Mudeford, Christchurch
Beach Retreat is a lovely modern bungalow, providing accommodation located over one floor, just around the corner from Avon beach, Mudeford quay and Christchurch harbour (all 5 minutes level walk away)
Please note that the upper floor of this chalet bungalow is the owners' private area, however they will not be living there during the rental period.
Offering a calm, quiet retreat after a busy day by the sea or harbour, its kitchen, dining and soft seating area overlooks a secluded, fully enclosed, sunny garden with sun loungers and plenty of space for Al Fresco dining.
The well-equipped kitchen has a dishwasher, microwave, double oven, fridge freezer and Induction hob. A separate utility room houses the washing machine and tumble drier. We even have a highchair for little ones.

We are family friendly and also welcome well-behaved dogs. Local beaches have year round dog friendly sections and there is a small woodland walk about 200 metres away.
We like to encourage wildlife and have made a small ‘home for nature’ in part of our garden. You may spot a variety of birds visiting the feeders and the pond.
By booking Beach Retreat you will not only be having a great holiday you will also be helping to raise funds for our chosen charity, which is Macmillan Caring Locally. 5% of all net booking fees is donated to Macmillan.
The local area has attractions and activities to suit all ages and tastes. Why not try your hand at crabbing on Mudeford quay or take a stroll on Avon beach along to Highcliffe beach? Or head over to Mudeford Sand Spit (famous for its expensive beach huts) and Hengisbury Head which can be reached via the ferry from Mudeford quay. Our 3 local nature reserves (Stanpit Marsh, Steamer Point and Hengisbury Head) are worth exploring, with the free visitor centre at Hengisbury Head providing a wealth of information around the history of the headland together with regular activities for children and adults. For those interested in longer walks or cycling, there is a classic walk/cycle from the doorstep to Sandbanks (via 1 ferry) or further afield to Studland (via 2 ferries).
For those interested in water sports, you can hire paddle-boarding, kayaking and wind surfing equipment just 5 minutes’ walk away. Lessons in these activities are also available. Fishing trips are available from the quay, where you will also find a well-stocked fish stall. There is a small children’s play park on the quay.
You are spoilt for choice when it comes to eating out locally with an abundance of pubs, cafes and restaurants. There are a number of traditional pubs including The Haven on Mudeford quay. Coastal restaurants include The Noisy Lobster and The Jetty (part of the Harbour Hotel and Spa) and cafes include The Beach Hut Cafe which serves its award-winning hearty breakfast together with lunches, cakes and ice cream. There is a Deli just around the corner which is also a cafe.
Come and explore our Happy Place!

A great bungalow in a great location
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Another lovely stay at ‘Beach Retreat’. A great bungalow in a great location. Fully enclosed garden which our little dog loved. This is the 2nd time we have stayed here and I’m sure it won’t be our last visit. We love being just a very short walk from the beautiful harbour of Mudeford. Lots of lovely walks and just a short drive from The New Forest

We had a fabulous week staying at Beach Retreat in Mudeford!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a fabulous week staying at Beach Retreat in Mudeford!!
The bungalow was found to be immaculate on arrival, and I mean spotless which is always a relief when arriving somewhere for the first time. The accommodation was perfect for us (2 adults, 2 teenagers and our pup), with plenty of room in the modern, well laid out Kitchen with dining and sitting areas, bedrooms and sitting room for us all, off street parking and lovely relaxing garden - everything needed is thoughtfully supplied by the owners.
Regarding location, we were visiting local relatives but loved the location of Beach Retreat, within 5 minutes we were on Avon Beach with dog section for our daily walks.
We can recommend the Noisy Lobster restaurant, it’s shop and two lovely ice cream places along the beach.
All in all we were all very impressed with Beach Retreat and will be visiting again in the future.

So good we’ve already booked for next year
We recently returned from our stay at Beach Retreat, it really is a home from home . The bungalow is beautifully furnished with an amazing garden and patio area which was nice to sit in when the sun was shining. Our Sprocker Ozzy absolutely loved charging about exploring in the garden.
We particularly loved the kitchen and dining area ,it’s a really good space for family and friends.
The location is ideal, just a few minutes walk to Mudeford Quay where you can take the ferry over to Mudeford sandbank. It’s also good base for exploring Dorset and the New Forest.
Already looking forward to next year.

Once again we have had a superb stay at ‘Beach Retreat’, it has everything that you need and more. It’s lovely to stay somewhere so nice and be able to take our dog. The bungalow is positioned well to walk to Avon beach or the quay, where it’s nice to sit, have a drink and people watch. We are returning again in April.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Beach Retreat has everything you need for a perfect holiday location. The bungalow is comfortable and well equipped and the garden is a lovely place to relax on the sunloungers provided.
Near the beach and the harbour and with walks along the cliff top which we really enjoyed in the evenings..
This was our second visit and we would love to return in another year.

Beach Retreat - Our Second Time
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
July 2022 saw our return to Raven Way and this oasis of calm in the summer heatwave. We loved spending time in the back garden - cool in the morning - baking in the afternoon! The privacy is wonderful, with only the sound of the leaves on the trees and the distant calls of the seagulls to keep us company.
The homeliness of this house is wonderful. Some say that there is no place like home, but Beach Retreat makes you feel at home from the first step over the threshold.
Many thanks to the owners for making this our very special place in Dorset.

Great bungalow with everything you need. In a brilliant location so close to beach/harbour.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
'BEACH RETREAT' A very desirable bungalow, so near the beach. Quiet road very safe, gated property. Excellently clean. Owners are trying very hard and succeeding. Very comfortable garden furniture, unoverlooked, cute feature little pond. Parking for a few cars. Bed's very clean and comfortable, lots of storage space. All items needed to equip and use a kitchen, for someone who really wants to cook, love the filter kitchen tap. Plenty of space in fridge/freezer. I would most certainly book this property again, and I am quite particular.

I would 100% recommend this accommodation
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I would 100% recommend this accommodation. It was extremely clean and tidy, just as shown in the photos. We booked a last minute 3 day break with 2 young adults and 2 dogs. There was plenty to see and do in the area for our family. The accommodation is situated just a few minutes walk to the beach and the beach has areas for dogs too. The only downside was that 3 days were not long enough so we aim to return next year. Thank you so much for a lovely relaxing break.

The beautiful Beach Retreat is very much a home from home
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The beautiful Beach Retreat is very much a home from home and is just perfect for a family stay. The bungalow decor gives off a calming and relaxed feel and is comfortable throughout. It’s location is perfect with being only 5minutes walk away from Avon Beach and Mudeford Quay but also only a short drive away from the picturesque New Forest. The secure and sunny garden is lovely for relaxing in and the sun loungers were a welcomed touch! The Beach Retreat is truly a very special place and we can’t wait to return again next year to explore more on what Mudeford/New Forest has to offer!

The accommodation is spacious and well equipped
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a wonderful week at Beach Retreat. The accommodation is spacious and well equipped. We really enjoyed spending time in the well maintained sunny garden, as well as the open plan kitchen/dining area. The welcome gifts and personal message from the owners were really appreciated. We were lucky with the weather, so went to the beach and Quay every day and found it a real benefit that both were within easy walking distance. I'm sure we will be back again some time soon.

Great beach retreat - perfect location!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great bungalow for a family weekend with young kids. Very close to the beach and to Mudeford Quays. Very clean and spacious. Fantastic garden which we were able to make good use of on potentially the last sunny/warm weekend of the year! Great beach nearby and fabulous walks. Very vibrant stretch of coastline with good restaurants / cafes and water sports, and a good base to explore the New Forest too.
Beach Retreat is a wonderful home
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Beach Retreat is a wonderful home, and we enjoyed every moment of our time there. The house and garden are immaculate, and the setting is extremely relaxing. We found the kitchen/diner to be a wonderful family space and allowed everyone to join in the fun. The bedrooms are cosy and very comfortable and also stayed cool on hot summer nights. The bathroom and shower were fantastic. The location, close to the quay and Friars Cliff beach, suited us perfectly. We will return again in 2022!
Martin, Cath and Lydia from Marshfield
A lovely stay.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a relaxing and enjoyable stay at this lovely house in August. The location was unbeatable, so close to the beach, Mudeford Quay and a short drive from local amenities and beautiful Christchurch. The beds were really comfortable and the shower nice and hot! Hairdryers provided and a fully equipped and spotlessly clean kitchen. The garden is beautifully maintained and deserves a special mention, I so enjoyed sitting outside with a coffee. Can’t wait to return.
Perfect place to stay.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Stunning bungalow with everything you need. Pet friendly. Close to the beach and quay. We will definitely be visiting again.
Fabulous - A real home from home.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. It was immaculately clean (we had 100% confidence of our safety in COVID 19 times) in perfect condition and felt very comfortable. I’d recommend this property to anyone.
