We’ll create a complete bespoke package appropriate for your occasion, whether that includes water sports adventures, dining experiences, tickets to the beach polo… or whatever floats your boat. Oh, yes, and boat trips. Beach huts available at Sandbanks, Flaghead Chine and Branksome Chine. Our beach huts come with gas stoves, cutlery/crockery, deck chairs plus plenty of toys and games; they are available upon request at an additional cost. Dog Friendly Fret not, you won’t need to send your four-legged friend to the kennels or rely on a kind neighbour to look after your pooch while you’re away. When you enquire or book with us, please let us know that you intend to bring your dog, so that we can get everything in order for you. We can also suggest dog walks, let you know which beaches allow dogs and recommend dog-friendly day trips. Top tip: if you want to take Fido to the beach, head to Sandbanks in Poole, where there’s a dog wash. Woof!
