Other things to note
Close to harbour and quayside - 100 metres to Old Lifeboat Station and crabbing hotspot - Frequent busses to nearby beaches and Sandbanks.
In Anchor Cottage you couldn't be better placed to explore everything the harbour and its surrounding area has to offer. There's something for everyone do in Poole with beaches, watersports, fishing and nature trails. Catch a ferry across the harbour to Brownsea Island to see the peacocks and red squirrels or walk 100 metres to the Old Lifeboat station and go crabbing on the quayside. There are events all year round and the summer fireworks off the Quay are a spectacular sight.
