Close local amenities

Thus is the second time staying. It is conveniently close to our family so we can visit but still have space away. Great location for visiting Dorset attractions and shopping in Bournemouth and Poole. Only downside is no wifi

Hi Karen, thank you for your 5* review and feedback. It's great to hear that the location is convenient for visiting your family and exploring local attractions in Dorset. Being able to have your own space while being close to loved ones is definitely a plus. However, we understand that the lack of WIFI can be inconvenient. If having WIFI is important to you, it might be worth considering discussing this with our reservations team next time you book and they will be more than happy to assist you in finding a property which is advertised with WIFI. Overall, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the location to be convenient for your purposes. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again soon. Kind Regards, Bournecoast Holiday Agents.

Convenient location

We were at the property for 10 days. It was conveniently situated to family close by, the beach and a little bit of Sightseeing. A mix up with the door code was quickly sorted with the property management. Off road parking was great as the area was very busy with on road parking. Wifi would have been good but wasn't absolutely necessary for our stay

Nice house, area not so great

House was great with some very lovely and welcome touches - kitchen basics for us to use, really comfy beds with lovely linen, books and dvds available, easy to use heating and appliances and some useful info about the area too - though we really could have done with recommendations about local restaurants as we weren’t sure where to go in a hurry with hungry kids. WiFi and a hairdryer would also be useful. The main thing was the area the house is in is a little rundown for our tastes, but as you get into Boscombe and onto the beach it’s lovely. All in all a lovely stay though! Thank you!

Good accomodation No WiFi

We enjoy our holiday. The access to the House with a Code works without problems. In the kitchen you find everything they have one fridge extra for drinks and one huge with a freezer. One thing is important when you car is huge like a estate car in our case parking could be a challange the road to the house is very crowded. The neighbours were nice and moved their cars that we could park. The only missing thing was WiFi. I hope they work on it.

Hi Stephan, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed your holiday and found the accommodation to be convenient, with smooth access and a well-equipped kitchen. It's also great to hear that the neighbours were helpful. This accommodation is not advertised with WIFI, however we will pass this feedback on to the owner so they can take it into consideration for the future. We have advised them in the past that providing WIFI access would certainly enhance the overall experience for their guests. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, Bournecoast Holiday Agents.

Hi Rolf, than you for taking the time to review our property. Whilst we appreciate your feedback it does come as a bit of a surprise to us because this accommodation historically has very good reviews with an average of 4.5 stars out of 5 and many guests have given it a 5 star review. We understand you had some concerns about some areas of the cleaning on your arrival and you contacted our Customer Service team. The changeover agent came straight to the property to assist you. It is a shame you still felt the cleanliness was not suitable after this and we can only assume that on this occasion it is possibly that your expectations were much higher than other guests who have previously graded the cleanliness as very good. We are sorry that the accommodation did not meet your expectations and will pass this feedback on to the changeover agents. Thank you again for taking the time to give us your feedback. Regards, Bournecoast Holiday Agents.

Looks a little worn in the area but don't let that put you off. Bus station is ten mins walk and with cheap family tickets with regular buses, we went all over. Very highly recommended.

Boscombe August 2020

Check in poor. Cleaner there upon arrival. Pleasant woman and very helpful. When she left we checked access code working as hadn’t previously. Didn’t work. Panic stations as near 5pm. Couldn’t access online help. Spoke to neighbor who had owner number. Called owner who gave new code which worked but no hint of apology which would have been very appropriate. Superficially all good with house. Inspection revealed living room sofas beyond best before date. Musty damp smells in several parts of house. Pans dangerous as handles scorching when boiled. Frying pans very unsightly. Table cloths unsightly. House probably fine a few years ago but now needs a makeover. Boscombe very deprived. Only a new government could manage the makeover needed there. Some of the environments that human beings are subjected to in this country are a disgrace.

Dear Declan, thank you for taking the time to leave you review. We are very sorry to hear that some areas of the property did not meet your expectations although this has come as a slight surprise as this is a very popular property and we didn't hear from you during your stay. We do recommend you contact our Customer Service team with any issues you experience at the time they occur and they will always do their best to resolve them for you (they are on duty seven days a week). That said we do appreciate your feedback and will pass the comments on to the owner of the property so they can check the areas you have reported. We do hope you were still able to enjoy the property and the local sandy beaches during your stay. Kind Regards Bournecoast Holiday Agents.

Wirklich „the coast with the most“

Sehr landestypische Unterkunft und so gemütlich, dass wir die Kinder zu Ausflügen überreden mussten. Keiner hat das WLAN vermisst (3 Teenager!) Im Haus ist alles Notwendige vorhanden, Bettwäsche und Handtücher ebenfalls in ausreichender Menge. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und die Möbel freundlich, aber Kleinkindtauglich. Ein Doppelbett, 2 Einzelbetten und im Wohnzimmer eine Schlafcouch- Ideal wäre es für 4 Personen, aber wir sind auch zu sechst untergekommen. Im Hof wird die Wäsche schnell trocken und eine windgeschützte Sitzecke auf der Terrasse lädt zum draußen sitzen ein bis sie trocken ist. Eine Bushaltestelle z.B. ins Zentrum von Bournemouth ist um die Ecke, die Einkaufspassage mit Busbahnhof in 7 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar und-für uns mit Kleinkind wichtig- der Kingspark mit großem Spielplatz genau gegenüber. Das Haus selbst liegt in einer ruhigen Seitenstraße im Stadtteil Boscombe, aber nah genug an allem wichtigen, wenn man wie wir ohne Auto anreist. Für manche größeren Ausflüge wird man vom Reisebus direkt in Boscombe abgeholt (Stonehenge z.B.). Zum Baden sind wir lieber die 15 Minuten an den gemütlichen Strand von Boscombe gelaufen, als mit dem Bus zum Strand von Bournemouth zu fahren. Und die Imbisse und Restaurants in der Fußgängerzone von Boscombe haben dazu geführt, dass wir „zuhause“ fast nur gefrühstückt haben. Das Essen ist toll dort! Boscombe mag nicht sehr nobel sein, aber dafür fühlt es sich schnell vertraut an und liegt sowohl ruhig als auch verkehrsgünstig. Wenn man nach ein paar Tagen alles erkundet hat, muss man nur den Linienbus nehmen und kann direkt nach Christchurch, Poole oder shoppen in der Fußgängerzone von Bournemouth. Dort ist immer was los. Oder man fährt wie wir von Christchurch mit der Fähre zum Ende der Bucht und läuft den endlosen Sandstrand entlang zurück nach Boscombe (nur für Leute, die gut zu Fuß sind ;o). Kurz vor der Abreise haben wir auch noch die sehr freundliche Vermieterin kennengelernt. Wir wollten garnicht mehr weg...

Clean, comfortable and well situated property but no internet

This property was well suited to our needs. It had enough space, and was clean and tidy throughout. Opposite a lovely park, a short walk into town, and with plenty of convenience stores close by. The outdoor space was great too. The lack of internet was a real disappointment though. I actually think this wasn’t clearly stated in the property description when I first booked some months ago because I wouldn’t have booked this property if I’d noticed it. The lack of internet was more prominent when I checked the details again some weeks later. If I want to be offline, I’d stay somewhere more remote. I don’t need moral judgement from a holiday house on whether I should be connected or not. If this property offers internet in the future, I’ll book again.
