- "We loved our stay at Victoria Cottage. The house was a great size for the 8 of us and had all the necessary items you’d need for a stay away from home. Garden was huge with a lovely patio area and plenty of seating. Only comment for awareness for others with younger children/people who may not be quite so steady on their feet…stairs are a little narrow/steep and split in two directions at top so just need to take care. But we loved our stay and would highly recommend!"

'The Retreat'

Light and airy, 'The Retreat' is perfectly positioned in the second row of the park near the small footpath leading out to the promenade. There is a clear, uninterrupted sea view from the lounge, kitchen area and from a small front deck that is accessed by double patio doors. The front deck has the sun most of the day and is just right for watching the world go by. In the winter it is wonderful to have a morning cuppa in the lounge while watching the sun move across the sky.

There is a much larger deck to the side, also with a sea view with tables and four chairs for al fresco dining. From here you can see the sun rise - perfect for a sunny breakfast and lunch, with shade when required.

Brand new in May 2021 and in beautiful condition, the property comes with large fridge and small freezer, microwave, toaster and gas oven and hob. There is lots of shelves and cupboard space in the kitchen area.

There is a bathroom with a good size shower, toilet, sink and two wall cupboards.

The property has its own dedicated parking space.

Curlew is located in a quiet, sunny area of the park, within a minute's walk from both the outdoor heated pool and clubhouse, and the promenade leading to the wonderful Avon beach.

We chose the name 'Curlew' for our property after hearing the bird's unmistakable display call ('cur-lee'), whilst walking through the nearby Hengistbury Head Nature Reserve.

Light and airy, Curlew is decorated in soft colours with local pictures and paintings of the New Forest.

There is a large double bedroom with a wardrobe, dressing table and ensuite toilet. Along the corridor is a small twin room with two single beds and further storage, whilst the separate family bathroom has a step-in shower, toilet and basin.

The local area:

You really are spoilt for choice in the Dorset and New Forest area. Avon Beach stretches out across the front of the Holiday Park, and the combination of the quay and endless sandy beach means you can do anything from crabbing to windsurfing. Both the Noisy Lobster and the Haven House Inn are fantastic places, no further than 10 minutes' walk and ideal for a bite to eat or a larger meal. Christchurch itself is an historical town with an abundance of bars and restaurants.

The beautiful New Forest is just a short drive away. Walk through forest enclosures or across beautiful heathland. For cyclists there are 100 miles of way-marked cycle tracks across the Crown Lands of the Forest. There are various family activities; horse riding, New Forest Tours, wildlife spotting and wild play to mention but a few. The historic Georgian market town of Lymington is also a must visit.

Bournemouth is a half hour drive and has plenty of shops for those wanting to do some retail therapy. Poole is a little further on with its historic quay and its famous Poole Pottery.

Plot 80, Sandhills Holiday Park, Mudeford

‘The Escape’ is a comfortable and modern lodge on Sandhills. The lodge sits on a quiet plot, set back from the Mudeford promenade, allowing for calm and privacy. It’s so easy to take your breakfast or a drink on the sunny deck and, with an ever-changing sea view, you can relax and simply watch the world go by.

Once you have unloaded your belongings from your car at your private parking spot, you will find all that you need inside. ‘The Escape’ provides plenty of cupboards and storage for you to unpack and feel at home straight away. From the Nespresso coffee machine, large American style fridge freezer to a microwave, hob/oven, washer/dryer and dishwasher for your convenience and to make your self-catering break as easy as possible

Sitting in the cosy lounge, you can have some relaxation time watching the sea or just enjoying some calm time. There is an electric fire for the winter evenings and feel free to use the smart TV and DVD player or Sonos speaker to play your music via Bluetooth. The free WiFi is good throughout the lodge and the rest of the park

The patio doors open to the morning sun and you can enjoy dining and sitting outside on the decking to catch some sunshine. There is a patio table and chairs for your comfort and blankets if you sit out after dark with a glass of something.

Take a short, level stroll from ‘The Escape’ and you will get to the clean, fine sands of Avon Beach or you might want to try some water sports on Mudeford Quay. Here you can hire kayaks, SUP paddleboards or windsurfs or even try sailing a dinghy and sail up to Christchurch. There is plenty to see and do outside of the park but perhaps you will be happy enough taking a swim in the outdoor heated pool. The pool side loungers are the perfect place to read your book and catch some rays; you will have no problem feeling in the holiday mood. The afternoon and early evening sun falls on the outdoor lounge area near the pool and bar, so this is also a spot to kick back and breathe in the fresh sea air.

‘The Escape’ has two bedrooms. The master bedroom has a double bed and ensuite shower room and three wardrobes and drawers to use. The second bedroom has two good size single beds with a storage unit for hanging items and tidying belongings away.

At ‘The Escape’ we find that time seems to stand still – it’s quite unique to Mudeford. Here’s hoping you have a wonderful time at ‘The Escape’ and leave feeling well and truly refreshed from your own escape!

Just as Dun a Ri (meaning Fort of the King) is a place of natural beauty and tranquillity offering an escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, our lodge provides a coastal sanctuary where guests can enjoy the serene harbour views and the calming sound of the waves, just as King George III enjoyed when he visited Sandhills Manor House.

By naming our lodge Dun a Ri, we bring a piece of the forest's magic to the coast, creating a unique and inviting retreat. Experience the peace, beauty, and inspiration of Dun a Ri at our coastal holiday lodge, overlooking the stunning Christchurch Harbour and within close proximity to the beautiful Avon Beach.

The Port Hole, or the Tardis as we call it because of its surprising spaciousness, has been the bolt hole of the Holgate family for many years and is now available for holiday lets. It is in an ideal location, just a couple of minutes’ walk from Mudeford Quay and Avon Beach. It also has two parking spaces.

The house is very much designed for a family and it sleeps 6; 4 adults in a super king size bedroom and a double bedroom and a children’s bedroom with bunk beds. Both the master and second bedroom have plenty of wardrobe space.

The downstairs living area is fairly open plan with a well-equipped kitchen and dining area that leads through to a spacious lounge with bi-fold doors that take you out into an enclosed courtyard space. The courtyard is fully enclosed, so quite safe for children and your four-legged furry friend. It also enjoys the afternoon sun, so great for alfresco dining or just chilling and enjoying a drink.

There is a downstairs shower room which is great for washing sand off when you get back from a day at the beach, or if you have been out on the water and want a nice warm shower.

Upstairs there is a family bathroom with a bath and standalone shower.

Opposite is the excellent Jetty restaurant and the 4* Christchurch Harbour Hotel, plus close by are bus stops to both Bournemouth and Lymington.

There is much to see and do in the local area. Mudeford Quay is famous for crabbing, you can buy crab nets and bait from the gift shop just by the Haven House Inn on the Quay or from the Fish stall. You can hire paddleboards and other ‘water’ equipment down on the Quay and there is a ferry that goes over to Hengistbury Head; the beach over there is dog friendly all year round and you can walk around the head to Christchurch if you wish.

Further along is the Avon beach and the Noisy Lobster restaurant which has an outside balcony – have a lovely long lunch just watching the world go by! There is also a gift shop, coffee hut and the Lobster Hatch that serves takeaway fish and chips.

Christchurch is the local town with the famous Priory which is well worth a look and walk around. Lymington has a market on a Saturday and further afield The New Forest which has some amazing walks and a great place to see the ponies and, if you are lucky, the donkeys and wild pigs!

It is the perfect holiday home for a family retreat by the seaside!

- "A few issues:- a. Contractor visited the property very early on the first morning to carry out cooker repair; we were still in bed and had not been notified so initially thought that a burglar had broken in! b. Kettle switch was faulty and kept 'cutting out' or not working. c. The heating/water system was either too hot or too cold - difficult to understand how to regulate the system. d. Pressure appeared to be too low for the flushing system on occasions. e. Excellent television lounge and kitchen /dining areas. It would have been nice to have been offered some sort of compensation for the stress we initially went through!"

Take your buckets and spades to one of the gorgeous sandy beaches nearby, and enjoy a ferry trip across the mouth of the harbour from Mudeford Quay to the sandbank with its colourful array of little beach huts.

- "A very good well equipped property in a very good location" - "We had a lovely week at Bosun Retreat. The cottage provided everything we needed and was situated in an excellent location for exploring the area." - "Very comfortable accomodation for the six of us (two couples and two children). Living area could have been laid out a bit better for number of bedrooms but we made it work. The beds were very comfortable and multiple bathrooms/WCs meant no fighting over showers, etc. The only one slight negative remark from the group is that one of the duvets in the children's room (the twin room) had a very noisy duvet. I think it was made from waterproof/plastic and so it made quite a bit of noise whenever the person sleeping in that bed moved. Otherwise we we really pleased with the space. It was a good size, had a fully appointed kitchen, and was conveniently located."
