Whitecliff and Harbourside Park have undergone a cool evolution in recent years, capitalising on the area’s boating credentials and desirable waterside location. Today this vibrant spot is popular with young families who benefit from good local schools and expansive open space for active children. The arrival of ‘Coast’ – the surf, ride and skate emporium - has contributed to the area’s hip, younger vibe.
Parkstone Yacht Club, East Dorset Tennis Club, Harbourside Park football fields, promenade cycle paths and modern playgrounds ensure an active lifestyle for locals. Nearby Poole Park offers yet more outdoor activities.
For families, nearby schools include Lilliput First School, Baden Powell School, Buckholme Towers and Talbot Heath.
The area is well connected to central Poole, located just a short drive away. Parkstone and Poole railway stations offer good train services to Bournemouth, Winchester, Southampton Airport Parkway and London Waterloo.
Local Property
Hugging the rim of Poole Harbour, Whitecliff offers waterside living at more affordable prices that its waterfront neighbours Lilliput and Sandbanks.
