Studland Bay and Sandbanks :
“What does the beach mean to you..?”
We are lucky enough to be 15 minutes by boat or car to some of the best beaches in the UK. It isn’t surprising our family spends a lot of our time there. Perfect for a warm summers day but equally inviting on a crisp winters day when it is just you and the dogs making the most of the quiet season.

Studland Bay and Lulworth Cove:
“What does the beach mean to you..?”
Brisk, bracing winter walks. The sound of shingle footsteps and crashing waves rolling from the Atlantic across Lyme Bay. The smell of sea wet dogs, rosy faces and fish and chips at the Hive.
Summer – swimming out to little boats for an afternoon sail, avoiding the lobster pots and maybe catching a mackerel for tea with a glass of rose at sundown.

Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door:
“What does the beach mean to you..?”
Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are iconic beaches of the UK, never mind Dorset. A must see and experience for any of our visitors to Dorset, which always meet expectations and more.

Ringstead Bay:
“What does the beach mean to you..?”
An unspoilt bay that allows our guests to enjoy the charms of the Jurassic Coast.

Mudeford Sandbank:
“What does the beach mean to you..?”
I am fortunate enough to have always lived by the sea and I can’t imagine not . The beach holds memories for me as a child, time with family friends and in recent years so many fun times with my own children. We continue to create those as they grow older.

The beach to me means Sandbanks! The only UK beach to have held the ‘Blue Flag’ award for all the scheme’s 25 years! From the mouth of Poole Harbour across miles and miles (estimates vary between 8 & 10) to Hengistbury Head and the mouth of Christchurch Harbour, the beaches that form the coast of Poole Bay are undoubtedly some of the best in the world. Walkers, swimmers, surfers, leisure boats, kite and wind surfing and that’s just the water! The beach to me means Sandbanks & holidays!
