“Harbour View is exceptional.”

It is brilliant for people with mobility issues like myself. The owner Clare is amazing, goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome, Clare’s baking is too die for and the fresh homemade bread also. The views are amazing so relaxing. The week went too quick. Will definitely be back.

- Mrs Tait, September 2020
“Upon arrival met by Clare who was extremely welcoming.”

The accommodation was perfect everything you would need was there. I was blown away by the garden and it’s views. Clare has a bird feeder which we topped up everyday. It was very calming and relaxing watching the birds feed mainly a huge family of sparrows added to the views out to the marsh. In the distance with the binoculars we were able to get a close up of horses grazing. Would highly recommend a holiday here.

- Mrs Foster, August 2020
“A perfect home in a super location, Everything we needed was supplied.”

There’s so many great places close to visit and to walk the dog and we even took the hosts kayaks out on the water to get a closer look at the wild ponies and birds, so tranquil! Overall a wonderful relaxing holiday in a idealic location with a great host, we’ll be back! 10/10!!

- Mrs Haines, July 2020
“Great location,lovely view from the garden onto the sea.”

Clare was a great hostess and her home made bread was amazing. Great walks around for the dog. we will back again hopefully soon

- Mr Fletcher, March 2020
“The cottage, garden & view were all wonderful.”

Our host Clare welcomed us at the property & had made us amazing macaroons & muffins & delivered home made bead to our door at 7.30 in the morning. Mudeford is a delight. We didn't venture out to.the local pubs or restaurants in the evening as we had evwrything we needed & didn't want to leave the cottage & the view.

- Mrs Whitehead, March 2020
“Great location, very well equipped and a very helpful owner.”

- Mr Halstead, February 2020
“The efforts Clare put into making us welcome were exceptional and we thank her for the welcome goodies she baked for us on arrival and during our stay.”

The cottage has superb views across the marshes to Hengisbury Head and there is plenty of bird life to watch with the binoculars provided by the cottage. Had the weather been better we would have loved to use the table tennis table! Internally, to the highest standard and very well equipped. Only downside, the road can be noisy early mornings if you are sleeping in the front twin bedroom. Main double with sea views was great.

- Prof Pearce, February 2020

“Our host was extremely helpful and generous with her baked goodies.”

The accommodation was ideal for my 92year old mother who was visiting the area to celebrating her sisters 90th birthday.We used to holiday in this area years ago so many great memories for us.The location,facilities ,comfort and ground floor was ideal and our dog was welcome.

- Mrs Cain, January 2020
“A very comfortable property in a wonderful location.”

Ideal for dog walkers and bird watchers. Clare the owner was very welcoming and hospitable. It was great to have home baked goodies and she was always available if there was any concerns.

- Miss Phillips, December 2019
“The Fish and Chip shop ten doors away was extremely good.”

There is even a social club opposite with temporary membership available, but the views and the wild life were the real show

- Mr Stanley, November 2019
“Comfortable and quiet property with friendly owner.”

Convenient for New Forest as well as Dorset.

- Mr Granville, November 2019
“Difficult to know how to score Harbour View because the ratings do not go high enough.”

If I praise it too much it will get booked up and not be available for me. Harbour View is an amazing property for comfort, location and facilities. But most of all is the host Clare. Clare made our stay really special, we benefited from her love of baking, produce was amazing. She is very caring and we had the comfort that we could call on her at any time if needed but not intrusive. I think if Clare could have control over the weather she would have, however it was very mixed but to be expected this late in the year. Super holiday all round.

- Mrs Holland, October 2019
“Harbour View has the most fantastic view from the lounge, master bedroom and garden which overlook the estuary with so many birds and if you are lucky beautiful sunsets can been seen from the garden.”

The cottage is well equipped with everything you need and the location is handy for both visiting the coast and New Forest. Mudeford Quay is just a few minutes away which is handy for both beach and stroll on promenade busy but not commercialised. Clare our host was so friendly, helpful and spoilt us with her home bakes, bread and cakes, her macaroons were without doubt the best we have ever tasted. We would definitely stay here again and would have no hesitation to recommending to others.

- Mrs Stevens, October 2019
“Lovely accommodation in a fantastic location.”

Well equipped with everything you could need and more! Clare was lovely and welcoming with nothing too much trouble. We arrived to find milk, homemade bread, meringues, muffins and home grown tomatoes (with more supplies through the week) Great base to explore the surrounding area or just sit in the garden and enjoy the amazing views. We would love to return - thank you making it a great holiday!

- Miss Witton, September 2019
“We knew the area well so we knew what to expect regarding the location but the welcome we received from Clare was by far the best we have ever had when arriving at a rented holiday cottage, The homemade bread and muffins were a lovely touch, so were the homegrown tomatoes and runner beans!”

The cottage is in a lovely position for walks and our cockapoo would have been in the water all day by choice. We had some wonderful sunsets-what a way to end the day, a glass of wine and a glorious sunset. We so enjoyed our stay we have already booked for next year. Frank, Lynda and Rupert (the cockapoo)

- Mrs King, August 2019
“The kindness of the owner providing us with some food, home made bread, and vegetables from her garden, and her availability for her guests, made this stay even more pleasant !”

We liked the excellent location of the cottage, near the waters, surrounded by birds and all sorts of peaceful animals in the distance. We would like to recommend it !

- Mrs Trachsel, August 2019
“Really lovely cottage, had everything that you need.”

Host is lovely and without being intrusive is there in case you need anything extra. Homemade bread and muffins on arrival was a nice touch. Great location as well.

- Mrs Harris, August 2019
“We enjoyed everything about our holiday.”

We have used Sykes many times before for holiday lets and they have all been very good but this one is far exceeds them all. The apartment was excellent with a beautiful view of different birds, ponies and the sunsets were magnificent. Clare's hospitality gifts were outstand - homemade bread was to die for along with other surprises. Would definitely go there again if we were holidaying in the area. We would recommend this to anyone wanting a quite restful holiday - with so many lovely places to visit in the area.

- Mrs Berry, June 2019
“Excellent accommodation.”

Wonderful views from the back of the apartment and close to a range of other lovely locations within walking distance. A very peaceful and tranquil place, but not far from Christchurch if you wanted something a bit more lively. A great spot for families with children of all ages, and good for walks with the dog. Lovely hosts who made sure we felt welcome with fresh bread and home made muffins waiting for us on arrival. We would thoroughly recommend this apartment.

- Mrs Langley, May 2019
“Brilliant is the word for this property from the very welcoming owner Clare .”

Then the amazing décor is perfect comfy a view that changes so many times perfect to relax , for bird watchers , artists paradise, also people who love to walk. Highly recommend to couples or families xx

- Mrs Nicholls, May 2019
“Such a clean, tidy and well equipped property.”

Great location with stunning views. Had a very relaxing feel to it. The owner made us feel very welcome and was so accommodating from beginning to end. The homemade bread and muffins were a very nice touch. We will definitely be returning.

- Mrs Young, May 2019
“Our stay at Harbour View was a perfect get-away.”

The house is well equipped, light and bright and the outdoor area postcard perfect. On arrival, we were greeted by the owner, who had also gone out of her way baking us fresh break and delicious rhubarb custard cupcakes. The area is stunning, fantastic walks, great local amenities and endless trails for dog waking. Coasts and marsh trails are marked with guidance on off lead walking, so our dog had an amazing time as well. We will definitely book Harbour View again. Thanks Clare for an amazing stay.

About the location

CHRISTCHURCH

Bournemouth 6 miles.

The attractive Dorset waterside town of Christchurch is situated on the estuaries of the Rivers Stour and Avon, where they come together to form a magnificent natural harbour. Christchurch is a real gem of a town, offering visitors a wonderful and diverse holiday experience. The town centre boasts an array of charming shops and quality restaurants, whilst the 11th century castle ruins and the glorious Medieval priory, the longest parish church in the country, are well worth visiting. No trip to Christchurch would be complete unless you have strolled down to the pretty quayside, where you can enjoy refreshments whilst watching the ever changing boating scene, or you may wish to take one of the regular boat trips along the peaceful River Stour. Take your buckets and spades to one of the gorgeous sandy beaches nearby, and enjoy a ferry trip across the mouth of the harbour from Mudeford Quay to the sandbank with its colourful array of little beach huts. Should you tire of all the local attractions you’ll find plenty to do in the nearby family-friendly resort of Bournemouth, or venture into the New Forest National Park, both just a short drive away. Alternatively head to the local beach at Southborne which has a promenade that takes you through to Boscombe and on to Bournemouth. The lovely waterside town of Christchurch offers visitors a delightful and interesting year round holiday destination.
