The church has very beautiful architecture. It was a great experience to walk around and see the beautiful artwork on the wall and the stained glass windows were also very beautiful and made pretty light shine into the church. It was a very educational and informative visit.

Beautiful, calm space inside & out, with lots of free events but sadly no Christmas Cards anymore.

A wonderful peaceful space in the heart of Bournemouth. The grounds have been totally renovated, with cleared woodland spaces, a heritage and a wildlife trail, butterfly walk in teh centre and a newly planted cherry blossom tree walk. Lots of picnic benches scattered around and saw local students, visitors and business people enjoying their lunches in the sunshine. The church inside is beautiful and peaceful and the cafe in the back was open and serving the cheapest cup of tea and a cheese toastie in town! Would recommend it! Reading the literature, they have free concerts on every Wednesday lunchtime and the last Friday of the month hosts a free jazz concert at 1. Also, so many other musical groups use it for the concert venue so it looks like there is something going on every week, with so many offering free entry. Definitely worth a visit.It's such a shame that Cards For Good Causes no longer use St Peter's as one of their Christmas Card shops. Nearest ones appear to be Wimborne and Swanage - hardly local!

По моему скромному мнению, церковь Святого Петра - главная церковь Борнмута, и она определенно стоит внимания. Начиная от потрясающе красивых витражей и архитектуры внутри, заканчивая огромным задним садом-кладбищем с не менее огромными соснами. Когда приходишь в это место, всегда ощущаешь спокойствие, нежишься в этой тишине и недвижимости времени. Еще во дворе находится захоронение писательницы Мэри Шелли.

It's a bit of an uphill walk from the seafront. You cannot miss the tall, singular spire from the beach which was what drew us to the church. For the fans of Mary Shelley, her resting place is on the right of the church just past the little Chapel building. You do not need to enter the church to get to her resting place but it really is worth seeing the inside of the church.
They have evensong (an evening service) which is lovely at 3pm.

We found this church to be almost like a cathedral! Full choir, friendly vicar and lovely Christmas morning service with real candles.

The surrounding area is a bit rundown. Shelley is buried in the graveyard. Keble and Gladstone worshipped here. Good guide sheet.

My family and I were in Bournemouth as part of a short break. As we were in the vicinity and as I'm a fan of literature I wanted to visit the final resting place of Frankenstein author, Mary Shelley. We didn't venture into the church itself but the exterior is impressive and as imposing as a prominent local landmark can be, albeit seemingly secondary to the seafront. The grounds were in reasonable condition; the upkeep could have been more in line with the impressive nearby gardens adjacent to the beach and shopping area. Obviously visiting a graveyard is not to everyone's taste but there were a smattering of other people showing an interest, including one very helpful gentleman who advised of other famous 'occupants'. My teens weren't overly impressed or eager to be there but for me it added an extra dimension to my relationship with Shelley's work. Worth a visit to tip your hat if you're a fan. There's also a pub nearby in her name.

After a quick drink in the Mary Shelley pub we walked across the road to the church and grounds.
Its a beautiful little spot hidden away in the heart of the city. The church itself is lovely and its interesting to walk around the grave yard and of course see the final resting place of Mary Shelley herself, there is a little info plaque that tells you where to find it along with a few other local legends.

Hello, do you know if they allow weddings in this church? And do you have to be part of the parish?
Many thanks

Hi - the short answer is yes, you can get married at St. Peter's, but you will need to talk to Lisa in the Parish Office about the details, phone 01202 290986.
What is the small building in the grounds used for?

The chapel in the churchyard is the Resurrection Chapel. It was originally built as a mortuary chapel for the main church (before public mortuaries existed) but has been used for various things in the last few decades, most recently by the small Celtic Orthodox community for their services. It has always been part of the parish church, and we are currently renovating it for various uses as a chapel and community space. (The Unitarian Church is on West Cliff, a mile or so away.)
