Cottages in Bournemouth

Boasting mile after mile of beautiful, natural coastline anyone seeking a traditional seaside break should head for one of the award-winning sandy beaches, and of course one of our comfortable cottages in Bournemouth. The family-friendly beaches at Alum Chine and Southbourne are perfect for sunbathing, sandcastles and swimming.

Inspiration of things to see and do in our Bournemouth holiday cottages

Bournemouth in Dorset offers a wide array of attractions and activities. Here are the top five things to see and do in Bournemouth:

  1. Bournemouth Beach: Spend time relaxing on Bournemouth's award-winning sandy beach, which stretches for several miles along the coastline. Enjoy beach activities, sunbathing, or take a stroll along the promenade with beautiful views of the sea.

  2. Bournemouth Pier: Visit Bournemouth Pier, where you can enjoy amusement arcades, food stalls, and stunning views of the coastline. You can also take the zip line from the pier to the beach for an exhilarating experience.

  3. Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum: Explore the fascinating Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum, housed in a stunning Victorian villa overlooking the sea. The museum exhibits a diverse collection of art and artefacts from around the world.

  4. Bournemouth Gardens: Take a leisurely walk through the Lower, Central, and Upper Gardens, which provide a tranquil escape from the bustle of the town. The gardens are well-maintained and offer beautiful floral displays, tree-lined pathways, and delightful picnic spots.

  5. Bournemouth Balloon: Enjoy panoramic views of Bournemouth and the surrounding coastline by taking a ride on the Bournemouth Balloon, an anchored helium balloon that takes visitors up to 500 feet in the air.

Bonus: Adventure Activities: Bournemouth offers various adventure activities for thrill-seekers, such as water sports, jet skiing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. You can also try out beach volleyball, and mini-golf, or rent a beach hut for a relaxing day by the sea.
