🧡 Lifestyle Loves… Coffee & Pastries at BakeHouse24 ☕🥐

✨ Sometimes all you need is great coffee and a freshly baked pastry! BakeHouse24 is an artisan bakery specialising in traditional sourdough methods, with counters filled with freshly baked breads, pastries and cakes made using carefully sourced ingredients.

⭐️ Pair your favourite pastry with coffee from local Bad Hand Coffee Roasters, grab a loaf of artisan sourdough to take home, or simply settle in and enjoy a slow morning over coffee and something freshly baked.

🥰 Simple, local and seriously good — exactly how coffee and pastry mornings should be.

🧡 Lifestyle Loves… Summer Days at SOBO BEACH ☀️

✨ DISCOVER good food, cold drinks and a day beside the sea.
⭐️ Sitting right on Southbourne Promenade, SOBO BEACH brings together relaxed beachside dining, palm trees, a beach bar and gorgeous views across the coast.

⭐️ Start the day with breakfast and coffee, stay for lunch from the Flamin-Go Grill or Wok-Shack, then settle in for dinner, drinks and sunset vibes. There’s plenty happening throughout the summer too, from live music and DJs to regular beachside events. ⁠

🥰 And it’s dog friendly too, so four-legged family members don’t have to miss out on the fun!

📍 Southbourne Promenade, Southbourne, Bournemouth BH6 4BE
🕒 Open every day from 8am, closing at sunset — breakfast from 9am. (SOBO Beach⁠)

🌒 One of those evenings Southbourne won’t forget in a hurry.

Last night, people packed out Southbourne Beach to watch one of the most impressive solar eclipses the UK will see for decades. From Bournemouth, around 94% of the Sun was covered at its peak.

What made it even better was seeing everyone experience it together. People passing around eclipse glasses, strangers sharing them with anyone who didn’t have a pair, and the whole beach stopping for a while just to look up.

There will be other partial eclipses, but the UK won’t see another one this close to total until 2081. The next total solar eclipse visible from the UK isn’t until 2090.

Pretty special to see Southbourne so busy for something like this, and even better to have captured it on film. 🌊☀️

Bournemouth absolutely showed up for this one. 🚲🔊

Dom Whiting brought Drum & Bass On The Bike back to Bournemouth and the atmosphere was unreal.

Thousands of people moving through the streets together, with even more waiting on corners, outside their homes and up on balconies just to watch it pass. Sunshine, drum and bass and what felt like the whole town sharing the same moment.

Definitely one of those days where you had to be there to understand just how good the energy was. What a day. ☀️

We recently visited The DOUGH BOX BH at Café Riva in Southbourne to find out why this independent pizza truck has become such a local favourite. From fresh ingredients and hand stretched dough to beautiful coastal locations, it's easy to see why people keep coming back 🌟

.bh 🍕🔥

Sometimes the best pizza doesn’t come from a restaurant.

In this video, you’ll find .bh serving authentic Neapolitan pizzas from their beautifully converted horsebox at , one of the best spots to grab a slice with a sea view.

Fresh, wood fired and always worth seeking out. 🤍
