Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Christchurch

The property was perfect, the pictures are lovely and they reflect the quality. The property once there is outstanding and very peaceful. It’s one of those hidden Gem AirBnBs, we loved the stay and will hopefully return.

Caroline is a wonderful host and her home was beautiful, we instantly felt at home shortly after checking in. Was perfect! Caroline was also on hand whenever we needed her and always responded to messages as quickly as she could. The home was a lovely size and there is nothing to be faulted with this beautiful home and lovely host. Would absolutely stay in the property again if it meant we could meet Caroline again and experience the at home feeling we had this weekend. 100% would recommend booking a stay at this lovely home, you would not be disappointed at all! Top host & top home ♥️♥️

We had a great long weekend with the kids at Michael's place. Christchurch is a beautiful town, tons of beaches in close driving distance. Christchurch town and the beautiful marshes in walking distance. kitchen was well stocked, kids loved the bunk bed, toys and books. we will be back in Christchurch!

The house is in a great location and neighborhood, beautiful views of the sea with the beach a 5 minute walk, there is even a lift down to the beach if needed. House was well equipped, very clean with clear instructions. Lots to do with great walks and shops nearby. Would highly recommend for a relaxing time in a very comfortable house with a great location!

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 are home after a Mon- Fri half term break at Admiral’s Watch, and we have had a wonderful time. Before we arrived we had clear directions from Nicky along with a really helpful list of recommendations for places to go with the kids. Getting to the property was easy and it was great to have a dedicated parking spot. The area is peaceful and completely beautiful. The small precinct of shops/ restaurants within the terrace was useful and didn’t intrude on our stay at all. The property itself is beautiful and just like the photos- the sea is right in front of the apartment making the views amazing. Nicky has styled the property beautifully and there was plenty of space for us as a family of four plus our dog. Activity wise I would recommend a trip to nearby Hurst Castle, and a meal at the Cliff House restaurant which was a short stroll away. Totally recommended, we had a great stay. Thank you Nicky and Ed.

Great house, with so much to do. Space for all the family, all the rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. Loved the games room- pool table, arcade machine and darts were great fun. Kids loved the garden space. Hot tub was an added bonus. The welcome basket was so lovely, and there were plenty of amenities in the house, which not many Airbnb offer. Diswasher tablets, washing machine tablets, washing up soap, Nescafe pods, tea, sugar, salt, pepper, olive oil, cornflour. There was also picnic bag, a few tuppawares for going out and about. Location was great, lots of shops locally down the road, and plenty of supermarkets near by. Lots of beaches near by, the one we chose was 7 miles away, and easy to get too. New forest was also local. There was a visitor book at the house with lots of information and locations for location attractions which was very useful.

We’ve absolutely loved our stay – it was such a special few days. I stayed with my two young daughters (3 and 5) while my husband was away, and this place couldn’t have been more perfect. I felt really safe and settled, especially with Amanda, the lovely host, just next door. She was so kind and thoughtful – and even gave my girls a little bear and a suitcase full of outfits for it that had belonged to her daughter, for them to play with – such a sweet touch. Toys, books, and a handwritten welcome note with all the essentials were ready for us on arrival – so appreciated after a long journey. The house is immaculate, cosy, and perfectly set up for families, and the surrounding area is absolutely stunning. We had a brilliant day at Sandbanks beach, just 5 minutes away and not too busy – with easy parking, nearby toilets, and loads of space for the kids to run around. Thank you again, Amanda – we really hope to return soon!

We were greeted by Michael and Christine on arrival and were shown into the accommodation which was very much to our liking and needs. Separate bedroom to lounge diner kitchen which was very well equipped. Lovely outdoor area table and chairs to relax. Good storage in bedroom for clothes and bathroom shower was perfect. Great for shops, buses and riverside walks. Michael and Christine were perfect hosts and we hope to come back sometime in the future.

Absolutely lovely and will definitely visit this apartment again. Thanks

We had a great stay at Pam's place! It was comfortable, spotlessly clean, in a great location for exploring the local area and very private. The enclosed garden was great - especially as we were travelling with our two dogs - and the welcome pack was indeed very welcome. There was so much to see and do nearby, we struggled to fit it all in on this visit so we'll have to come back! Thank you for having us, Pam :)

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!

We really enjoyed our stay at Sam’s place - lovely apartment and great location walkable to the beach and the centre. Loved that it was also located on the ground floor which made it convenient with our toddler and her pram. Sam was a great host, she was super responsive and proactive throughout our stay and the Prosecco was definitely a nice touch! We would stay again on a future visit to Bournemouth :)

The apartment is beautiful and very spacious inside, plenty of room for the 3 of us. The view was amazing and lovely to see the sea every morning. We caught the open top bus a few times into Bournemouth which was really fun. Also went to the beach bar right on the beach near the apartment. Brian was great with communication and was really easy to check in with the instructions. Late check out of 11am was a bonus too. Will definetly be back as we loved it so much. Thanks again

Craig's place was just as lovely as the images. Craig was proactive and accommodating too. All in all, I would rate it a 5-star experience and would come back again! One thing that stood out for me was that the supplies Craig had were what you would actually use at your own home. It's the small things that I tend to carry but did not need to bring - like my own handwash or toilet roll. Everything Craig stocked, was good quality. He even had 2 working fans in both the rooms. Loved the experience inside the house. The place was a walking distance from the beach, yet, close to the high street (but secluded enough). So, loved the experience outside the house too. I visited with my husband and elderly parents, so the staircase and the single beds were a little inconvenient for us, but honestly, the place is lovely for a young family.

Our second visit and just as good this time round. Lovely place, great location

A great location, incredible view from the bed of the pier and sea. Very nice and clean flat. Comfortable firm bed. Great shower and well equipped kitchen. 5 minute walk to the beach and Flamingo is a really nice and reasonably priced cafe/restaurant in between the beach and apartment. Very helpful and nice hosts. Would recommend every time and we will be going back again in the summer.

Light and spacious flat perfectly located for the beach and restaurants. We had a lovely stay and will be back!

I had a great stay in Rebecca’s flat. It’s clean and tidy and well stocked with all you could need for short and longer stays and with some lovely, complimentary goodies. The flat has its own dedicated parking space and the location offers easy access to local shops, cafes and restaurants and is within good access to the beach. Rebecca was flexible in amending my stay duration which I appreciated, thank you.

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.

We had a fantastic stay at this apartment! The place was spotless, stylish, and incredibly comfortable—truly a home away from home. The location was perfect for our needs, with everything we required close by and easily accessible. Our host was very attentive and made sure we had everything for a smooth and enjoyable visit. As regular vistors to the area, we’ll definitely be staying here again and will happily recommend it to our friends and family!

We had a lovely holiday in this beautiful and very spacious apartment. Everything was spotlessly clean and worked well. Claire's communication was great - quick, clear and understanding. We love the West Cliff area of Bournemouth and highly recommend for families. The only downside was that it being on the second floor of a tall, old property - there were lots of steps up and down!

We had a smashing stay at this flat with our two little ones. It was ever so handy having the high chair, cot, and a nice little collection of books and toys for them! It’s split level but a sliding door keeps the children from the stairs. The view was absolutely lovely, a real treat to wake up to. The beach is just a fifteen-minutes walk away via a cute little park. If you indulge in the massive ice-creams at boscombe pier you could take a short cut back up a steep rd to burn it off! The walk from Boscombe to Bournemouth pier with a pram was about 25 minutes. The landtrain that normally runs between them wasn’t working or perhaps just runs over the Summer holidays. The owner was great with comms, really thoughtful checking in to see if we were alright. All in all, a comfortable and convenient spot for a family getaway by the seaside. We'd certainly consider coming back.

We had an amazing stay, the apartment is beautiful and in such an amazing location. Our kids loved being able to walk to the beach and playground, and we loved having a great coffee shop 30 seconds away. The living room was great for a slump on the sofa after a busy day. Parking at the pub worked well. Thanks for a great stay!
