House holiday rentals in Southbourne

Fabulous place to stay, had all we needed. Beautiful area of the country.

We were looking for somewhere in the New Forest area to celebrate our wedding anniversary with family. This house was perfect for us all, 8 adults and 5 grandchildren. The house is in a beautiful, quiet location which is exactly what we wanted. The house has everything you need and more, fully fitted kitchen with massive island and dinning table. All rooms were spotless as well as the many toilets and bathrooms. We stayed in the master bedroom which is very tastefully decorated. The swimming pool was a big bonus, perfect size and depth for our Grandchildren and very warm. It also had a padlocked gate to keep the little ones out when playing in the garden. Our host Katie was brilliant from start to finish keeping us updated on the stay and very responsive to messages. She provided a welcome food pack of sausages, bacon, bread and essentials which was really appreciated. Katie even took the time to let our grandchildren help her feed her horses. Can’t wait to return!

We stayed at Sam’s place to celebrate my husbands birthday. From the start Sam was responsive, friendly, answered questions and gave some fab advice. When I made a request she did everything she could to make it happen. The caravan itself is in a lovely peaceful part of the park with easy walking distance to the woods for the dog to have a run and also to the beach where we wandered to the pub and then back for an ice cream. Sam clearly explained how everything worked, where everything was & what she was doing to make things perfect for her guests. Her guide for things to do was really helpful so our days were filled and never dull. I would call this caravan a proper family home, it does everything it’s suppose to so you can just relax and enjoy your holiday. When I had some sad family news, Sam went out of her way to make sure we were ok and that we didn’t need to rush out the caravan on check out, so if you want a proper family home from home that does what it says - visit here! 🩷

We hired this for a few days with family to celebrate my nans 70th birthday. Absolutely beautiful house and gardens and the facilities are amazing. We live locally so knew about the area but loved having a swimming pool, tennis courts and snooker table for all of us to enjoy. The lounge was bigger than we thought and comfortably sat all of us. We also received a helpful guide a few days before our stay which gave us all the information we needed. Overall a really lovely stay, thank you!

My daughter and I had a fabulous stay at Crystal Moon, it was like home from home. Anita has thought of everything! All your possible needs. Beautiful caravan inside and out, a wonderful holiday park with its leisure centre and lots to do locally. We loved it and will be back! Thank you Anita

We had a blissful few days at Flint cottage. Wonderful kitchen to cook in, and multiple fabulous farm shops nearby. We ordered a heat and eat pie and a DIY breakfast pack for our first night, which made the start of the holiday so much more chilled out. The outdoor bath was also really special. We were so comfortable throughout we just relaxed completely. Can’t wait to come back!

Fantastic stay on a lovely site. Very quiet corner location, tucked away although main parking space is under a tree so try to avoid if you don’t want lots of bird poo on your car!! Very clean caravan with lots of very thoughtful extras for every kind of guest. WiFi very reliable, access passes to site amenities sent over without needing to ask and clear instructions given for check out. Would stay here again.

A gorgeous little getaway for me & my family (wife & 2 boys - 6 & 15 months). Communication was excellent from start to finish & the information pack sent gave us everything we wanted. The stay was homely, comfortable & clean. A lovely hot shower & comfy beds. Decorated very nicely as photos suggested. Hoburne Park was ideal with loads of amenities for all (Heated Indoor pool a favourite with the boys). We were close to take in some lovely spots recommended locally to include crabbing at Mudeford Quay, Steamer Point Nature Reserve & even a beach day in Sandbanks. Travelling from Herts we included a visit to the oceanarium (Bournemouth) & ended the trip with a boat to Moors Valley Park which wasn’t far away at all. Thank you for a super memory. Aaron,Amy & the boys

Cracking location just a 5 minute walk from the beach. Well equipped and nicely laid-out cottage provided a very cosy retreat from some miserable February weather. Gorgeous walks and welcoming pubs in all directions. Thanks for a great weekend!

Amazing place

An absolutely beautiful home with outstanding facilities - our stay was perfect from start to finish. Gemma was incredibly helpful and attentive in the lead up. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!

The property is very spacious with excellent bedrooms and large living and dining rooms. Lovely location a very short distance from both the beach and the town centre. It was great for all the family with a good sized double and two single rooms on one floor and a huge double on the other. I would highly recommend the accommodation and would definitely stay again. I also had the pleasure of meeting the host who was very friendly and welcoming.

Just back from a wonderful 4 nights with my daughters and grandchildren. On 3 levels so plenty of room for everyone. Great location and lots to see and do. Great that the lovely clean beach is just across the road. Lots of fun memories made. Elaine is a lovely, communicative host. Thankyou Elaine from us all.

What a wonderful find, location, location, location! The lodge is right on the river where you can watch the daily foray of boats, paddle boards, canoes and wildlife. The lodge itself was very clean with plenty of storage and cupboard space. Gorgeous outside space with strategically placed hammocks and chairs to watch the world go by. I had a massage in the spa which was wonderful and we all went in the sauna with its cold water pool, all on site, what an experience! Christchurch high street is 2 mins away with its many restaurants and shops. I would definitively recommend this Airbnb.

A beautiful, modern and spotlessly clean property in an unbeatable location. Top quality fittings and furnishings. Amazing views day and night, especially with a glass of wine on the decking. Highly recommended for a family getaway, you’ll love it.

Fabulous house, so peaceful Very well stocked with everything you could need Would recommend

We had an amazing time, This house was lovely, just like the description, perfect for a holiday. The host was easy to communicate with and the instructions were very clear. The area is lovely, backing into a horse field with beautiful views. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice holiday in the new forest. Thank you for a lovely holiday and great memories.

We have had a lovely stay at this beautiful cottage with the family this May half term. The house itself was very stylish and clean, had everything you would need for a Comfortable stay. The Garden was beautiful and huge, the BBQ area was great and we very much enjoyed out evenings meals out there under the heaters listening to music. The location of the house was great, a short drive to many popular attractions, we went to Weymouth one day, Durdle door/ Lulworth cove another and Corte Castle itself. Across the road is a lovely walk up to the castle from the house, roughly 3 miles in total there and back, our littles ones loved it. Paul was a great host, always very good at responding to requests/ messages. Sent us some great local recommendations too. Would definitely recommend this home stay to friends and family.

Lovely, comfortable house, all exa tly as described, very smart, very clean, very comfortable, very well equipped. Quiet location but an easy walk to the beach and quay. Would highly recommend!

Nice accommodation. Kids liked the toys that was available. Parking was fine. Nearby local restaurant by the church/sea was lovely. Michael was quick at responding and asking any queries we had.

Fabulous home. Perfect for our family holiday as you can all spread out to different areas, and also large enough to all enjoy spaces together. Our toddler and my father absolutely loved the garden. It’s the perfect size, and so peaceful. My husband and I enjoyed the Games room (really fun with the neon lights and disco lights on whilst playing Pacman! ) and my mum loved playing the piano in there. My Gran enjoyed snoozing in the sunroom. All spotlessly clean. Beds all comfy. Great there’s a twin room and toilet/ shower room downstairs as that worked well for my Gran so she didn’t have to negotiate the stairs. Brilliant location just a few minutes away from the village or seafront. Excellent communication throughout. Thank you for a gorgeous stay.

We found Sami's place amazing, clean, great location and plenty of room for us all. the house definitely matched the photos and check in was very simple for us. Sami was a great host, friendly and easy to talk to with any issues. a very short walking distance from the beach and would definitely recommend this place. Thank you

Beautiful and spotlessly clean home. Joanna was extremely helpful throughout the stay. Thank you, Joanna!

Absolutely fabulous place. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The hot tub was wonderful and a welcome addition to start (and finish) the day. The location is great for exploring Dorset. We took a lovely walk to Highcliffe Castle along the beach and enjoyed Mudeford Quay as well. Christchurch, Bournemouth, Swanage and Weymouth are all within reach for a day out. There are shops and supermarkets within walking distance (through the rear park) and restaurants close by too. The house itself was much larger than the pictures seem to show and the four of us (all adults) had no problem relaxing and feeling at home. Netflix in both bedrooms and the lounge was a great addition and the welcome wine and chocolates was a great touch. I highly recommend this house for a thoroughly enjoyable stay in Dorset.
