A Rainy Day in Bournemouth
Bournemouth when it rains: the seafront aquarium, a clifftop art museum, afternoon tea in town and a cosy pub to finish.
Weekend break · 2 days
48 Hours in Bournemouth
An unhurried two-day plan for Bournemouth: seven miles of sand, a Victorian pier, sub-tropical gardens and excellent dining on the seafront.
Couples and friends who want a neighbourhood rather than a resort strip, and would rather walk than drive.
A Weekend Based in Boscombe
Friday evening to Sunday afternoon with Boscombe as the base rather than the destination: walkable, unhurried and mostly outdoors.
Anyone staying a week who would rather not drive, and wants the week to build rather than repeat.
A Week in Bournemouth Without a Car
Seven days from a central base using nothing but feet, buses and one train: including both towns at either end of the bay.
