If you’re looking for a slice of coastal calm, this quiet retreat in the heart of Dorset is it. The stylish living space is a cosy spot for kicking back and relaxing after sunny days down at Bournemouth beach, just five minutes away by car. The home’s elegant black and white colour scheme gives way to sleek furnishings, comfy throws, blankets and cushions, curated plants and an open fireplace that creates a modern yet homely interior. The high-spec kitchen comes with a breakfast bar and dining area, ideal for indulging in hearty breakfasts before hitting the surf. Plus, you’ll get a great night's sleep with both bedrooms benefitting from king-size beds. So pack your bags, bring your furry friends (they’re allowed) and don’t forget your book – whether you’re snuggling up around the fire or sunbathing on the beach, there are plenty of places here to catch up on literature or sneak in a well-deserved snooze.
