Thank you so much for your 5star review.
So pleased that you enjoyed your stay. It was lovely to meet you and I shall look forward to seeing you again.
Excellent studio with beautiful outlook over the river. Good size bathroom with shower. Although there's not a cooker or hob, everything else in the kitchen is well equipped, microwave, kettle and plenty of crockery/cutlery and cupboard space. The beds were comfortable and everything was spotless. The hosts were very welcoming and very thorough in explaining how everything worked.

Thank you for giving us such an excellent review. It was a pleasure to have such a pleasant and quiet couple staying in our Studio. We hope you will come again.
Graham & Pat
Lovely setting and location. Well looked-after property. Pleasant and welcoming owners. Ideal for Christchurch, local beaches, New Forest, and the rest of Dorset and Hampshire.
On arrival Graham and Pat made us very welcome, our first impressions of the studio was that it was immaculate and great detail was given to cleanliness for Covid 19.
Graham and Pat were great hosts during our 7 days stay. A lovely garden to sit ,relax and enjoy the riverside. Very peaceful.
Everything we needed in the studio and the weather was perfect
All amenities close by and beaches within a few minutes drive.
Lovely cliff top walks.
Thanks to Graham and Pat for a lovely holiday
We had a great weeks stay and loved the views over the river and all within walking distance from the town we will come again. The owners are very friendly and helpful.
We were looking for somewhere to enjoy a brief relaxing holiday preferably with a view and thus was certainly that. Beautiful garden and views of the river, always something to watch and enjoy.
Very comfortable studio apartment the owners live above and could not be more helpful.
The location is perfect for a base to explore short walk into town where there is plenty of very good food choices.
We will definitely be returning next year , and that says it all many thanks

Location, location, location.
This waterfront studio could not be better situated. On a quiet road with easy off road parking and within a short walk of everything in Christchurch we couldn't be more satisfied. The view from the patio over the river pleased us no end as there was always something of interest to see on the river and in the park beyond.
The kitchenette is sufficient if you wish to eat in or there are plenty of eateries within walking distance. Everything was clean and comfortable and the owners were friendly and very approachable.
Just off a main thoroughfare it was very easy to get to Bournemouth or the New Forrest.

Superb position for a holiday apartment. Watching the boats sail past the bottom of the garden was just wonderful. The flat was excellent and Graham and Pat could'nt have been more accommodating.

Super Location.
As the add states, it's a fairly basic studio apartment.
Kitchen only has a microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge but with all the restaurants within walking distance this is really not an issue.
The studio was spotless, and had everything needed for a stay. Two single beds, two armchairs for watching the telly, a small table and chairs. Crockery and cutlery is also available if you want to eat in the apartment.
Graham is a lovely gentleman. Took his time to explain everything when I arrived, and although I did not need to call on him till I left, I'm sure if there were any problems he would have sorted them straight away.
I had a lovely stay and hope to return with my wife when we can arrange some time off together.
Thanks for a lovely stay.

About the host
Hosted by Pat Gibson
Pat has been letting this Studio for a few years now I enjoy meeting my new and returning guests. Although it is just one room with bathroom en-suite many guests return each year because of the superb position. They like the fact it is on the ground floor with its own patio outside and the ability to wander down the garden and enjoy the river view.
Why they chose this property
Christchurch is a lovely town with easy access to Bournemouth , New Forest and the beaches. So many places to visit and lovely walks
What makes this property unique
The riverside location. There always boats , ducks, swans, paddle boarders and people to watch.
