The Neighbourhood:
The local neighbourhood is one of the most desirable holiday home locations in Dorset and the south coast of England. A hotspot particularly for watersports, nature enthusiasts, and beach lovers, the area is also synonymous with very high property prices and upmarket hospitality.
The 5 km stretch of sandy beach runs from Cubs Beach near to the Studland car chain ferry terminal at the end of the peninsula, through Sandbanks Beach and on to Canford Cliffs Beach towards Bournemouth, and is a paradise for swimmers, sunbathers, and dog walkers. On the opposite side to its famous sandy beach is Sandbanks Bay, within Poole Harbour, where many of the watersport facilities are based, for activities such as paddleboarding, windsurfing, sailing, canoeing, and jet skiing, amongst others.
Nearby, and accessible via a short ferry ride from the ferry terminal, is National Trust’s Brownsea Island, famous for its protected woodland, heathland and lagoon habitats; and wildlife, including rare red squirrels and birds. The island was the location of an experimental camp in 1907 that led to the formation of the Scout movement.
The main ferry route is via a car chain ferry connecting to Studland Bay and Isle of Purbeck region. This beautiful area features a long stretch of varied coastline, including Shell Bay Beach, Knoll Beach, Studland Beach, and South Beach; as well as quaint villages, a heritage railway, historical Corfe Castle, and Swanage Town at the very south of the peninsula.
The more urban areas of Poole and Bournemouth are very close by, and have a myriad of things to do and places to see, including museums, art galleries, theatres, and annual festivals.
