About this property

Harbourside - a sandhills caravan that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Harbourside is a holiday home situated on the popular Sandhills Park in Mudeford (Plot 84)

Avon Beach is less than 100 metres away; close enough to be able to enjoy the beach but far enough away to be peaceful and sheltered from the wind.

Harbourside is equipped to high standards with everything you need to have a peaceful, relaxing holiday. Towels/linen/T towels are provided but we ask that you bring your own beach/pool towels.

There is a private parking space adjacent to the property, making it easy to unload your belongings.

The communal facilities are available for you to use - heated outdoor swimming pool, clubhouse with bar, Sky television and small gym. There is also a shop stocking basic items a launderette on site.


Mudeford

This stunning area has everything you could want to make your holiday enjoyable and memorable.

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. The New Forest is not far away with its stunning scenery, ponies and gorgeous villages to explore. Lymington is also half an hour away in the other direction (one of our favourite places) and here you can take a ferry over to the Isle of Wight or saunter around the Saturday market.

The Dorset region

Mudeford is a gorgeous place to stay, with the hustle and bustle of the quay where the children can go fishing for crabs, Avon Beach right outside and a short ferry ride to Hengistbury Head which is ideal for walking or cycling. Christchurch is only a few miles away with plenty of shops and, of course, the beautiful Priory and the river.

There is something for everyone to enjoy in this stunning place; water sports for the energetic or just sit and relax and read a book.

The caravan was of a good standard and very clean. its a location we are familiar with and is great for the beach and for the walks along the sea front. It's tight for for 4 adults as the second bedroom is a small twin. More than fine for two children. The pool is exceelent and heated which was good on a chilly morning.

Mr

Massively overpriced. Noise from adjoining road and car park caused by youngsters racing up and down until the early hours of the morning playing thumping music is unbearable. The property manager’s only advice was that it’s a lot worse in summer!

Hi Howard Thank you for your review and I understand from my colleague who you spoke to that you enjoyed your stay but were bothered by the noise that does sometimes occur from the public car park on Mudeford Quay. As my colleague said, it only happens occasionally and tends to be more prevalent during the summer holiday period. I also confirm that, as she said, she did report this noise incident.

Christchurch by the sea

Lovely area and caravan like new. Very comfortable and warm great location steps from the sea. Would have benefited from coffee tea milk satchels on arrival also no egg cups. Otherwise all was very pleasant and comfortable. Wouldn’t hesitate to visit again.

Harbourside

We found Harbourside situated on the edge of the park, with glimpses of the harbour through the trees. Just a few seconds walk to the seafront. It was well appointed everything you need. Very clean and comfortable. Happy to recommend it, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A nice touch was a welcome card and bottle of wine.

We’ll be back!

Absolutely fabulous accommodation. So clean and modern. Plenty of space and top quality finishes to everything. The site itself is quite small but we like that. We didn’t get to use the facilities as it was late in the season and we were only there for 3 nights. But the bar and pool area did look lovely. The location is premium too. Literally seconds away from the beach. All in all would thoroughly recommend anyone staying here. We had number 84 and we would be inclined to go back to that one if we get the opportunity to return.
