Allotments
Coronavirus (COVID-19): change to service
On advice from the government regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19), some services have changed. Find our latest information and advice about allotments in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole.
See further information about changes to services.
There are seven allotment sites in Bournemouth, we run three of them and the others are privately managed
Getting an allotment
To get an allotment from us you must live in Bournemouth. Allotments are very popular and there is a waiting list for plots.
A typical allotment plot is 250m2 (300sq yds) but sometimes you can get a smaller plot if you feel you wouldn’t be able to manage a larger one.
If you would like to apply for an allotment please use our Allotment Application Form
If you have green fingers and are on an allotment waiting list but keen to get outside, you might want to think about volunteering in our parks and gardens until you get your own space.
