Friars Cliff is an attractive and quiet residential enclave tucked immediately behind Friars Cliff and Avon Beaches. In the 18th Century this area was a patchwork of fields and part of Prime Minister and botanist Lord Bute’s estate. In the 19th century parts of this estate were sold, which led to the development of Friars Cliff in the 20th century.

This little known area chiefly comprises leafy avenues and closes of modern family homes. It is a favourite with families and retirees thanks to its relaxed holiday lifestyle and easy access to local sandy beaches. These sweeping bays of gently sloping sand offer safe swimming, stunning views over Christchurch Bay, and are prettily edged with pastel coloured beach huts and trees.

Facilities are provided by seafront Beach Hut Café and the Noisy Lobster restaurant with bakery and deli. Open spaces include Steamer Point, a clifftop woodland nature reserve, and Highcliffe Castle Golf Course. Local primary schools are considered very good with Mudeford Junior judged ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted. The nearest mainline station is at Hinton Admiral with services to London in around two hours. Access to the road networks is via the A35.

The property is accessed via electric gates opening through to a large block paviour driveway providing extensive parking and leads through to the double garage.
