Bedrooms are large. Parking on drive is plenty and there is a generous garden with outdoor seating. Highcliffe beach is just a 5 minute walk away which is a lovely large beach, not over crowded with views over to Isle of Wight. Also just a short drive away is the New Forest national park. Bournemouth is only a short drive also if you need facilities of a big town. ##### Chris S.
