The Staff are so lovely and very friendly. The Living room is in a great location, near the beaches, Bournemouth town, and within walking distance to cafes and restaurants. The breakfast served here in the morning is very generous and good. Would definitely stay here again.

We have just returned from 2 nights at this charming guest house, our room was immaculately clean with a beautiful bathroom and was so quiet and restful. The breakfast were unusual but very tasty, my husband loved the ham hock hash, and I would recommend the pancakes and the home made granola. It is in a great location, a short... More

Called in for a coffee and brownie. Great place to drop in. Wonderful brownie. Not the place we would expect to find hidden away. Quiet and unassuming and some parking spaces too. Would recommend to anyone going to Alum Chine.

We had a family Sunday brunch here this weekend and we felt we must leave a fabulous review. The staff were delightful, the food truly scrumptious and the room welcoming and trendy! They had a particularly lovely tea "London Fog" and the brownies were delicious. Thank you. x

Fantastic welcome by Andy - Pot of tea and freshly baked brownie. We chatted and he explained how to get to the local restaurants and the beach. Room 7 is at the top, Immaculate and joy of joys an actual teapot with the tea making equipment. Wifi worked fine even though I was at the top of the house. Breakfast... More

We have just returned from a three night stay at In our living room and we had a fantastic time. The B&B is situated within perfect walking distance from the beach, central Bournemouth and the piers. The breakfast menu has something for everyone and the service each morning was excellent. We booked room 3, which was the superior double and... More

Stayed for Bank Holiday weekend, good location near 2 great beaches and some really good restaurants. Great welcome from Andy and everyone friendly & helpful. Good breakfast, traditional but with a twist. Highly recommend.

We only stayed in Our Living Room for two nights in late March ... not enough time to get to know the owner Andy and his team but we were so very happy to be there. My grandfather has lived in Westbourne for 30 years and I know the area well. I am recommending this place to my whole family... More

Hi, Thank you for leaving a review, I hope your onward journey went well! I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Sorry about the smell you mentioned, we actually discovered a minor plumbing issue which we had fixed straight away that has sorted the problem. Really hope to see you again soon! More

We stayed for only one night on a brief trip to the area, but were made to feel very welcome by Andy who opened the door to us and made us a well needed pot of tea. The interior of the sitting / dining room is very tasteful and different to many dated B & Bs that you find. Our... More
