Make your way up to the top floor of this contemporary home and you’ll find a calm coastal sanctuary – with refreshing views across Poole Harbour. It’s also a space with family entertainment at its heart. The two large living rooms make it easy to gather for drinks, games and mealtimes, while the four bedrooms provide a quiet space to unwind. Remote workers will also appreciate the dedicated desk space (and leafy garden views), while the range of toys will keep little ones entertained throughout your stay. From here, it’s a just short stroll to the beach (a beach hut is available on request), as well as the restaurants, bars and shops of Lilliput.

About Poole
The coastal town of Poole is home to Europe's largest natural harbour. Wander around the historic quayside with its impressive ships and luxury powerboats, or admire the Georgian architecture in the Old Town. In the middle of Poole Harbour, tiny Brownsea Island, famous for Lord Baden-Powell's scout camps, contains paths that meander through beautiful woods and heaths, where you'll see red deer, peacocks and red squirrels. Make sure you stop...
