Bournemouth town centre is 1½ miles away. From the well kept town gardens, trips on the Bournemouth Eye can be taken, which rises high above the town to give the most amazing panoramic views over the whole area. At the foot of the Pier is the fascinating Oceanarium where the whole family can discover life beneath the waves. The harbour town of Poole boasts the second biggest natural harbour in the world after Sydney, where boats can be watched as they sail by from the quayside, or from where trips to the National Trust's Brownsea Island can be enjoyed. The whole Heritage and Jurassic coastline is easily accessible, whilst the New Forest is only 10 miles away - where the famous ponies can be seen ambling around the villages. Compton Acres in Bournemouth and the delightful Exbury Gardens (18 miles), are both worth a visit, as is Beaulieu, with its world renowned National Motor Museum, Palace House and Beaulieu Abbey (20 miles).
