WELCOME
TO BOURNEMOUTH
|
Bournemouth is a busy, active, seaside town, famous for family holidays, mild weather and a pleasant, safe environment. The holiday industry is still very important, but Bournemouth is also well known as a centre of academic excellence. It has a large, modern University, an Art & Design Institute, and several other colleges offering subjects ranging from hairdressing to piloting helicopters. Plus, of course, there are many language schools of all sizes, resulting in the town being a second home to many thousands of students from all over the world, every year.
As a result, there is an excellent social life, including many nightclubs, bars and restaurants, and a superb range of sports and leisure facilities. Best of all, in the Summer, is the beach - one of the cleanest and safest in Europe. The surrounding countryside offers ancient forests, dramatic coastlines and pretty villages, and road and rail links are excellent - London is under two hours by train, two and a half by road. Above all, Bournemouth is a welcoming town, and a place you'll want to come back and visit again and again.
