Luxury villa with swimming pool, close to beaches

RuthRating, 5 stars20 months ago
We had a really lovely time in this beautiful home. The pools (swimming and table!) were a real hit with all of us. The little ones loved running in the garden and playing football as well as swimming. We had a very relaxing time celebrating a big event.

Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Sauna, Games - Upton Bourn

NeilRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This place covers all the bases for a great stay for a big family get together! Excellent communications, nice welcome and then all the things to keep three families from ages 3-16 entertained. Private pool great, Games Room great, Hot Tub was spot on and actually hot (unlike so many that aren't)! Sauna probably needs some renovation love. Bedrooms great, enough space. Devonshire Arms nice food, Halfway House nice beer and vibes. All the ingredients for a place to kick back and have some much needed family time. Highly recommend!

East Street Beach House - a luxury home by the sea

WayneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Travelled to Island for my wife’s aunts 80th birthday and 60th wedding anniversary celebrations. House was just as described, clean, spacious, comfortable and ideally located for seafront and high street. Extremely well equipped kitchen plus welcoming items including sourdough , butter, preservatives , milk, orange juice and shortbread. Spacious lounge with planting of seating. My wife and daughter loved the soaps, shower gels and fresh smells in the bathrooms. I thoroughly recommend this property and would re book if returning to the Island Tips: Grab the double room on 3rd floor if you prefer medium to soft mattress and watching tv in bed! We felt the middle bedroom mattresses were a bit on the hard side for us personally but this would not stop me from rating this property 10/10.

Highlands - sleeps 8 - home from home

ClaireRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a lovely stay at Highlands, we felt right at home and relaxed with beautiful sea views to look at. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very clean, comfortable and spacious. The living spaces and kitchen were well equipped and spacious too. We did drive past the house when finding it, mostly because of road closures in the area and being unsure which ones you were allowed to drive down, you have to go down one labelled as 'closed ahead' in order to get to it. We could easily explore the Island from here with our car, and had a lot of fun doing so. Ventnor espalande is walkable but very steep coming back and if you have any ailments it might be tricky. We were so lucky with the weather and made use of the garden area, even saw a sand lizard! Overall a lovely stay and we would definitely come back. Thank you!

ShahanazRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We loved our stay here, perfect for a break away from city life! Big shout out to Alex and Rob for being great hosts, they were friendly, responsive and helped us with any difficulties we had. I loved that they had a chimnea, which allowed us to enjoy the beauty of a fire pit and the night sky. There is a river behind the house, which we loved exploring the area of. Would definitely recommend if you want a peaceful getaway, around nature.

A great place for a group gathering - 12 single beds! And the living spaces are well laid out and spacious. Outdoor area good too. It's a bit lacking character but made up for by the practicalities. It's very near the beach and convenient for access to boscombe and central bournemouth. Can recommend.

Family house Bournemouth - spa, garden, parking

NizakatRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Excellent host, really good and clear communication. We booked this the day before so didn't get time to read all the instructions so had a few questions and got the answers from the host. House is very clean and plenty of beds so ideal for big groups. Main reason we booked this place was the hot tub, hot tub was great we used a it a couple of times, its in the garden and has a cover so even if its raining you can use it. Over all good place, value for money.
