“Perfect base for touring the area even had Netflix May return one day”

“We are returning visitors to Captains Retreat, as the house is very comfortable, and we enjoy the river walks which are just minutes away from the house.”

I would just like to mention that we missed having a washing line which we have used in the past, and also, that there were no washing machine instructions amongst the paperwork. Had to search for them online. We enjoyed our getaway, and would recommend this holiday home.

“Wasn’t quite as near to the high street as we would have liked (we had someone with mobility problems) but it was very close to the river which was lovely.”

. We couldn’t find any maps and restaurant information and we had to hunt around for appliance instructions. In fact there were none for the washing machine. Overall a good property and we enjoyed the holiday.

“A washing line in back garden should be reinstated.”

Very useful previous years, missed it this year. Toilet seat in downstairs toilet needs tightening, and all taps need new washers, as they drip even when taps turned off. Other than these niggles , very pleasant accommodation.

“We had a lovely time at The Captains Retreat.”

Parking is easy and directly outside. It is situated at very short distance to the local attractions, we would take a walk by the river most evenings which is 30seconds away. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived with all the necessary amenities and great Wi-fi connection. The outdoor furniture and patio area is lovely too. The owners were easy to contact if needed (I asked for restaurant recommendations and local places to visit with the kids). The only adjustments I would suggest is to maybe replace the tv remotes as they don’t work very well, and provide some thinner bedding for the children in the summer. Overall we had a fantastic time and really enjoyed our stay! :)

“Given the circumstances at the time we could almost have forgotten the Covid thing but it did limit the holiday.”

However, the convenience of the location and its proximity to the centre of Christchurch more than made up for it.

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.
