Great location and bedroom space

The location of property great for walking to beach and locate area super quiet on a night and off road parking a plus There isn’t a great amount of living space in this property a larger family may struggle but the outside patio was a great addition on sunny days Super communication from owner with recommendations of eating places and local area knowledge

Looked too good to be true

The information looked too good to be true ... but ... the house, the location, the cleanliness and the helpfulness of the owner were amazing. A fantastic stay in a beautiful area. There was so much to do and a lot of the time you do not need to drive,(always a plus when on holiday.) We all want to return. Will recommend it to everyone. The house was a home and little touches like fresh flowers on the kitchen table were an added bonus.

Wonderful property, incredible location!

We have thoroughly enjoyed our week away in Sandbanks. The location of this wonderful property could not be any more perfect with the beautiful uncrowded Sandbanks beach just a few minutes walk one way and the ferry and open top bus tour stop just a few minutes the other. The property was well suited for our broad age range and was very comfortable and well-equipped - a joyous home from home. We would go again in a heartbeat!

Sandbanks staycation

Lovely property and phenomenal location. Owner is lovely and very helpful in all circumstances. We had an hot water issue which she sorted immediately once contacted. Property is easily accessible by foot and by car to many attractions close by. The property itself could do with a bit of modernisation and some furniture upgrades but not a problem. The house itself was lovely and quaint. Very clean with a very well-equipped kitchen. The freezer drawer available is absolutely massive which was great for us as I brought frozen ready cooked meals with me. The stairs to the loft and very very steep. Pretty much vertical. I would not recommend putting children under 5 up there or anyone elderly, disabled or with any kind of limited mobility. Overall, a wonderful few days in beautiful Sandbanks. Thank you

Tired property in need of refurbishment

So disappointed to be greeted by weeds, broken fencing, an unkempt rear garden and wobbly paving slabs. The inside started positively with a modern kitchen (kitted out extensively with lots of pans and crockery and a useful extra large fridge and oven) but was let down by a tired shower room, staining on walls (damp?) staining on furniture and rug. The first night we were all freezing so had to use the heating from day two onwards even though we were on the beach in hot sunshine. The stairs to the first floor are very steep. Bbq was too dirty to use. A separate toilet was very useful and there are enough beds to sleep 10. Location is quiet and ideal for the beach, ferry and local cafes. There is off road parking for 3/4 cars.

Fab house, Great location, Family Fun

I’ll start with I would honestly love to own this holiday home and am confident 99% of people would agree. We were a family of seven and had a perfect early May bank holiday. Parking for 2 cars and located a 5 mins walk from the beach. The beach was amazing, soft sand and clear blue water. Although accessible for dogs we found it be be clean and well maintained. The nearest grocery store is a 10 min drive / 25-30 min walk. We did a online grocery shop which was delivered on the day of arrival which was a massive help. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious for us all to eat as a family. We treated ourselves to dinner at the local Haven hotel and the Rick Steins restaurant. We also found a great cafe bar called the Boatyard, perfect for a lazy afternoon drink. There were 4 bedrooms all spacious with adequate storage space. We didn’t have a problem with the steep stairs and ensured our 4 year old daughter was always accompanied when using the stairs. The lounge was comfy with a TV, SKY connection and good WiFi. Garden was a great size with enough seating for us all when the sun was out. We enjoyed a BBQ one evening by purchasing a few disposable barbecues. We will definitely be going back to Sandbanks and wouldn’t hesitate to rebook this house. Thank you to the owners who were so helpful from the booking stage to check out.
