Forsyte Shades is set down a private driveway and is surrounded by Parkstone golf course to the south and Compton Acres gardens, a Victorian inspired gem with seven themed gardens across more than ten acres of plant collections to the north.

The enchanting coastal village of Canford Cliffs is your closest high street and offers an array of restaurants, local shops and amenities. The village offers picturesque walks leading to the award winning Blue Flag beaches and is home to some of the borough's oldest beach huts dating back to 1927.

Nearby, the internationally acknowledged, Sandbanks boasts the largest natural harbour in Europe (the second largest natural harbour in the world) with miles of golden sand and sheltered waters. It is perfect for either learning the latest water sport or simply lazing on the beach in the sun.

The Sandbanks Chain Ferry crosses the short stretch of water across to the Purbecks, giving access to Shell Bay, Swanage and the rest of the magnificent Jurassic coastline and stunning Purbeck countryside.

For eating out, the wonderful Rick Stein’s restaurant, next to Tailor Made’s office, is very popular and across the chain ferry is also the delightful The Pig On the Beach and Shell Bay. Sandbanks is also the home to the Royal Motor Yacht Club and Sandbanks Yacht Club
