The attractive Dorset waterside town of Christchurch is situated on the estuaries of the Rivers Stour and Avon, where they come together to form a magnificent natural harbour. Christchurch is a real gem of a town, offering visitors a wonderful and diverse holiday experience. The town centre boasts an array of charming shops and quality restaurants, whilst the 11th century castle ruins and the glorious Medieval priory, the longest parish church in the country, are well worth visiting. No trip to Christchurch would be complete unless you have strolled down to the pretty quayside, where you can enjoy refreshments whilst watching the ever changing boating scene, or you may wish to take one of the regular boat trips along the peaceful River Stour. Take your buckets and spades to one of the gorgeous sandy beaches nearby, and enjoy a ferry trip across the mouth of the harbour from Mudeford Quay to the sandbank with its colourful array of little beach huts. Should you tire of all the local attractions you’ll find plenty to do in the nearby family-friendly resort of Bournemouth, or venture into the New Forest National Park, both just a short drive away.

We had a lovely short break in the Happy Hut, clean and comfortable. After spending days exploring it was great to chill out in the hot tub in the evenings. Prosecco and fresh eggs from the girls next door was a nice touch as well. Thank you for sharing your place!

The hut itself is an absolute delight with everything included that you might need and more. The hot tub is situated down a elegant stoned path with stepping stones so you can walk barefoot to it. It is set amongst trees ferns and Lilyâs. The lights in the trees are a lovely surprise as it gets dusk. The little extra touches as you arrive in the hut are a welcome treat. We loved our time there and would recommend a few days there to any couple for a quiet get away. The area of Dorset has lots of places to see with plenty of walking. Canât say enough about our time at The Happy Hut
