101 Things to do in Bournemouth – Christchurch Walking Tour

The Saxon town of Christchurch is steeped in history. Nestled between the coast and the New Forest, and between the Rivers Avon and Stour, it is a pretty town with plenty to explore.

About Me

Hi, I’m Jane. 7 years ago I stopped work so I could travel more. I spend my winters on my adventures around the world. So far, I have notched up more than 80 countries, researching and planning the itineraries for our adventures.

I spend my summers in my home town of Bournemouth on the south coast of England. Bournemouth is renowned for its beaches, but there is so much else to do here besides. Last year, I endeavoured to sample 101 local activities, and you can read all about them here.

This year, as a proud grandma, I am exploring 101 baby and toddler friendly activities.

I hope you enjoy reading about my journey. Maybe it’ll help you plan one of your own…
