Trying to find a place, warning vague content
Discussion
Right so firstly let me apologise in advance for how vague this post may be.
I'm trying to find a place I visited briefly back in January time and I believe it's on the Bournemouth coast line somewhere.
Here are the details I remember from it. It's a little cafe type place that lots of cabbies seem to visit and wait for them to get a call for a fare, it has nice views over towards Sandbanks IIRC.
It's basically a big circle, so you enter from a small painted roundabout (that back in Jan was having some roadworks done upon it) and when you exit you come out before the roundabout again.
Make sense? Didn't think so
I'm hoping someone can help because I can't for love nor money remember where it was but it's a nice place to sit with an ice cream/coffee.
Thanks in advance!

Sorry let me clarify if I had ridden across the coast directly I would have passed sandbanks, so looking out to sea and slightly west whilst I was at said spot I was looking at sandbanks.
I hope that clears things up, if not im not very good at this
I'll have a proper look at a few places on google maps again and post back if I do end up finding it, thanks for the replies so far everyone

Right after another ten minute google session it's definitely not Sea View. Having looked at Alum Chine (or rather the few places google maps brings up when you type it in, C tag for those that want to check) It looks like my view was similar to that.
However searching all around that area I can't find the place I'm looking for.
I would have been close to the coast and prior to coming up to the roundabout that had road works on I climbed uphill with a couple of slight bends if that helps anyone at all? I doubt it.
Again sorry for being so vague but thinking back to a cold day on a motorbike a few months ago isn't my forte. Thanks again for everyone who has had an input thus far.

It has to be Seaview viewpoint from your description. Are you sure it's not here?However searching all around that area I can't find the place I'm looking for.
