We’ve never stayed in a chalet before so this was a new experience. The property was beautifully furnished and right on the beach front with an uninterrupted view of the sea. Good restaurants nearby too.

Fantastic stay, I come from this neck of the woods but now live in Canada. My Wife and I were so happy to find this little piece of heaven with a stunning view of the Isle of Wight and the Needles. We will definitely use this location again when we return to the UK. Thanks :)
5.0 / 5.0
Chalet has an enviable position with the accommodation being comfortable and clean, with a larger than average decking area thanks to the tree, which is quite a feature!
Sandhills has a range of facilities to cater for all your needs whilst being a quieter and more conservative site than many.
Highly recommend for those that want a more up-market place to stay with great sea views, easy access to beach and places to eat on the doorstep.
Perfect base to explore the area and highly recommend Beaulieu approx 35mins away through the New Forest, and Compton Acres 30mins away in Poole.

What a view!
What a fabulous chalet, in the most perfect position with great decor and everything we could possibly want, including a view to die for.
And we absolutely love the tree!
We bought our breakfast from the cabin, lunch from the cafe further along the beach and had dinner in the Noisy Lobster. Perfect!

Chalet by the sea
We were delighted with the high standard of our chalet and we found it to be very well equipped and comfortable.There was only one problem and that was the rather lumpy springs in the two twin beds. But apart from that, it was superb!

Great location with sea view
Thoroughly enjoyed our family home away from home. Was lovely to wake up to sunshine and sea views each morning, just a shame we couldn’t have stayed longer.

Lovely chalet
We had a very enjoyable stay at this chalet. Particularly lovely location, stunning views and peacefully situated. Ideal for couples or families of all ages. The chalet was nice and clean and pleasantly decorated. A nice addition would be if there was a hairdryer available for use. We particularly enjoyed having breakfast on the outside decking and watching the world go by. The sun went off the decking by midday. It's a shame that the branches on next doors tree couldn't be thinned out so the chalet would get some afternoon sun. On a plus the lawn area in front of the decking was in sun into the early afternoon. On the whole a most enjoyable stay.

Excellent location
The chalet is so well positioned on the sea front and near the harbour. The shower is fabulous and there is plenty of room for 4 in the chalet. We had a wonderful long weekend. Oh and the pool on site is heated and lovely.

Super chalet
The Chalet by the Sea under the Tree is a lovely property to rent.
It is extremely clean and well furnished and the views from the lounge/dining/kitchen area are amazing. Two sunloungers on the decking would add to the enjoyment.

“A wonderful chalet in a wonderful location”
I have been going to Mudeford and the Christchurch area since I was young in the 80s. I have walked passed the chalets many times and always wanted to stay there. Well ....35 odd years later and many visits to Christchurch since, I finally had the idea to book and take some family members as a treat for an Autumn short break. This chalet did not disappoint and everything that is described is correct and the sea view in full view from the chalet is 50 yards away. Mudeford really hasn’t changed much in many years and is an English unspoilt hidden gem and even when the weather isn’t good, it’s still a wonderful place. We didn’t need to go outside of Mudeford for the weekend and spent our time shared between walking along the long stretch of beach, the haven house pub, the seafood bar and the Noisy lobster restaurant, which is really the only main addition to this stretch of coast in 40 odd years, which is superb.
Booking was easy and the property is well managed the property manager was particularly excellent and helpful. I will be booking again soon and hope to have 2-3 short breaks a year.
Dear “Mudeford and the “chalet under the tree “ please don’t ever change. .....

Perfect place to watch the world go by
The chalet is located in a brilliant location - it really was a great place for the two of us to recuperate. Perfect to sit out in the evening on the decking with a glass of wine, watching and listening to the sea. The photos give an accurate indication of the property. Samantha, the host, was excellent and extremely efficient at communicating - nothing was too much trouble.
