Just as Dun a Ri (meaning Fort of the King) is a place of natural beauty and tranquillity offering an escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, our lodge provides a coastal sanctuary where guests can enjoy the serene harbour views and the calming sound of the waves, just as King George III enjoyed when he visited Sandhills Manor House.
By naming our lodge Dun a Ri, we bring a piece of the forest's magic to the coast, creating a unique and inviting retreat. Experience the peace, beauty, and inspiration of Dun a Ri at our coastal holiday lodge, overlooking the stunning Christchurch Harbour and within close proximity to the beautiful Avon Beach.
Dun a Ri has prime position on the front row lending spectacular views of the harbour and is perfectly placed to experience the beauty of the sunsets in the evening on the deck. The lodge features two bedrooms, one double and one with two singles. There is an open plan living area and a fully equipped kitchen with all the modern amenities including TV, washer/dryer, dishwasher and parking right in front of the lodge.
Sandhills Holiday Park has a pool with loungers and deck chairs. Inside you will find a bar and a small gym with a shop on site. There is also a children's play area.
Nearby restaurants include The Noisy Lobster or The Jetty which are both within walking distance, with further restaurants not far away in Mudeford and Christchurch.
Dun a Ri welcomes pets.
We do hope you enjoy your stay at Sandhills Holiday Park and especially Dun a Ri. Please feel free to enjoy a drink at the bar in the Club House and a swim in the heated pool where slots can be booked at reception. Water sports (sailing, windsurfing and paddleboarding) are also available at the beach and crabbing equipment from the shop on the Quay.
Close by is historic Christchurch, boasting an 11th Century Priory, which is conveniently situated between the New Forest and the stunning Jurassic Coast.
From the quay you can take the ferry to Mudeford sandbank where you can walk to Hengistbury Head and beyond. Hengistbury Head is perfect for nature lovers and walkers and this scenic headland can be found between Christchurch Harbour and the English Channel, providing coastal views and an array of wildlife. There are miles of walking and cycling trails for birdwatching. Additional walks along the coastline can be enjoyed between Mudeford Quay and Highcliffe Castle.
Further afield, in the New Forest is a vast expanse of woodlands and heathlands where the trails are perfect for walking, cycling, horse riding and spotting the famous New Forest ponies. The arboretum at Rhinefield is particularly lovely and has some nice walking trails.
Lymington is a pretty Georgian town with independent shops and tea rooms and nearby Beaulieu is the home of the National Motor Museum as well as the Beaulieu Palace House. There is also a ferry to the Isle of Wight hourly from Lymington Ferry Pier.
Paulton's Park, home to the famous Peppa Pig World is only a 30 minute drive away towards Romsey, where you will find Romsey Rapids and Broadlands. Romsey is also a lively market town with art galleries and independent shops. A short drive away is also Marwell Zoo, near Winchester which is set within 140 acres of parkland.
