M3 to Southampton.
M27 (West) to Bournemouth.
A31 through the forest. Pass Ringwood. Turn left at the Ashley Heath roundabout.(Sign posted Bournemouth A338). Proceed down the Ringwood/Bournemouth Spur road over the flyover onto the Wessex Way. Follow the signs for Bournemouth Town Centre/BIC.
Continue along the A338/Wessex Way until you reach St Pauls roundabout, (the name is on the roundabout), and take the first exit.
Follow St Pauls Road until you reach a further roundabout, and take the second exit, St Swithins Road: the signpost indicates East Cliff, Boscombe and Southbourne. This leads to St Swithins roundabout, at which you take the first exit (into Christchurch Road). Proceed along Christchurch Road, and pass through three sets of traffic lights. After the third set of traffic lights, take the first turning on the right: this is Boscombe Spa Road. Boscombe Spa Road bends sharply to the left and becomes Owls Road: at the bend, go straight over, continuing into Boscombe Spa Road.
The Chine is directly ahead of you. There is parking at the hotel and staff to help with your luggage.
