I really wish you ask permission before flying your drone over my property, you gave my butler a right scare 😁

the house you pointed out as a block of flats is Acculey Harry Redknapps house

[@Dubski]

I worked in Bournemouth in the 90's, at the Highcliffe Hotel and enjoyed spending my days off visiting Sandbanks, Poole and the surrounding area. A beautiful part of the country.

[@explorizm]

Living near to this area I can tell you it’s a lovely area! The sunsets are just incredible!

[@waynecheshire7878]

I’ve been waiting for this video and it’s been worth it cheers Stephen 🥂

[@HYUKLDER1]

Rick Stein Sandbanks restaurant and bar does lovely fish meals. Cross the water on ferry and there is another excellent restaurant called Shell Bay Restaurant & Bistro.

[@wendyjones2351]

Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always omg what a lovely looking place sandbanks is very nice looking properties amazing have a great evening xx

[@bcdave91]

Sandbanks might be posh and expensive now, but wait for a few more years when sea waters rise and coastal erosion gets worse. You can sit back and be thankful you're in Blackpool. :)

[@xr6lad]

Sea waters are not sure to rise anytime soon despite what they tell you if Obama bought a multi million dollar retirement house on a beach. The sand eroding might happen though.

[@chrisbridgen]

Holidaying here in 2 weeks and can’t wait, the beach is great for the kids!

[@kenforshaw8901]

Hi Steve. What a fabulous place, went down there years ago while passing through, it is a great place to live for the very super rich .

[@019208237]

That was a nice treat👍 never heard of the place but I've been to Dorset years ago.

[@jen6251]

Good video tonight can't wait for the next new videos

My partner grew up in a village in the north of England which is one of the most expensive in the country. Footballers, multi millionaire business people were neighbours. She lived in the only council house in the village.

[@petedix2554]

Had many holidays in Swanage in 60s and 70s, used to visit sandbanks before it was posh. The old bungalow is typical of the properties there then, before all the money moved in. Remember the chain ferry, think there is a naturist beach around there too.

[@mandysutherland9717]

Glad uYou came to my home town , would have brought you a coffee on the Quay .love poole and love Blackpool ❤

[@MrSargemneil]

Went through there on the Bournemouth Tour Bus , Amazing place.

[@independentpuppy7520]

I live in Poole. It's beautiful down here. It certainly is very different from Blackpool as you can see.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

A different world. I visited Brighton during my trip south, but much preferred Bournemouth.

[@elainewhitelock5347]

I holidayed as a child with my grandparents in Sandbanks. Grasmere avenue. Before it became a millionnaires paradise.!!1950s.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

It's probably like a different world now.

[@charlottedevere4876]

I am feeling homesick for Blackpool now. lets get back up North. Still a good video of the other half.

[@davidnm21]

Awesome video vlog Stephen such a great high profile area. Walk With Me Tim did this last summer and we were blown away by it. I think one million will only just get you a one bed apartment down there, ridiculous money. Probably ten million for some of those mansions you were showing. It’s a Wetherspoon for me any day over Rick Stein’s place. Maybe if my lottery numbers come up I’ll get myself a beach hut down there, lol🤣🤪👌

[@garryrobson]

Even though we live here, your video was still interesting to watch 👍👍👍 We moved here from Surrey, a few years ago, and found the people here much more friendly. Also, we’ve not met a single resident who doesn’t consider themselves very, very fortunate to live here. PS The block of flats with the underground car park was the Redknapp’s until 2021.

[@SuzylondonUK]

Thanks Stephen ive never heard of this place. Done 9 countries now I think its time to do more of UK haha. Great video 😊😊

[@lordloxley6411]

Went to Bournemouth in 2017 for the weekend and took a drive down to sandbanks beautiful place. One thing that did surprise me was seeing a experience motor that must have been seized by the police and awaiting recovery due to having a no insurance no car sticker on it . I was actually looking at prices last week for houses down there one that caught my eyes was a mere 5/6 million 😂 if I was lucky enough to win the euro millions I’d be straight on the phone to the estate agents down there.

[@Julian-ck6lf]

Very nice I was there last month, but not as friendly as Blackpool and there are no proper pubs!

[@dannyboyy31]

My local when I was in my teens and early twenties was the Sandacres, down on the corner of Shore Road. Sadly it's now a Tesco Express :(

[@VincentComet-l8e]

Yes, indeed. But I believe it’s the case that decades ago, certainly pre-war, the area was mainly little holiday shacks and chalets. Some possibly made from old railway carriages, as was the custom in those days. Would be interesting to see old pictures from that time…

[@dannyboyy31]

A few of the original little houses are left, but one by one they are disappearing - presumably as their owners pass on, and the plots get snapped by greedy developers. Even the beloved Haven Hotel (next to the Sandbanks Ferry) where Marconi lived for many years whilst conducting his wireless experiments isn't safe. A local property tycoon wants to turn it into a huge apartment complex.

[@AnimalMagnetism1965]

It is lovely round there & as you say a world away from Blackpool.

[@judithbateson6353]

Alan Price did a one man show at the Grand a few years ago. One of the questions he gets asked, is why do him and Georgie Fame not work together any more? He said, that when Georgie was making shed loads of money in the sixties, his financial advisor told him it would be a good idea to invest in a strip of land at Poole, called Sandbanks! Hence Georgie's lack of need for work.

[@theabandonedhunter3604]

Wow…. Errmmmm out of my price bracket these! 😂 Harry Redknapp sold his property last year for 10 million 🙈 great video sir.

[@brettwainwright512]

That house you said looked like a block of flats..No 117. That was Harry Redknapps old house which he's recently sold for 10,000,000.

Incredible place & almost as posh as Lytham. Cheers 🍺

[@navid.S]

It's not a comparison! Much more expensive than in Lytham! Proper posh place! Lots of foreign investments unlike the North!

[@centureye]

Looks a nice place

[@rikimarco1826]

I know this is a regular English expression, but if half the country was doing as well as Sandbanks, we would be doing OK as a society. I presume owners of these sea frontages (there were Beatle connections, I believe) have no fear for rising sea levels. Either that or they feel no pain in losing several £million in real estate.

[@xr6lad]

Why would they fear rising seas. Obama doesn’t and he brought a beach front property in the U.S..

[@dannyboyy31]

I believe one of the houses facing out across to Studland was bought by John Lennon for his Aunt, many years ago.

[@stugill4513]
