Property code: 47267

Beautifully presented five-star 1930s property sleeping eight guests, with spacious grounds which include a private outdoor swimming pool and well-tended lawns, located close to the beach at Sandbanks.

Within walking distance of the soft sandy beach at Canford Cliffs, this four-bedroom property is perfect for larger families seeking a true seaside holiday on the Dorset coast. Stroll along the beach to the Sandbanks peninsula and hop on the ferry to the coastal wilderness of Studland Bay where 4 miles of beach are ideal for beach games, sandcastle building and paddling in the gently shelving waters. Gaze on the tall ships and luxury yachts docked in Poole harbour as you feast on freshly caught fish and chips or why not enjoy the view from the water on a harbour cruise?

Set in an acre of private gardens, your holiday home offers luxurious accommodation with bags of space. Relax in the gentle warmth of the wood burner as you watch a family film in the lounge or curl up on the sofa with a good book. Make the most of the sunshine in the bright and airy conservatory overlooking the garden or if you want some peace and quiet, head through to the snug with its inviting cosy sofa and views onto the swimming pool and garden. The spacious kitchen has everything you need to prepare family meals and the generous breakfast bar is ideal for a morning cup of coffee as you make plans for the day. Leisurely suppers can be enjoyed in the formal dining room with feature stained glass window. At the end of a busy day of adventures, head upstairs where you will find four well-appointed bedrooms. The generous king-size bedroom comes complete with plump armchairs to enjoy the garden view and a contemporary en-suite shower room. A further super king-size bedroom and twin bedroom are tastefully decorated in soothing tones. The fourth bedroom is a restful single with pull-out bed. Indulge in a long soak in the wonderful original Art Deco bathroom after a bracing beach walk. There is plenty of space on the lawns for garden games or spreading out a picnic blanket for an al fresco lunch. Wander through the private woodland, find a shady spot on the terrace and of course, enjoy a dip in the pool.

Beautiful home and garden, the pool is a wonderful bonus. Ideal location for a family holiday, but one doesnt have to move from the house to have a relaxing or active holiday as the garden is a wonderful site in which to sit or for cricket, football or hide and seek.

This house was perfect. It was very clean, well stocked with everything we needed. The owner met us at the property and talked us through everything and was there as we left. Great space and superb grounds. Walk able to the beach and a restaurant. We would love to stay when the pool is open. Plenty of space for 8 of you.

Wonderful week spent with children/grandparents in this little haven of loveliness in Canford Cliffs.
