A grand coastal retreat created for unforgettable time together. Set across three floors, this beautifully styled eight-bedroom Bournemouth home pairs impressive proportions with a warm, elegant feel — from its sweeping social spaces and statement kitchen to the light-filled games room, private garden and hot tub. Gather for long dinners, fireside evenings and games of pool, then retreat to eight restful bedrooms and five bathrooms, with private parking and Boscombe Beach close by.
Step inside and the scale of the house begins to reveal itself. Behind its handsome exterior is a beautifully composed home stretching across three floors, where traditional proportions meet fresh, coastal-inspired interiors and rooms flooded with natural light.
The layout has been designed generously, with distinct spaces for cooking, dining, relaxing and entertaining rather than asking one room to do everything. It gives a full house an unusual sense of ease — lively when everyone is together, but with plenty of places to peel away and enjoy a quieter moment.
? By the Bournemouth Coast
Set in Boscombe, you’re well placed to make the coast part of your stay, with Boscombe Beach, its pier and the seafront nearby and Bournemouth’s attractions, restaurants and wider coastline within easy reach.
Days can begin with plans for the beach and end back at the house over dinner, a game of pool or a dip in the hot tub — a lovely balance between exploring Bournemouth and enjoying where you’re staying.
? Living & Dining
The sitting room has a polished, almost boutique-hotel feel. Deep navy seating, warm rust accents and a fireplace bring richness to the room, balanced by tall windows and a softer, light-filled backdrop.
Nearby, the separate dining room gives meals a sense of occasion. The long table is made for the whole party to gather properly, whether that’s breakfast before heading out or dinner with nowhere else you need to be.
Having two distinct rooms also means the evening doesn’t have to happen in one place — conversation can carry on around the table while others settle into the lounge.
? The Kitchen
The kitchen is impressive in both scale and finish, with a substantial central island, extensive cabinetry and generous stretches of worktop.
Bar seating makes the island a natural perch for morning coffee or keeping the cook company, while the sheer amount of preparation space makes catering for a fuller house feel far less daunting.
Bright, streamlined and highly sociable, it’s one of those kitchens people naturally seem to gravitate towards.
? Games Room
The conservatory changes the pace completely.
Filled with daylight beneath its glazed roof, it houses the pool table and creates a dedicated place for a little friendly competition. It’s particularly useful when different generations or groups want to do their own thing — and inevitably becomes the setting for more than a few rematches.
? Garden & Hot Tub
The garden gives the house another generous living space outdoors.
A broad paved terrace provides plenty of outdoor seating, with greenery surrounding the space and room for everyone to enjoy the fresh air without feeling squeezed around a small patio.
The hot tub sits within the garden too, ready for an evening soak after the beach or a slower afternoon when staying home sounds better than making plans.
? Eight Individual Bedrooms
Upstairs, the atmosphere becomes noticeably calmer.
Across the upper floors are eight bedrooms, individually styled in soft blues, sage greens, warm peach and natural tones. Large windows, bay details and generous proportions give several of the rooms real presence, while the overall palette keeps them restful.
A considered mix of doubles and twins makes the arrangement particularly flexible, with two twin rooms also offering an additional pull-out bed when required.
Rather than feeling like rows of identical bedrooms, each has its own character — giving guests somewhere that feels distinctly theirs for the stay.
? Five Bathrooms
With five bathrooms, including two en-suites, the house is well prepared for busy mornings and evenings.
There’s a combination of walk-in showers alongside a spacious bathroom with both a bath and separate shower, while heated towel rails and clean contemporary finishes carry the considered feel of the bedrooms through to the bathrooms.
? Private Parking
Another valuable advantage for a house of this size is the generous private parking space outside.
There’s plenty of room for guests arriving by car, making group arrivals easier and giving you the freedom to explore more of Bournemouth and the Dorset coast during your stay.
✨ More Than Somewhere to Sleep
There’s a certain rhythm to a stay here: coffee around the island, a day beside the sea, somebody starting a pool tournament while dinner is being prepared, and everyone eventually finding their way back around the table.
Then there’s the garden, hot tub, fireside lounge and eight separate bedrooms when the evening takes its own course.
It’s a house with enough character to make staying in feel like part of the holiday — and enough on the doorstep to make you want to head out and explore.
? The House is Yours
You’ll have the entire house and everything around it to yourselves throughout your stay, giving everyone the freedom to settle in and enjoy the property at their own pace.
From the living and dining rooms to the kitchen, eight bedrooms and games room, there’s plenty of space to spread out while still enjoying the house together.
? Inside & Out
Step outside and the garden becomes another part of the stay, with generous outdoor seating and the hot tub ready for slower afternoons and relaxed evenings.
? Arriving by Car
There’s plenty of private parking at the property, making arrivals much easier when several households, families or friends are travelling together.
Make yourselves at home, enjoy everything the house has to offer, and simply treat the property and its surroundings with care.
? Your Time, Your Space
Once you’ve settled in, we’ll leave you to enjoy the house and your time together without unnecessary interruption.
? Here When You Need Us
If a question comes up or you need a little help during your stay, simply send us a message. We’ll be on hand when needed, while giving you the privacy to make the house feel like your own.
Boscombe gives you a lovely combination of classic Bournemouth coastline and a neighbourhood with a character of its own. From sandy mornings and walks beside the water to cafés, green spaces and days exploring further along the Dorset coast, there’s plenty here to shape a stay around.
? Boscombe Beach & Pier
Boscombe Beach is one of the area's real highlights, with a broad sandy shoreline looking across Poole Bay. At the centre of the seafront, Boscombe Pier brings together sea views, places to eat and drink, and activities including bouldering and slacklining. Watersports equipment hire is also available around the beach.
It makes the coast easy to enjoy however you like it — an early walk beside the water, an afternoon on the sand or simply finding somewhere for a drink with a sea view.
? A Greener Side of Boscombe
Just back from the seafront, Boscombe Chine Gardens offers a completely different change of pace. Landscaped gardens run inland from opposite the pier, with grassy spaces, mature trees, a café, mini golf and a children's play area.
It’s a lovely option for families or for those moments when you fancy greenery rather than sand between your toes.
? Follow the Coast
One of the pleasures of this part of Bournemouth is how connected the coastline feels. The promenade leads west towards Bournemouth and east beyond Boscombe, so a simple seafront walk can easily become part of the day's plans.
Head towards Bournemouth Pier and you’ll find Bournemouth's livelier central seafront, with restaurants, cafés, gardens and visitor attractions clustered around the beach and pier.
? Days Out, Easy Evenings
Boscombe has its own selection of places to eat, drink and pick up everyday essentials, while central Bournemouth opens up even more choice when you fancy heading further afield.
That balance works particularly well for this house: days can be as full as you want them to be, knowing you have the garden, hot tub, games room and all that space waiting when you come home.
? Explore on Foot
Once you’re down by the seafront, walking is one of the nicest ways to experience the area. The promenade connects Boscombe with Bournemouth, making it possible to turn getting from one place to another into a coastal walk rather than simply a journey.
? Arriving by Train
For rail travel, Pokesdown is the nearest station to Boscombe Beach, with Bournemouth station another option for wider connections. BCP Council lists Pokesdown at approximately 1.2 miles from Boscombe Beach and Bournemouth station at approximately 1.8 miles.
? Around Bournemouth
Local bus services connect Boscombe with Bournemouth and the surrounding area, giving guests another option when they’d rather leave the car at the house.
? By Car
With private parking at the house, arriving with several cars is much simpler, and having your own transport gives you the freedom to explore beyond Bournemouth during a longer stay.
? A Different Route Along the Seafront
During its operating season, Bournemouth's land train runs an eastbound service between Bournemouth Pier and Boscombe, adding a fun alternative to walking the promenade — particularly with younger guests. Services are seasonal and weather dependent, so timings are worth checking before setting off.
? Three Floors of Space
The house is arranged across the ground, first and second floors. Its scale is part of what makes it so well suited to shared stays, but guests should be comfortable using stairs to reach the bedrooms and facilities on the upper levels.
? Flexible Sleeping
There are eight bedrooms with a mixture of double and twin arrangements. Two of the twin rooms also have an additional pull-out bed, offering useful flexibility when planning who sleeps where.
? Hot Tub
The garden hot tub is available for guests to enjoy, adding a particularly relaxing finish to beach days and evenings at home.
? A Shared Stay
This is a generous home in a residential setting, so while there is plenty of room to enjoy yourselves, we ask guests to be considerate of neighbouring homes and keep outdoor noise to a respectful level, particularly later in the evening.
? Travelling With Little Ones
A travel cot and high chair are available on request — just let us know if you’d like either arranged for your stay. The travel cot is provided without bedding for safety, so please bring suitable cot bedding with you.
? Arrival & Departure
Check-in is from 3pm, with checkout by 10am, giving our team time to carefully prepare the house between stays.
? Before You Arrive
Further practical information about your stay will be provided before arrival, so you can spend less time thinking about logistics and more time looking forward to the trip.
