One of the first impressions you will have on arrival at the Sandbanks is the stunning view. The Sandbanks is one of the only hotels in the country with direct access to a blue flag beach! During your stay, dine in the Seaview restaurant - or in real style in the aa Red Rosette Awarded Sands Brasserie; both have panoramic sea views from most tables. There are excellent facilities for children and families and during the school holidays and special Family Breaks, the hotel even has a children's restaurant so Mum and Dad can get some time to themselves after all! Together with seasonal children's entertainment and the hotel's proximity to the beach, family facilities couldn't be better.
