Wight, or simply a ferry between Quays at Christchurch and Mudeford on a south coast mini sail. You can't visit Dorset without having a traditional cream tea, so head up to Highcliffe Castle to enjoy jam and scones in a rather regal environment, surrounded by Grade I Listed heritage.
For a lively night out head west to Bournemouth, or for serene tranquillity and more walks than you can walk in a week, head into the New Forest National Park. Christchurch is well placed for main transport routes and yet feels like you've stepped into another, strikingly beautiful yet modern and convenient, holiday world.
