I discovered some lovely tasting beers when I first called at the brewery tap room in Christchurch emporium. Neil, the brewer, is a very friendly guy who really knows his stuff, and with the more recent addition of the Tuckton tap room and The Snug near Christchurch Priory, there's more opportunities to try these superb beers. I've enjoyed something new each time I've called!

Always make a visit to the priory it’s a beautiful building with fine architecture and historical interest. Kids are fascinated with the tombs inside and the graves in the floor. You’d expect teenagers to grumble but they loved it

Mudeford Quay is a small beautiful corner of the Borough of Christchurch in Dorset, England. Situated at the entrance of Christchurch Harbour, Mudeford Quay benefits from spectacular views along the coast, over to the Needles on the Isle of Wight & back to Christchurch town. Mudeford Quay is made up of two areas, the Quay itself and Mudeford Spit, a natural sandbank which leads to Hengisbury Head all the way to Boscombe & Bournemouth. The Quay is a hub of activity with beautiful beaches, the lush grassed area ideal for picnics and enjoying the beautiful scenery and the Quayside itself which has a small shops, a pub, a fish stall and plenty of vantage points to watch the world go by.
This beach is excellent for families with all age children. There are cafes, ice-cream shops and toilets plus loads of sandy beach. For water sport enthusiasts you can wind surf, paddle board, canoe and even surf on some occasions. There is a promenade that stretches all the way from the quay to the beach where in the less busy winter months children can scoot and ride their bikes. In the summer the quayside is a popular place for children to go crabbing, however watch them as the water is deep and fast flowing. Food: The Noisy Lobster is a beach-side cafe that serves breakfast, coffees, cakes and a variety of meals, whilst there is also a fish and chip bar and an ice cream parlour. If you go to the quayside area there is another cafe. You can also catch a ferry from the quayside across to Mudeford Spit, where there are the most expensive' beach huts' and you can also catch a land train to Hengistbury Head, a prominent headland..

This is our local beach - we were there again late August. The beach itself is mainly fine sand - not "manicured" - with some stones and often, seaweed. It's popular with other locals, and has good cafés, fish 'n' chips, a good beach shop, and ice creams. Toilets too. Everything easy-access. From the beach, there are lovely strolls; west to Mudeford Quay, with ferry access over to Hengistbury Head/Mudeford spit, and east, to Highcliffe Castle and other beaches, either along the beach, ot through Steamer Point nature reserve. There's a pay car park by The Noisy Lobster restaurant, right by the beach. Or Avon Beach car park, 2min stroll from thd beach. (That's only 70p in the winter.) A lovely beach, often busy but never packed.

Sit and have a bag of chips or an ice cream and watch the world go by lot's of boats and wild life, there is a small ferry that takes you to the other side of the water, near the Captains Table. Boat hire available but not cheap. Catch the ferry to Hengestbury Head or Tucton tea rooms for a game of crazy golf, or just walk along the waters edge

Gin Discovery Evening - Birthday Present What a great evening ! Had no preconceived ideas of what the evening had to offer so on arrival in Christchurch High Street, I was really pleasantly surprised......what a great shop selling a fantastic selection of specialist chocolates, biscuit, sweets etc......and a marvellous selection of artesian Gins !! A very warm welcome extended to everyone by Lloyd and Sally the owners, kicking off with a mystery Gin, I won't spoil the fun by revealing the secret, needless to say it was a great introduction to what was a super evening trying 8 specially selected Gins.....we loved it ! Lloyd and Sally put on a good show, the history of Gin fantastic and the selection available superb. Met a number of really nice people who we didn't know (all Gin fans), great fun trying the Gin and mixers. Had no idea of the history of how the Gin craze started, we do now and all thanks to Lloyd and Sally. We ended the evening buying two specialist Gins that we tried, but there's so so many on offer and with expert help at hand you won't end up buying something you don't like. If you enjoy Gin, an evening with Lloyd and Sally an absolute must, BRILLIANT......will be telling friends to visit. A taxi home essential, loved the evening. Many thanks Fantastic that you are making the High Street special, always keen to support local businesses in these challenging times. All the best, see you again.......once we are done with the 2 bottles purchased ! Best Julian & Amanda
