Hotels in Bournemouth and surrounding area:

Bournemouth is one of the largest seaside resorts in the south of England, and it is renowned for its seven miles of golden beaches and beautiful parks and gardens. Bournemouth offers entertainment and attractions for both young and old, but undoubtedly the mile after mile of clean, soft, golden beaches are the biggest attraction by far.
Beach fun includes hiring your very own beach chalet complete with four deckchairs and, for the more energetic, riding the Shockwave speedboat .... 10 minutes of pure exhilaration! Take a stroll along Bournemouth Pier or book a day trip cruise on the Dorset Belle from the pier approach. Experience the wealth of entertainment and amusements available and when you fancy a bite to eat, take your choice from the restaurants, bars and bistros, offering everything from traditional English fare to the finest exotic cuisines. Bournemouth’s Town Centre provides a great choice of shops and boutiques in a traditional setting, and for a big night out, the entertainment capital of the south coast never disappoints with everything from end-of-pier farces, one off concerts, top comedians, off-the-wall plays and West End shows on offer.
Travel slightly further afield, and you’ll find stately homes, ruined castles and picturesque villages. Alternatively, you can savour the beauty of the New Forest, drink in the splendour of Dorset’s spectacular World Heritage Jurassic coastline; or enjoy the rolling countryside where Thomas Hardy lived.
