Get away from the hustle and bustle – relax and soak up the peace and tranquillity that is ‘The View’.

As soon as you enter this waterfront apartment, you are immediately drawn to the calming tidal waters of Mudeford Harbour and the panoramic views to the Isle of Wight and Needles. Casting your eyes over the lovely garden where you can relax with a book or just soak up the summer sun, you realise you are a stone’s throw from the water. On the horizon is the dramatic headland known as Hengistbury Head, once owned by Harry Selfridge. This is an outstanding site for wildlife and archaeology, free of cars, which offers beautiful beaches and the Mudeford sand spit with its quirky café, famous beach huts and the popular transport links of the Noddy train and ferry.

As you look to your right you see Stanpit Marsh, a 160 acre nature reserve home to many endangered plants and an ornithologist's dream. In the evening you often hear the calming bird chorus!

‘The View’ offers two double bedrooms, one with a super king bed. We pride ourselves on your sleep being as relaxing as the fabulous sunrises and sunsets that ‘The View’ offers, as you sink into the luxurious mattresses and feel the warm hug of the famous 5* Intercontinental duvets, pillows and linen.

On cooler days, why not recline on the sofa and chairs on the glass fronted balcony, where you can soak up the sun. If you prefer to be indoors then gaze at the view through the patio doors whilst benefiting from the ergonomically friendly chairs and sofa.

At the end of the day, cooking up a hearty dinner is easy in the well equipped kitchen and the centrepiece table that amply seats 6 is perfect for a social evening of board games, cheese and wine or just chilling.

This is the most idyllic location and we hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.

Escape the rat race, relax, and recharge!

Why not upgrade your visit and take relaxation to another level by booking a bespoke crystal therapy treatment, Reiki session or Energy healing with the reputable Crystal Balance Company who are located near to ‘The View’. As guests of ‘The View’ you qualify for a 15% discount.

What an amazing property! The location with the view over Christchurch Harbour is stunning, and there is so much to do nearby. The property itself is extremely well kitted out, to the point where it felt like we could just live here.The only tiny problem we had was with the wonderfully luxurious bed. It really was very comfortable, but the owner has provided lovely a lovely down quilt and feather pillows - a true luxury for most people, but not for two people with allergies! We didn't think to ask before we went becasue we've never encountered it before in the many properties we've rented over the years. Sadly, we couldn't use them and had to go and buy a hollow-fibre quilt for our stay. We'll know to ask from now on. None of this spoiled our stay though. This really is an exceptional property. Sitting on the balcony watching the sunset over the mere was lovely. We strongly recommend this place and would go again!
