Canford Cliffs village is located along the eastern edge of Poole Harbour. With a small parade of shops consisting mainly of cafes, estate agents and banks, it really feels like the relaxed and affluent suburb it is. You can walk through a children’s play park, down the wooded chine, past a few pastel painted private beach huts to get to Canford Cliffs beach. Property prices remain high in this area and you can understand why – it really is a classy place to live.

7 Miles of blue flag beaches from Sandbanks to Bournemouth.
