Overview

3-star boutique hotel with free parking and full breakfast near Bournemouth beach

Rooms & Accommodations

Each of the 9 rooms features boutique-style decorations with unique personal touches, including handmade cookies and fresh milk in a mini fridge upon arrival. Rooms include en suite bathrooms with shampoo, shower gel, and soap, plus a flat-screen TV and ironing facilities. A complimentary bottle of water and fresh bottled milk replace standard sachets, while some rooms offer a DAB radio and classical music playing on entry.

On-Site Dining

The traditional pub restaurant serves freshly home-cooked food with a menu that changes to feature local produce, including dishes like Korean chicken burger, mushroom pasta, and fish and chips with crispy batter. A dedicated children's menu is available, and the breakfast menu offers Eggs Royale, Eggs Benedict, and a full Butcombe breakfast - all included in the room rate. The bar stocks Madri and Peroni alongside an extensive wine list, and a two-for-15 cocktail offer runs on dark and stormy drinks.

Pet-Friendly Amenities

Dogs are welcomed with complimentary treats at the front desk and a dedicated doggy drink station in the outdoor seating area. Pet bowls are provided in the room, and staff offer free dog sausages at breakfast. The garden and outdoor terrace are open to dogs, with plenty of seating for owners to enjoy meals alongside their pets.

Services & Extras

Free off-road parking is available directly in front of the building, and express check-in/check-out speeds arrival and departure. Luggage storage allows guests to leave bags after checkout, and the hotel provides CCTV in common areas and outside for security. Daily housekeeping keeps rooms tidy, while the staff offer personalized welcome gestures such as a bottle of prosecco or beer for some guests.
