Welcome

Friends of Boscombe Chine Gardens was inaugurated and constitutionalised on the 3rd July 2003.  Our primary objective is to enhance & conserve Boscombe Chine Gardens for the enjoyment of the community  & visitors.

Our intention is for Boscombe Chine Gardens to be a place where everyone from toddlers to grown-ups, can visit to enjoy the landscaped and natural gardens, associated wildlife and various amenities.

  • Located within Boscombe Chine are wonderful three dimensional bedding displays alongside traditional bedding and innovative herbaceous planting schemes.


  • A splendid 1890's lodge is situated at the northern end of the chine close to the terraced Clock Café and 18 hole Mini-golf course.


  • We also have a Multi Use Games Area where basketball and football are played.


  • Further down the gardens is an interpretation of the original circular spa shelter with a conical, oak shingled roof that acts as a stop off point for the Bournemouth land train.


  • There is also an enclosed children's play area with an innovative water play feature.


  • Boscombe Chine Gardens is proud to be Bournemouth's 10th Local Nature Reserve.


  • Holder of a prestigious green flag award since 2007.


  • The southern entrance to Boscombe Chine is located opposite Boscombe Pier and is easily identified by a second circular spa shelter and information board.


We hold various fun-filled events throughout the year.
