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. There's a whole host of family fun in Bournemouth and kids will love the underwater adventures at Oceanarium, wildlife adventures and indoor waterparks. There are plenty of historic houses, museums and heritage sites to explore and ancient villages in the surrounding countryside. Head inland from the beach, through the stunning Lower Gardens and you'll find yourself in the middle of the town's shopping mecca, with unique boutiques sitting alongside high-street favourites. Whether you're on a romantic break or a family adventure, Bournemouth has something to offer everyone, whatever the season.
