Steering for the Open Blue

Holiday Rental Description

Hello, harbour views. This contemporary flat perched right on Poole's bustling quayside is the epitome of coastal living. The private balcony is a dream come true, and we bet you'll spend every spare moment admiring the scenery. Rise with the sun and enjoy a cup of coffee alfresco, watching as the ships bob in the water. For lunch, nibble on the local treats left in the welcome basket before toasting your arrival with a glass of white wine as the sun goes down.

When you're not lolling about on the balcony, the light-filled interior is just the ticket after long day exploring Dorset. Make yourself comfortable on the sumptuous cream sofas – perfect for snuggling up for at-home movie nights – or rustle up dinner using fresh-caught seafood in the shiny kitchen. Stylish elements like rattan dining chairs and seaside curios add to the beachy-keen atmosphere, so if living by the sea is what you crave, you can't go wrong.

Poole Quay is literally on your doorstep, so maritime activities like boat journeys, fishing excursions and trips to the National Trust's Brownsea Island are all within easy reach. Stroll along the waterfront path or pedestrianised high street in search of shops, restaurants and pubs before making the thirteen-minute drive to Sandbanks Beach and spending the afternoon sprawled out in the sand and swimming in the ocean.
