Best & Cool Bars in Sandbanks

"The location of Urban Reef is the closest you can get to the lapping waves before having an actual picnic. It is my favourite within a small, but lovingly nurtured, group of restaurants known as the Urban Guild. All about nourishing, sharing and embracing, it’s the perfect setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner in the sunshine (all of which can be ordered off of the dedicated vegan menu) and they work with as much local and seasonal produce as they can, so you know it’s fresh."

"This restaurant’s idyllic beachfront setting means that diners here can enjoy a breathtaking vista over Boscombe Promenade and across Bournemouth Bay during their meal. Feel at one with the natural landscape as you tuck into one of Urban Reef’s delicious breakfasts. The sundeck is located right on the promenade, so diners truly feel a part of the natural landscape."

"Urban Reef is one unmissable place to eat, thanks to its stunning views of Bournemouth Bay, the Isle of Wight and beyond. Offering everything from light breakfasts and brunches through to romantic diners and takeaway pizza, it's got all you need under one roof."

"Right on the edge of the New Forest National Park and just outside the village of Lyndhurst sits The Oak Inn, a charming traditional family-friendly pub which is a popular stop for walkers, cyclists and explorers in the New Forest. Steeped in history, the building has been a pub for more than 150 years. During WW2 it was a popular meeting place for foreign and allied servicemen who were based at military sites in the area, and the pub’s low-beamed ceilings, bare floorboards and open fireplace adds to its historic feel."

"From the warmest evenings to the coldest nights, The Oak Inn pub in The New Forest will always welcome you with open arms – whether you’re a slider, rambler or regular customer. From the moment you walk through the door, the scent of the most delicious dishes will reach your nose. Indulge in great pub meals such as steaks, fish, roasties, kids’ meals and a fair selection of sweets and desserts too."

"Decked out with charming original features, from the low beamed ceilings to the cosy log burner and chalkboard menus, it's the stuff of sleepy Sunday dreams."

"The lakes of this former collection of gravel pits set in 159 hectares of woods and grassland near Ringwood are absolutely stunning. Blashford Lakes Nature Reserve are a series of walks and trails around the lakes alongside 8km of rolled gravel paths and six bird hides open for the public to use. The list of birds is too long to mention with around 500 species."

"The New Forest Reptile Centre just 10 minutes away from Brockenhurst is a great place to take the kids. The centre is home to a wonderful array of reptiles and amphibians including rare sand lizards, frogs, toads and Britain’s only venomous snake, the adder. You can see the animals up close in their outdoors enclosures where they feel naturally at home."

"Once the gatehouse of the medieval Beaulieu Abbey, Palace House has been the Montagu family home since 1538. Remodelled and extended in the 1800’s, it is now a stunning example of Victorian architecture, in a stunning setting overlooking Beaulieu River. Visitors can explore the characterful property’s ornate rooms, family treasures and memorabilia, as well as the beautiful grounds."

"Palace House and the old abbey ruins can be found a short distance away from the National Motor Museum, just one of Beaulieu's....."
