When your partner is quadriplegic and can't move at all you need holiday accommodation with some serious access features! BOD has everything and all contained in a spacious ground floor flat with unrestricted sea views. Essentials for us mean a wet room (there are two), profiling beds, tilting shower chair, a mobile hoist and it's all provided. Add to this a very high standard of furnishing and general equipment (some accessible accommodation can be a bit clinical), an accessible pub 100 metres away, and even a cliff lift - free to wheelchair users - to take you down to the promenade and the beach. We've had some pretty dire experiences in the past but this is accessible heaven!

Warm & friendly B&B, incredibly helpful staff and reasonable at £30pppn - breakfasts are delicious and varied. Walk through a forest at the end of the road to get to the powdery sandy beach or hop on a train to the new forest for a walk or bike ride (rentals at Brockenhurst station starting from £9 for an afternoon bike ride)

Four-star hotel in the centre of Bournemouth. Perfect location in centre of town and only five minutes' walk through gardens to Bournemouth's beautiful beach. Full leisure facilities including indoor pool, restaurant and bar. Accommodation is some of the nicest in Bournemouth - ask for a Superior room.
