Location
Prime retailing in Bournemouth is focused on the pedestrianised thoroughfares of Commercial Road and Old Christchurch Road. Old Christchurch Road, which provides an anaesthetically attractive retailing environment, is the traditional 100% prime retail pitch. Retailers represented on Old Christchurch Road include PANDORA, LUSH, WH SMITH, ERNEST JONES, HOLLAND & BARRETT, TORTILLA, SUPERDRY, SUBWAY, NATIONWIDE and MCDONALDS. The subject property is situated in a prime retailing position, opposite Bournemouth Arcade which is home to town aspirational retailers including SPACE NK, WATERSTONES and CHARLES FOX JEWELLERS, the town’s authorised Rolex dealership. Old Christchurch Road benefits from excellent footfall being situated close to the town’s principal bus terminus and also, along its non-pedestrianised northern section, provides the town’s focus for its thriving dining and leisure scene.
