Poole - A Beautiful Seaside Resort

By: Helen Stevens

Poole is located in the stunning county of Dorset and is the world’s second largest natural harbor. The beaches here are believed to be some of the greatest in the country and if you want to own a property in the nearby Sandbanks which overlooks Poole harbour, then it will cost you more than anywhere else in the UK.
There is a good selection of restaurants in Poole, many of which are located around the Quay and most are of a very good standard. So you have the satisfaction of enjoying a meal while experiencing the breathtaking views.
Dorset has many attractions and all the great ones are a maximum half an hour’s drive from Poole. Opposite Poole Quay, is Brownsea Island which is an English Heritage Wildlife Preserve that offers numerous fair priced cruises around the islands that surround Poole Harbour. If you have a fair sum of money to use then you may want to look at chartering a boat and exploring the islands yourself. It is truly a delightful experience to cruise around all the sites in your own time and at your own pace.
Bournemouth and Christchurch are only a stone’s throw away from Poole and they have all the most important attractions you would expect from bigger towns and have more activities than anywhere else on the southern coast. There are a number of theaters scattered around including the Lighthouse in Poole and the BIC Theater in Bournemouth which draws in some of the leading names in show business as well as many concerts. Poole also features the largest leisure multiplex in the country which is called Tower Park. This massive complex contains a huge array of services and entertainment including Bowling, Bingo, Cinemas, Arcades and many different restaurants to name but a few. If that wasn’t enough, there is Poole Stadium which houses one of the top UK Speedway teams, and runs other events such as Greyhound Racing.
