Bournemouth has a long history as a coastal resort, but there's also a much more vibrant side to this seaside town. A hot-bed for wellbeing and wellness, digital and technology, and outdoor and leisure interests means this is the perfect place to live while you study.

Great neighbourhoods full of character and charm. Bag a bargain at one of the vintage and antique shops, peruse the vibrant food markets, or attend live music, gigs and theatre at some of the best kept secret venues.

Southbourne is a thriving, cool neighbourhood, where you can experience independent shops and eateries, sip on the famous local beer, or wander to the clifftops and take in the idyllic vistas.

Christchurch is a beautiful town boasting a harbour, scenic riverside walks, and lots of history and heritage. There's nothing quite like a cosy, roaring fire in a traditional pub after a long walk.
