About us
The name ‘Rumsey’ is synonymous with Sandbanks. For over 70 years there’s been a Rumsey agency based on the peninsula - originally an estate agency that developed much of Sandbanks’ commercial infrastructure, to us today – your local holiday home specialists. Still located right in the heart of Sandbanks on Banks Road, we now market and manage over 130 spectacular holiday properties on the Sandbanks Peninsula and in the exclusive suburbs that fringe the shore of Poole Harbour and Bournemouth’s beautiful beaches. From large, luxurious waterfront homes complete with hot tubs and swimming pools to sleek, stylish coastal apartments perfect for couples, we’re the leading provider of luxury accommodation in Sandbanks.
As a small, locally based agency, our team has unrivalled knowledge of both our portfolio and the surrounding area, plus we’re able to draw on the know-how and expertise of our parent company, Toad Hall Cottages, who provide holiday homes throughout the South West. From first-hand recommendations to help you find the perfect property, to insider tips on the best things to do and places to visit, our ethos is to provide each of our guests with a truly personal experience.
Why book with us
Our portfolio of properties in Sandbanks have all been carefully hand-picked and personally inspected, and we know each and every one inside out, so whether you’re searching for a seriously special property to get together with family and friends, are happiest right beside the water or are simply seeking a change of scene, we can chat through your requirements and help you pick the perfect place. And having first made Sandbanks our home over a decade ago, there’s little we don’t know about the local area too. We’ve tried and tested the tastiest seafood restaurants, best boat trips and prettiest sunset-watching spot so that you don’t have to. Our office is located in the heart of Sandbanks, so we’re always on hand to help throughout your stay, including a 24/7 helpline should you need us.
For an experience that’s so much more than a holiday, we also offer a tailored guest concierge and event planning service at our luxury Bespoke Properties. Working closely with the best local providers, we can arrange private celebrations, catering and butler services, organise drivers, boat trips and days out, or book spa treatments and restaurant reservations on your behalf. Put simply, we’re here to make sure your trip is as exceptional as the property you’re staying in.
