Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Southbourne

Lovely place to stay within walking distance to the beach, my family had a great time here!

Kelli rescued us last minute when the place we had booked left a lot to be desired. My booking enquiry was responded to immediately and the house lived up to all expectations the photos give. Beautiful decor, friendly hosts, all amenities you could ask for, lovely location, comfy beds, perfect hot tub and so much more. I would not hesitate to stay here again and would thoroughly recommend it. Made a great location for our girls weekend but would equally be suitable for a family stay.

My family and I stayed at Laura’s beautiful house for a long weekend to celebrate my mums retirement. We had two family’s of 4 and my parents and there was plenty of room for all of us. The house is stunning, even nicer than the photos. Beautiful interiors with lots of nice areas to eat, relax and play for all generations. The house was a 15ish minute walk to a wonderful beach, which even on a hot bank holiday wasn’t that busy. The beach had good amenities like toilets and a great cafe 5 minute walk further. Laura was a great host, checking in the week before we went and was very responsive if we needed to ask anything. Would highly recommend staying here.

Just perfect ! Beautifully appointed accommodation which is both a touch of luxury and homely. The location could not be better , in the centre of Christchurch which is a friendly pretty town with lots of restaurants and shops. Excellent public transport so you can take a break from driving ! Chris and Judy catered for our every need and more .The welcome treats are a lovely touch .They are very responsive and friendly but very discreet . This is our favourite UK holiday destination Chris and Judys' will now be our 'go to' accommodation .

Stayed there for two days and had a very good overall stay. Experience of Helen’s property felt homely and very luxury. It’s clean, the views from the flat are amazing and it has all you need for your stay. Definitely would like to come again and explore the area more as there is a lot do.

We’ve just enjoyed a stay, very clean , we were a family of 12 , all different ages , plenty of room to enjoy the space , with lovely walks , literally few minutes to the beach. A great time had by all !

We just returned from a great stay. there were 10 adults and a baby in our group. The facilities were great and just as described. The house was very comfortable and clean and had everything we needed and more. Definitely a home to suit all ages.

A brilliant place and exactly what we needed for our weekend in Bournemouth. Chy was a really helpful host and easy to get in touch with.

This is one of the best Airbnb we have stayed at Pam is a wonderful Hostess, she greeted us as we arrived, went the extra mile showing us places to visit and how to get there, the flat was extremely well looked after, very spacious for two adults and our Labrador Dog who loved all the beaches and walks, spotlessly clean and the little extras Pam provided (milk, bread, butter, amongst other items) was very kind, we found our way around easy a couple of pubs nearby Cranleigh and Iford Bridge both in walking distance have good meal deals ( 2 mains for £14.99) lovely beer gardens too. Thank you for a very enjoyable 8 days Pam we are planning to be back next year x

A lovely little base for the solo traveller, with a private front door and free parking. Walkable distance to town and beach through lovely park and gardens. Hosts were responsive and helpful. Will come again.

We had a great stay at Matt’s place! The apartment was super clean and literally right next to Southbourne Beach—such a perfect spot for a family getaway. It was really handy having a patio door for loading and unloading the car, and everything we needed was close by. There’s a cute little café just down the road, the Co-op was fully stocked, and it’s just a short walk to some nice shops, bars, and restaurants. Overall, an ideal location and a really easy, comfortable stay. Would definitely come back. Thanks, Matt!

ideal quiet spot to stay in Bournemouth while I was working here. walking distance from buses and train station - also the space is decorated beautifully, - it was very calming!

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!

Enjoyed an amazing stay at this lovely apartment. The view is absolutely amazing from every window. Beach/sea as far as the eye can see. Very clean, comfortable beds and great local amenities. Would recommend to anyone. Hope to stay here again. 5* all the way.

wonderful location. lovely apartment. brilliant parking. everything we needed. walking distance to plenty of amenities and so close to the beach!

Had a lovely time close to the beach in Southbourne. Apartment has everything you could need for a comfortable stay and is in walking distance to everything including beaches, shops and decent pubs to eat. Spotlessly clean and also had the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in when using Airbnb !!! and we have stayed at quite a few. Would not hesitate to book again when in area.

The room was perfect and cosy, the view of the sea out the window was amazing!

Very sweet little cottage, beautifully decorated with everything you would need inside of it. Great location, with a nice pub down the road. We would definitely stay here again and recommend for all. The only downside is that it is situated on a busy road so at night you can sometimes hear the cars, but we didn’t mind.

Our 2nd time staying at Claire’s apartment and we will be back! Claire is a fantastic host, really friendly and helpful and was flexible to help our circumstances.

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!

Thank you for a beautiful accommodation! The whole family really enjoyed the apartment, the local area and of course the beach.

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

We had a delightful stay at Lee and Emma'a apartment, spotlessly clean with everything you could wish for we felt right at home. A short walk from the centre and it's restaurants it was ideal for us. We only stayed one evening but we would not hesitate to book again for a longer stay as the bed was super comfy too. Lee was very helpful and clear instructions were displayed in the property itself. Thank Lee and Emma it was an absolute pleasure to stay at your property and we thank you wholeheartedly for hosting us. 100% recommend 😊

Such a fantastic place to stay with great hosts too!! It was only a short walk to the beach and to the shops which was perfect for our family. But it was equally wonderful to be able to sit in the flat and look out at the stunning view of the sea too. It definitely felt like a home away from home! Thank you Louis!
