In the evening, enjoy beautifully lit landscapes at the beachside restaurants. Southbourne’s other gem is its Green Flag Award winning Seafield Gardens, with facilities for bowls, tennis and croquet.

Situated close to Hengistbury Head, a beautifully natural beach, and neighbouring town, Christchurch, Southbourne is a great location for picturesque pastures.

Wherever you decide to stay, there is plenty to do. And don’t forget that all these areas are just a short car or bus journey away.
