Description from owner
Description
Birchcroft with hot tub nestles in over 1 acre of woodlands but is only 5 miles from the golden sandy beaches of Bournemouth with cinemas, nightclubs and great shopping. Picturesque Christchurch, the New Forest, National Trust properties of Brownsea Island, Kingston Lacey, Corfe Castle and the Jurassic Coast, are all in easy distance with Adventure Wonderland, Hobby Craft and Wimborne Minster closeby.
The area is a golfers' paradise with over 16 courses and features some very well-known courses – Parkstone, Ferndown, Broadstone, Queen's Park and Isle of Purbeck with its fantastic views of Brownsea, Poole Harbour and Bournemouth Bay.
The Dorset area is well known for its Jurassic coast, Chesil Beach and the Swannery at Abbotsbury as well as Monkey World and the Tank Museum at Bovington – all within an easy drive.
The gardens are stunning, with azaleas, rhododendrons, hydrangeas and beautiful lawns. The woods are great for building dens and the summerhouse is now a childs' dream play house with toy kitchen, table and chairs, as well as many toys.
BIRCHCROFT for peace, tranquillity, beautiful walks, golf courses and sun, sand and fun - Where the country meets the sea and history abounds.
Use of HOT TUB. We have a hot tub on site that can be hired for a nominal £1.00 but must be pre-booked.
