About The Location

Poole Harbour is the second largest natural Harbour in the world (after Sydney) with many marinas capable of mooring the largest of yachts. Poole is the home of Sunseeker Marine. The natural Harbour ensures safety and security for the yachts and the wonderful microclimate created by the Purbeck Hills makes for regular use of the water.

A love of sports, fine dining and the outdoors Sports are a feature of the area, with an interest in the water being ubiquitous amongst residents. The prestigious Royal Motor Yacht Club is on the Sandbanks peninsula, Salterns Marina (with construction started for a new luxury hotel and restaurants) is close by and the sailing centre of the area is Parkstone Yacht Club, also in Lilliput. Watching the kite surfers and windsurfers in this UK hub for the sports will leave you open mouthed. The Harbour is known to be the UK’s safest venue for teaching children to windsurf and kitesurf.

For eating out you are spoilt for choice in the area; Rick Stein’s in Sandbanks on the edge of the Harbour, the Pig on the Beach in Studland via the chain ferry, the Cliff and the Canford gastro pubs. Branksome Beach Cafe, Vesuvio and WestBeach are all directly on the promenade with additional eateries and fun at Ashley Cross and Westbourne. Parkstone Golf Club, one of the top 100 courses in the country is on your doorstep, as is the Isle of Purbeck Golf Course with its stunning panoramic views. The famous West Hants Tennis Club is within 4 miles.

The area has a large cycling community with a favourite destination being to take the Sandbanks chain ferry to explore the Purbeck Hills, and of course, Dorset’s Jurassic Coast is a must for walkers.

There are local gyms at the Sandbanks Yacht Company and The Everlast has a large gym, swimming pool and a host of exercise classes plus, of course, The Harbour development has its own gym, sauna and outdoor hot tub.
