Best of Bournemouth and the New Forest

With its picture-postcard pier, miles of sandy beaches and traditional British seaside fayre, Bournemouth seems the quintessential coastal stereotype. 

However, with its distinctive upside-down house nestled among the Victorian buildings, biologically diverse gardens and thriving cultural scene, Bournemouth provides the perfect location from which to explore its quirks, make some waves or simply relax.    

Cast off at Poole’s bustling quayside and enjoy a relaxing cruise with uninterrupted views around the harbour and its surrounding islands.   

Wild horses won’t be able to drag you away from this idyllic destination, especially after a tour of the New Forest, with its famous equine inhabitants, spectacular landscapes and unique heritage.
