small appartment in a lovely environment

Clean and small but everything we needed was there. When we arrived it was very cold inside but when we asked the neighbour we had heating. It is a bit dark inside but furniture is nice. There are many nice excursions to make in the nearby area. Lots of things to see and do!

Thank you for your review, we are happy to hear you had a nice stay. It was unfortunate that the weekend you arrived was colder than normal, however we are pleased that the heating came on for you so promptly when requested. It's lovely that you enjoyed what this area has to offer, we agree there are lots of things to do and see - I'm sure there are things you didn't manage to see so if you want to come back again please just let us know!

Tidy and well located.

Short walk to the Riverside pub, local shops and not too far from beaches. Lovely 6k run down Hengisbury head. Kitchen was clean and equipped. Bed very comfortable. Used the pad for business accommodation... WiFi was fast and dedicated.

Well located rental close to beaches and Christchurch

Pros - Clean, very well-equipped, well located close to all amenities and the beach Cons - Rather dark inside, bed very soft and not supportive if you prefer a firmer mattress. Overall good for what we wanted and we had a very enjoyable week.
