  • "The Anchorage is a beautiful, clean and comfortable apartment."

    It is decorated in nice neutral shades. On arrival there was a lovely Lemon cake and fresh flowers in a vase and milk in the fridge. It felt really homely and welcoming. This is the second time we have stayed in one of Helen’s apartments and it certainly didn’t disappoint. It’s only a short walk along the street to the beach or a nice walk through the Chine to the seafront. It’s set in the middle so a lovely walk to Bournemouth pier one way and a nice stroll to Sandbanks the other. We would definitely recommend this apartment to our friends and family and yes we certainly would stay here again. Thank you Helen and family for making our stay happy and comfortable. Debbie.

    So pleased to hear you had a lovely time. Hopefully we will see you again very soon. Property Owner

  • "The apartment was just beautiful!"

    Very spacious with lovely neutral decor and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners left a home baked cake and fresh flowers for our arrival which was a lovely treat. Communication and helpfulness from the owners was faultless. The location was absolutely perfect for us as the dog friendly beach was a short stroll along the promenade. We also found that many of the restaurants were also very accommodating if you have a four legged friend. A perfect base for exploring this stunning part of the country.

  • "Spent a week at The Anchorage in May with my elderly mother, with her dog."

    Very near the beach for dog walks twice a day. Mum has reduced mobility so the apartment was suitable as it is on the ground floor and one level, with an excellent walk in shower. Hosts were excellent providing a few hidden extras I have never experienced before including a freshly baked cake Thank You :)

  • "Beautiful apartment, good location close to park, beach, Westbourne."

    Lovely open plan comfy sitting area/kitchen/dining. 2 bedrooms ( one small idea for kids) listing is for 6 people but I would suggest only for 4 as 2 on sofa wouldn’t work for most people (don’t think it’s a sofa bed). Master bedroom gets a lot of condensation and windows roadside so important to air it morning. We really enjoyed our stay as a family of 4 and would be happy to visit again. Gorgeous welcome cake on arrival that was very much appreciated. Lovely neutral decor and views from lounge.

The property

Nestled within the coast of the picturesque Dorset town of Bournemouth, The Anchorage is a ground-floor apartment ideal for a family or two couples.

Park off-road and make your way into a tastefully decorated open-plan living area, a real social hub where you will find a contemporary kitchen with ample amenities, great for cooking up a storm, and you can enjoy a heart-warming meal at the dining table, before indulging in a glass of wine as you recline on the large corner sofa, or there is the option of two balconies with furniture, reachable through French windows which allow in seas of light and the salty air.

Both of the bedrooms are stylish, so choose between a king-size bedroom and a twin that can be set up as a super-king-size on request; after which you can soak the sand from your hair in the contemporary shower room.

Bournemouth is a fantastic location, and you will find a stunning sandy beach within a short walk of the property, ideal for walks with your four-legged family member, watersports or a picnic.

Bournemouth offers a great selection of tasty eateries, convenience stores for your essentials and independent shops for you to browse at your leisure, and there are also several local theatres, the Russell Cotes Art Gallery and Museum and scenic walks along the West Cliff Zig-Zag.

A little further from the property you will find Christchurch, with its beautiful historic church, a golf course, and nature reserve at Hengistbury Head.

Travel to Poole for its yacht club, scenic parks and coastal views, or the little ones can enjoy an action packed afternoon at Lemur Landings.

Fall in love with the coast of Dorset with a stay at The Anchorage.
