Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Highcliffe

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

Ian's place is in a great location - the beach is 5 mins walk at the end of the road. The Paddle cafe (1 min walk) is perfect for a morning coffee or brunch, and very friendly. You are on the doorstep of the New Forrest, and can access some great beaches within 5-10 mins drive too. The space was great for our family - nice big living room and well-sized, clean rooms too. Ian was very responsive too.

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.

A truly special place. The pictures actually don’t do justice to how spacious it is, and how immaculate and well thought out it is, and the Wind in the Willows theme works perfectly in the peaceful surroundings of the riverbank. It’s a really calming and cosy place, and sitting eating breakfast by the riverbank was a joy. The spa bathroom is an extra treat on top. Chris and Judy were extremely proactive and we arrived fully informed with local recommendations and everything was easy to check in and out. We met Judy on the second day who very kindly greeted us and gave us more tips on things to do nearby. We hope one day to return!

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!

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 thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Amanda was really helpful beforehand, going out of her way to get recommendations as we had our baby with us. In addition, Amanda added extra child-friendly items that were really handy and thoughtful. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated, cosy, feels luxurious and is very comfortable. It was great to be able to walk to the Tesco metro and the patisserie! Easy access to seafront along Sandbanks, and we did a short drive to Alum Chine for an easy beachfront walk to Bournemouth. Highly recommend Oceanarium for children! Highly recommend the cottage and would stay again.

We have just returned from the most amazing week staying at the bolt hole. The house and location were just perfect and exactly what we needed for our two young energetic boys and dog. We spent plenty of time in the stunning garden and relaxing in the hot tub. Thank you so much Claire and Buster for making us feel so welcome and especially for allowing us to meet all of the animals. Freddie and Bertie will keep these memories for life and they are already missing playing with the dogs ( especially Fred ) and saying hello to Bernard every morning through the gate. We will definitely be back to stay again in the future.

Absolutely lovely and will definitely visit this apartment again. Thanks

It was such a cozy little place. my wife and I really wished we could have stayed a little longer. a short walk to the ocean, good restaurants nearby and easy to get to with plenty of space. Loved it there!

Last minute booking for myself and daughter to go riding at stables in local area. Perfect location surrounded by owners and guests horses. We even saw badgers in the field from kitchen window. And wonderful to wake up to views of horses. As stated by previous guests, flat is dated but more than made up by fact it is spotlessly clean and the double bed was extremely comfortable. Only slight downside if a couple are using double bed was that it can only be accessed from one side which wasn’t clear in photos. Sadly didn’t get to meet Helen but hopefully we’ll be able to come back again in future. Thank you for a lovely all too short stay.

We had a fantastic, relaxing stay at Foxholes Road! The property was spotless and modern. There were some lovely touches of fresh flowers on the table, dressing gowns, coffee pods and milk! The location was perfect to walk to the coast. Richard was very friendly and responsive. Would highly recommend Richard and his property!

Great location, lots of lovely little touches which really made me feel welcome. Loved the monkey curtain holder in the bedroom! I’d definitely use again.

Beth’ s place is amazing. A calm and peaceful haven. From the thoughtful welcome card to the incredibly kind extra touches like bread, milk and eggs. Beth has created the most fantastic experience for guests. We had a fabulous 8 nights and really recommend this as a perfect place to stay.

Craig's place was just as lovely as the images. Craig was proactive and accommodating too. All in all, I would rate it a 5-star experience and would come back again! One thing that stood out for me was that the supplies Craig had were what you would actually use at your own home. It's the small things that I tend to carry but did not need to bring - like my own handwash or toilet roll. Everything Craig stocked, was good quality. He even had 2 working fans in both the rooms. Loved the experience inside the house. The place was a walking distance from the beach, yet, close to the high street (but secluded enough). So, loved the experience outside the house too. I visited with my husband and elderly parents, so the staircase and the single beds were a little inconvenient for us, but honestly, the place is lovely for a young family.

Absolutely loved our stay in Southbourne, Bournemouth! The apartment was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed—including thoughtful extras like beach toys and games for kids. We especially appreciated the peaceful garden patio for relaxing mornings and evenings. The location couldn’t have been better: just a short walk to the beach, local shops. The host, Amanda, was responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-equipped base in a superb location.

Fabulous flat. Described perfectly by Jus. Very clean beautiful interior. Everything you need. Loved the little extras like shampoo and conditioner and shower gel in bathrooms. Very comfy beds. Short walk to the end of the road to the beach. We brought our dog. He was well looked after with doggy treats and a fabulous dog friendly beach awaited. Even shorter walk to the high street with great restaurants. Jus is a great communicator and nothing was too much bother. Thoroughly recommend we’ll be back!

We had a great experience at Stephen's apartament!All those pictures from the site,they don't do justice ,for it's real beauty!The view from the apartament it's idyllic,just stunning☺️☺️We loved everything,the bed it's really comfy,a big bonus for the electric blinds and cleaning,loved the aesthetic decorations,Stephen is 10 out of 10,his instructions for checking in were very clear and helped us a lot!Great communication!Keep it up!Thanks for having us.

I had a great stay in Rebecca’s flat. It’s clean and tidy and well stocked with all you could need for short and longer stays and with some lovely, complimentary goodies. The flat has its own dedicated parking space and the location offers easy access to local shops, cafes and restaurants and is within good access to the beach. Rebecca was flexible in amending my stay duration which I appreciated, thank you.

Julie was a fantastic host, she was very responsive and helpful. The flat was lovely, it was in a great central location and was well equipped, homely and pristine. There were thoughtful touches such as the welcome hamper and a useful parking permit. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or to return again.

Just what we expected,some really nice touches like the biscuits and fruit. Quiet and private.

Claire's apartment was lovely with beautiful views of the sea! All three of the bedrooms were huge with really comfy beds, our children loved the toy box and my daughter was particularly fond of a cushion with seagulls on it :) It was so great to have all the extras for staying with a baby and young children, including next-to-me cot, highchair, children's toilet seat and step and tableware. We loved the location, perfect for both a short walk to Alum Chine beach and a quick drive to Bournemouth Pier and the Aquarium. My daughter asked if we could come back every Father's Day! :D x

Sam's place was beautiful. My friends and I loved every moment at her place! The location and view is stunning, just a few minutes away from the beach and many other great spots. The apartment is so peaceful and spacious and the perfect place to wind down and relax. A perfect stay, we can't wait to visit again!

Lovely stay at Kathryn's flat. Myself and my two small boys spent 2 days here over half term and we had an amazing time. We found parking directly outside, we didn't need to move the car for our whole stay, everything was walking distance. Beach, restraunts, Pier, parks, cinema etc. The flat had all the amenities we needed and it was like a home away from home. I will be sure ti book again next year! Sash
