Good base to visit Bournemouth & surrounding areas
Arrived earlier than check in but was permitted to park our car there whilst we had a stroll to kill time. Short walk to the beach, downhill. Check in quick & room lovely, comfy bed & a great shower. Lobby area & garden all lovely too. A great base to explore Bournemouth & beyond. We travelled to Poole, studland, Swanage. A great place to paddle board at knoll beach & a fish & chips on a boat cruise from Poole harbour.

Away for work
I have stayed here quite a few times over the last 3 years. Always a great welcome, free parking and comfortable rooms. Venue is immaculately clean and this time I used the dining room to do some work, rather than in my room (which was 14). Room was a single bed room but enough space for 1-night stay. Ensuite is "cosy" but again good enough for a 1-night stay. The only let down was I asked for decaf tea/coffee when I made my booking and none was provided. TV in room was "app based" with no terrestrial channels, wifi was okay. Lots of places within walking distance to eat out / get takeaway.
