Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Christchurch

Just had a wonderful weekend staying here for my 50th birthday. It was more than what we expected. Photos don’t do the size of the rooms justice. So many things for the kids (and adults) to play with. The cup cakes and bottles of fizz was a lovely welcome. Sonia was a brilliant host and we would definitely come back.

The house was comfortable, very well equipped, and ideally positioned for Poole Quay and the Harbour Park. We and our dog appreciated the bottle of fizz and other treats left for us all. There are several shops and restaurants within a few minutes’ walk. The allocated parking space to the rear was often taken up by other vehicles but there was sufficient space at the front to park our car. We would highly recommend Mainsail for couples or families wanting to visit Poole. Thank you Angus and Anne for a lovely stay!

Great stay, within walking distance of the beach, really clean and everything we needed was available for the stay! Great communication and information on the day of check in. Would definitely recommend and hopefully return in the future :)

Thank you Aimee & Paul. After spending the perfect weekend at your Airbnb, we clearly see and absolutely agree with why you’ll are super hosts!! From the communication, to the quality of the accommodation & amenities to the welcoming touches with Prosecco & snacks, your thoughtfulness just made our holiday perfect!! The decor was bright, modern & beautiful; the house and furniture was spotless and the house had everything you would need for a weekend getaway. We were 9 people and a dog and there was ample room for everyone. We couldn’t be happier. The only issue is that since this was our first Airbnb adventure, we’ve now got our bar set too high 😊 Thanks once again for allowing us a fabulous few days in Bournemouth in your beautiful house.

lovely house, quiet, private, spacious. thankyou :)

Lovely place to stay, clean, comfortable with everything you need. Great location short walk to the coast, short drive to the new forest. We all had a fab mini break, dogs loved the walks

Perfect place to stay within easy reach of lots of things to do- would definitely go back. Thanks!

Great space, exceeded expectations. Had a great stay. Will defo be coming back!

Fabulous home for family’s, especially great for younger children and babies. Couldn’t fault the home or garden, even the pool was warm enough for the kids.

Lovely place, great amenities, clean and spotless and hassle free check in and out! Andy has been very communicative as well, would definitely love to come back again when the pool reopens!

Very homely and very well stocked caravan. Nice and quiet when we stayed. Parking space at the side big enough for 2 cars. Samantha was very helpful and very responsive to messages. Activity passes included making this a very reasonably priced place to stay.

Thank you for our stay 17-21 April 2025! We found our time enjoyable, space was clean and tidy, easy to find with clear instructions on what to do, the host messaged us details about check in etc and sent us a message on the day when caravan was ready, as it was ready earlier than the check in time so they sent us a message to let us know! Caravan had everything we needed to make the stay comfortable. Clean and tidy, with the added bonus of milk/biscuits/tea/coffee/sugar and toilet roll on arrival which is always a nice touch after a journey! we forgot to pack toys for our little one but was great to find a box of big lego and board games/cards available for us to use which went down well in the evenings, so this was great! Lots of places to visit locally all within a short drive - Blue Pool is a must as well as Corfe Castle and the steam train ride! This is our 2nd time staying on the Rockley Park site (stayed a few years ago) 1st time in this caravan but would highly recommend!

We made a last minute booking and Andy was extremely helpful with information and advice, and was very quick to respond to messages. He went over and above to make sure our stay was a good one. The accommodation was very comfortable and convenient and easy to find. Great location opposite a large grassy space with goal posts which was perfect for our kids. Would definitely recommend.

This was our second visit, our experience was nothing short of amazing. We were warmly greeted, the annex was immaculately clean and tastefully decorated, providing a relaxed, cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Jo and Andrew ensured we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect offering easy access to Branksome Woods to walk our dog and leads to the beach in 10 mins. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable Airbnb experience.

A really comfortable relaxing place to stay with all the family.Such a perfect spot for visiting lots of key spots plus a beautiful walking area. Lot’s of great pubs and restaurants too. Seeing the wild deer and ponies was such a joy.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Nina’s house in Southbourne, and we can't recommend it enough! The house itself was fantastic—spacious, well-equipped, and perfect for our large group. The location was ideal, allowing us to easily explore the beautiful beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed using the facilities at the house, which added to our overall experience. Whether it was soaking in the hot tub or cooking in the well-stocked kitchen, everything was just right for our getaway. Nina, our host, was exceptional. She was responsive, polite, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay, ensuring we had everything we needed. Her attention to detail truly enhanced our experience. Overall, this was the perfect getaway, and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Nina, for being such a wonderful host!

Located close to where we have family living which was ideal for us. Lovely and quiet and has a saved parking space for the vehicle Our dog was welcomed to the property. It’s close to shops and takeaway outlets, although the kitchen is perfectly satisfactory for cooking in. Lots of lovely touches in the property such as provision of tea, coffee, milk and sugar as well as shampoo, soap shower gel in the bathroom. Very friendly hosts who were available if required.

We had a few days staying here . It was so quiet and a lovely location , bed was very comfortable and had everything that we needed . We took our dogs and there were some lovely walks , also the garden of the bungalow was perfect for them , very secure. Thanks Lesley , we will be back 😄

Paula’s accommodation was perfect - it was spacious, clean, tidy, comfortable, private, and had beautiful scenery. We stayed only one night (wish it was longer!) and had a quiet evening in on the very comfy sofas, with an easy to use TV which was also good for our toddler after a long day of exploring the New Forest (which was super close by). We enjoyed breakfast in the back garden area which was so peaceful, and lovely scenery with the surrounding animals. We took our German shepherd and there was plenty of space for her to relax both inside and out. Paula also supplied a travel cot and highchair for our toddler which made packing the car far easier for us! We would definitely recommend staying here and would love to stay again one day, thanks Paula!

A fantastic stay! Peaceful with plenty of walks right on the doorstep. Well equppied cottage and perfect for our dog too. Would definitely recommend!

Both Garth and Marie was brilliant, I couldn’t fault them. Even was able to check in earlier and was able to leave later. Very clean. Hot tub was amazing and all ready for our arrival plus a bottle of fizz to start our getaway for the weekend. Our dogs enjoyed the surroundings. And plenty to do in the area x

A great place and lovely pad. We really enjoyed it and meeting you also. Look forward to coming back next year.

We have just spent the Easter weekend at this wonderful cottage - 4 adults and 2 children under 6 years old, and I have to say that Joel & Gaby’s place near the new forest is absolutely fabulous. Very spacious and ideal if you are looking for a getaway with a hot tub and table tennis in the garden. The cottage is in a great location, about 10 min drive to Paultons Park with peppa pig world so an absolute must for kids. It’s also not far from the new forest itself and Lyndhurst town. It was really tidy & clean, with a well equipped kitchen and bathrooms stocked with fresh towels. We were left a lovely gift on arrival of fresh bread, milk, eggs and a bottle of Prosecco which was an absolute treat! I couldn’t recommend this cottage more - thank you Joel & Gaby we had a fabulous time and would stay again in future.

If you want a peaceful location that’s spotlessly clean then this is the place. Caroline was a fab host who was there if needed. Perfect location for both the Forest and the coast. We will definitely return.
