    Highcliffe Facts – Did you know…

    1. Slop Pond
      The town’s footprint was mostly created in the Victorian era with the first of the new houses built high on the cliff tops with views out towards the Isle of Wight. The earliest settlement dates back over several hundred years named “Slop Pond”. It later became “Newtown” before being rebranded once again as “Highcliffe”.
    2. Smuggler’s Bay
      Slop Pond wasn’t the most celebrated des res. The villagers were mostly farm hands and fisherman who supplemented meagre incomes by poaching and smuggling. The low beach was perfect for landing boats and high cliffs ideal for keeping look out.
    3. Selfridges
      Highcliffe Castle was once the home of Harry Selfridge. The American entrepreneur and founder of Selfridges lived at the castle with his family for 6 years from 1916.
    4. Highcliffe Castle
      The castle is open to the public and hosts and variety of events throughout the year as well as hosting weddings and events. It was constructed over four years by Lord Stuart Rothesay, Britain’s French Ambassador after the fall of Napoleon. Vast quantities of carved stonework were taken from a French Benedictine monastery.
    5. Kaiser Bill
      One of the castle’s most notable residents was Kaiser Wilhelm II, the last Emperor of Germany.
    6. Witchcraft
      Another famous resident was Gerald Gardener, the father of modern paganism and witchcraft, whose teachings spread as far as Australia and America. He joined a coven in the town, that hid its activities by claiming to be a theatre group.
    7. Holy Rollers
      The theatre group believed one of their props was actually the Holy Grail. Politically active, in 1939 they very publicly predicted Britain wouldn’t go to war with Germany. The following day, Britain declared war on Germany.

    About

    Quiet, sleepy little seaside town where nothing much happens…? You may think again. It has undergone several name changes, been home to smugglers and poachers, been home to emperors, millionaires and the father of witchcraft and paganism.

    Leisure

    There is a Food & Arts Festival held every June if you’re feeling arty (or hungry). Other local events and groups you might want to get involved in if you’re moving to Highcliffe include a beach clean group, a sailing club, bowling club, jazz band and monthly art group.

    There is a golf club or if you prefer your walks without hitting a golf ball you can enjoy the Chewton Bunny Nature Reserve.

    Transport

    There aren’t any major roads heading through the town itself, but Highcliffe is just a short drive from the A31 and M27 which offers access to the M3 and London. You’ll find a small train station at Hinton Admiral with routes to Bournemouth for trains to London.  Is also home to an international airport.
