🎭 Plan a Break, Catch a Show

We’re so fortunate to have two fantastic venues nearby, the Bournemouth Pavilion and the BIC, bringing everything from top Music to Comedy & West End touring musicals. There’s even a fantastic annual Panto ( Aladdin this year) throughout the Christmas season offering a magical family treat (we’ve already got our tickets!).

We had a brilliant time watching Beverley Knight last night.

If you’re planning a visit to the coast, why not time your stay around a show and make a great night out part of your holiday?

Pop into an independent shop.

Book with someone local.

Order from a small producer.

Leave a review.

Recommend a business you love.

And if you’d like to support us, our Small Business Week offer is: £50 off remaining summer 2026 dates

You could stay in Southbourne for several weeks and still find somewhere new to eat and drink every single day…🍴🐾

That’s one of the things we love most about this area. From cosy cafés and beachside coffee stops to fantastic pubs, microbreweries and brilliant independent restaurants, it’s a real foodie haven. 🍕🍺☕

This reel highlights just a few of our personal favourite local spots — all chosen because they’re close to our holiday homes, family-friendly, and have dog-friendly areas too.

Some places welcome dogs throughout, while others have dedicated dog-friendly sections — but every one of them is somewhere you can relax and enjoy with the whole family, including the four-legged members. 🐶

And the best part? These are the kinds of brilliant independent local businesses that, like us, really value your support ❤️
