With Southbourne's clifftops and Hengistbury Head's beach just a short stroll away, this family-friendly home will suit beach lovers down to the ground. The popular village of Wick, Tuckton, and Southbourne High Street are all within walking distance, too, for when thoughts turn to food. If 12 of you are sharing, the home could benefit from a few more bathrooms and a larger dining area. Also, the garden feels a little tired compared to the home's smart interiors. But it's still a nice spot for morning cuppas, and the Wendy house and tree swing will be a hit with little ones.

Local guide
About Christchurch
As the waters of England’s south coast wind inwards from the sea, they form the River Avon and the River Stour, which then split up to house Christchurch right in the middle. Beyond the salty spray of the beaches, this little town is peppered with Norman castles and ancient heritage. It’s one of the UK’s top retirement spots, but that certainly doesn’t mean there’s nothing going on here – you...
