Flip Flops is a luxury lodge, located on Sandhills Holiday Park in Mudeford, that looks out on Christchurch Harbour. It includes one double en-suite bedroom and one twin bedroom, both with plenty of storage space, and a family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower. The sizable kitchen is well equipped, including gas hob and oven, under counter fridge, freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. Facing the harbour are full, room width bi-fold doors which open out onto a spacious deck. When the bi-fold doors are open the living space is vastly extended and there is a suite of outdoor lounge furniture plus a table and four chairs. It is perfectly positioned for catching the afternoon sun or watching the sun set.

Mudeford was once a fishing village and is still home to working fishing boats. Pleasure fishing trips are available, including the Bay Blast rib ride.

We loved our stay in Mudeford and in 'Flip Flops' lodge. Lovely location and the accommodation was very spacious. Always pleased with the communication with Jane and Ian, as we have stayed in Sandhills before. The weather put a bit of a damper on it, but the lodge was cosy and warm to retreat to. Will definitely stay again. It's one of our favourite places.

Very relaxing and peaceful
We both really enjoyed walking along beach early morning and again in the evening.
The place had a view of Christchurch harbour. Birds singing squirrels running around, lots of trees round the site, lovely.
Thank you so much we wished we booked to stay longer

No pool
The lodge itself is beautiful and in a great position very clise to the sea and promenade. The accommodation is well decorated and spacious with a fantastic decked area ideal for hot weather. Our only complaint was that the pool was closed despite being assured by Park Holidays that it would be open, so we had a very disappointed 6yr old. I would advise anyone booking to be aware of this as it is not very clear in any pre literature. If your not concerned about the pool then we would highly recommended.
