Bournemouth and Poole are situated on the south coast of England, two hours from London, and can be reached by road, rail and via Bournemouth Airport.

Bournemouth is a long-established tourist destination and attracts visitors from all over the globe. Famous for its 12 kilometres of sandy beaches, beautiful parks and gardens. It has a cosmopolitan atmosphere, that blends a traditional British seaside resort with a busy and thriving town. The Bournemouth International Centre and Pavilion offer a venue for music and the arts.

Neighbouring Poole is a bustling harbour town, which boasts Europe's largest natural harbour. A short distance away, the landscape changes dramatically – from the rolling hills of the Purbecks to the wide expanses of the New Forest – offering much to see and do!
