Boscombe West sits to the east of Bournemouth, Dorset. With its wide beach, just part of a 7 mile, uninterrupted, stretch of golden sand from Hengistbury Head to Alum Chine. It is an ideal holiday resort for families with young children as well as couples of all ages at anytime of the year. Boscombe gardens date back to the late 1800's offering a pleasant and peaceful stroll from the main road down through to the pier. Boscombe is ideal for people with mobility difficulties as the shopping area is flat and pedistrianised. Just 1.5 miles from the centre of Bournemouth it means the busy nightlife is close by without being intrusive.
