Upton Manor is perfectly placed to easily access so many of Dorset’s beautiful attractions. Just a short bus ride away is Poole Quay with many shops, restaurants, boat trip opportunities and places to sit and while the time away yacht spotting. Sandbanks and Studland is easily accessible at a short drive away, whilst right on our doorstep there is access to shops, a few pubs and a lovely coastal park just down the road. Even a boat trip to the fantastic Brownsea Island. Arne, is located on the banks of Poole Harbour and is a sweeping nature reserve full of wildlife and deemed a designated area of outstanding natural beauty. An alternative to the short drive to Studland is the ferry ride from Sandbanks to enjoy the natural coastline with views of Old Harry Rocks and the Isle of Wight.
We take part in the annual Upton in Bloom campaign and are proud members of the local community, always delighted to get involved in events and activities in the area. The beautiful wild scenery, relaxed lifestyle and lively local towns makes Upton a truly idyllic location.
Upton Manor even has a very special young resident - two year old Charlie, a Hermann tortoise described as King of the Garden. Charlie roams Upton, interacting with residents and sometimes even takes part in activities.
The town of Upton is a picturesque and vibrant part of south-east Dorset, only a short drive from Poole, the quay, and the beautiful coastline. As well as the bountiful open space surrounding us, Upton Manor is close to the local amenities of Upton and Hamworthy, with local shops, pharmacies, coffee shops and churches. We're close to the Upton Clock Tower, built at the Upton Crossroads to celebrate the new millennium in 2000.
Our lovely residential area is surrounded by nature and wildlife, with an abundance of greenery and delightfully blue waters. On the edge of Lytchett Bay Nature Reserve, the neighbouring Upton Heath Nature Reserve is one of the largest remaining protected fragments of a heath that once stretched across central southern England.
Whatever you need to live the life that you want, you’ll find it at Upton Manor.
