About the host

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the seaside spirit here in the Bournemouth area. With Sandbanks to one end of the peninsula and the lively Bournemouth pier at the other, there are many beautiful Chines in-between in which to enjoy all this vast beach has to offer.
Nearby Durley Chine is at the bottom of a beautiful cul-de-sac which, at the end, has the most breath-taking view of trees leaning out into the sea. We felt like we were in the Amalfi Coast when we first saw this view!
The apartment itself has many original period features, with high ceilings and a secluded rear garden; perfect for barbecues, al fresco evenings and a space in which to relax.
I have really enjoyed creating the interior space inside this apartment so that it is a calm yet interesting place to return to after the the day at the beach or a bike ride in the nearby New Forest. My favourite details are the chinoiserie silk walls, upholstery from British heritage brands, restored antique Chateau doors and sumptuous linens from Feather and Black. Little luxuries make all the difference - you are on holiday, after all!

For me, the real jewel in Dorset's crown!
