We loved touring the harbor and visiting Brownsea Island and walking along the shore. Wonderful parks. Great for flying a kite. Poole Park fun with 'Penguin-accompanied' ice skating for beginners. Harbor full of shops. All sorts of boats to observe. Relaxing.
I was just stopping for a night but took a walk into town. The quay area is worth a visit for the sea air and a look at the boats - check out the massive Sunseeker motor cruisers at their works! The old town although not extensive is well worth a visit for some nice Georgian architecture. Next to the old Guildhall I found the Angel pub where I had a decent pint before returning to the High Street for a very good curry at the busy (good sign) Taj Mahal restaurant.
The water front at Poole is good to walk especially east towards the Sandbanks area. Poole town centre is a bit ......... but we go for the waterfront walks and harbour boats access. These can take you around the whole Poole harbour area, across to Brownsea Island (good for relaxing walk but a fee if you are not National Trust member), to Sandbanks spit, access from there to walk the 4 miles of Studland Beach. Mixture of bars and restaurants around the waterfront area.
Surprised at how Poole offers an older part almost alongside the new. Parked easily despite being a Saturday night, walked to restaurant within minutes and had a very good Indian. Saw no yobs or drunkenness. Area was not full of traffic as is the case in similar sized towns. Very impressed overall.
Lovely part of the country to visit.Plenty to see and do.Lots of good eateries and shopping.Still holds onto the traditional seaside town feel.Easy to get to Bournemouth,Dorchester and surrounding areas from there.
