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!

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
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.

This property is ideally situated - just a few minutes from the beach and the ferry to Studland
The property is quite old but the owners are in the process of refurbishing it. The kitchen is very well equipped with a big fridge and cooker and all the equipment you could possibly need. The sitting area off the kitchen has a big TV with SKY and plenty of comfortable seating, There is a door out into the nice enclosed garden, with again plenty of seating and a table & umbrella. The main bedroom is upstairs, accessed by a very steep staircase - as the bathroom is downstairs, we let our son have that room. The two main downstairs bedrooms are quite spacious with good storage and then there is a small room with a bed and there is a travel cot. The bathroom and separate loo, are downstairs and could do with updating, but this is probably in the owners' minds. This property was ideal for us - 3 adults and two very small children. The house is very comfortable but not too smart so that we constantly had to worry about the children spoiling anything!

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

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

Great family break
Stayed for Easter for a long weekend. Property worked well for us. Lovely area and close to the beach. Didn’t need to use the bedroom upstairs, no toilet up there so a bit of luck. All communication throughout was perfect and very helpful.

Lovely little gem right next to the beach!
We loved this house, which felt homely and cosy unlike other properties in the Sandbanks area!
The large West facing garden, with seating and bbq are a bonus and gets sun all day until sunset too.
Plenty of sleeping options, modern kitchen with all essentials and a cosy living room too.
Off road parking is provided, so you can leave your car at home during your stay and walk to the quietest sandy beach in two minutes.
We will return, as our fussy six year old daughter who has Autism loved this property!
You won’t get better at this price in such a sought after area in Sandbanks.

Great place for Christmas
This is a real find and Kim couldn’t be more helpful. She even put out Christmas decorations to help us feel at home. The house is spacious and the kitchen extremely well equipped. The huge oven coped with Xmas dinner and the new heating system was easy to use. It is in a fantastic location, close to Sandbanks beaches and Poole Harbour. Parking is easy on the driveway. Xmas by the sea is to be recommended!

A Perfect Stay
This is our second stay and the location, house and property manager is second to none. The short stroll to the beach, water sports and the ferry crossing is so convenient. The facilities in the house and garden was perfect for our family and we had such a great time. Thank you Kim. We hope to be back very soon.
