Featuring a shared lounge and views of quiet street, Cranborne House is a guest house situated in a historic building in Poole, 1.5 km from Poole Beach.

Location is excellent and the property is beautiful. I spoke with Susan beforehand and the process of getting access to the property was very smooth. The property has a kitchen for use by people staying there and was fully stocked with milk, coffee, tea, sugar and also bread and butter for helping yourself to toast. There was also a kettle in the room with tea and coffee and you could help yourself to milk from the fridge in the kitchen as a milk jug was provided in the room. There is also plenty of parking available on-site. Excellent location for getting to the Quay and town centre plus the Lighthouse Centre for cinema and theatre is also close.

Just a 15-minute stroll from Bournemouth Beach, Balincourt is an award-winning guest house offering 5-star rooms and hearty breakfasts. The Victorian house is half a mile from Bournemouth Station.

It was non pretentious but clean and comfortable. Definitely worth the money and I would love to return at some point. Helpful friendly staff, good location.

Washington House Hotel offers boutique accommodation in a Grade-II-listed Victorian Villa in central Bournemouth. It has free parking and is 5 minutes' walk from the beach and pier.

We had a wonderful one-night stay at this apartment. The place was impeccably clean — from the bedding and towels to the apartment itself, everything was spotless and fresh. The owner was exceptionally friendly and chatty, which made us feel very welcome. After check-out, he kindly allowed us to leave our car and explore the area a bit more — a thoughtful gesture we really appreciated. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and pleasant stay!

    Lovely cute little apartment, bright, clean and comfortable, a little home from home. It was well equipped, nice kitchen and bathroom, plenty of fresh towels provided. Nice decor and decent wardrobe space with lots of hangers 🙂. Great location close to shops, Poole Quay, Poole station. A bus ride or drive to the beach. Well maintained entrance lobby, and a smooth process of getting in. Good communication from the hosts. As a solo female traveller I felt safe. It was very quiet in the corridors and lobby.

    One of our best bed and breakfast experiences so far. And we had a lot. Lovely heart-warming place with great hosts. Amazing breakfast. Our daughter had lots of fun with the 2 doggies and the toys and books that the hosts were sharing with us. Everything in this place spreads out pure Love. Cant wait to see you again. Thanks so much for this wonderful experience.

    Really lovely apartment in a great location. It is a short walk into the town and the building it self was clean and quiet with a nice view of the water. The apartment was well stocked with everything you need and we quickly felt comfortable there. The host Alan made it very easy to get in with clear instructions and he also reached out once we were settled on the first night to ensure everything was okay, which was nice.
