This is a fabulous property in a great location. The house is very well equipped with everything you might need. 12 of us were very comfortable here and could all sit at the dining table and in the lounge with its fabulous view out to Poole Harbour. Missing that view! Just across the road is a train station and in 5 mins and 1 stop you are down at Read morethe sea front for around 2.50 return. We were worried about parking but over a weekend the permit system does not apply so we parked very near by. Hide

Beautiful arrangement for a great social gathering . Light and airy with great views and very comfortable sofas and beds . Garden and balcony a real Bonus. Guests need to check out parking arrangements if they have more than two cars and their stay is during the week .

The location and accommodation itself was lovely. Not far from the shops and bars and close to the beach. Only one small problem with floor boards creaking .

Good base for lots of activities. House was adequate. Garden was not very well equipped if you wanted to spend the day in the garden. Lacked chairs and loungers for a large family and no shade/parasol. Parking was an issue as there was no on street parking and we had to pay to park locally which was not shared prior to booking.
