Cranborne House

Location was great for the town and quay side.

The bed creaked loudly and mattress lumpy.

Spotlessly clean, comfortable, nice decor, lovely host, great location, parking. Would definitely recommend and would return when next visiting Poole.

Excellent location, close enough to local facilities (old town harbour 20 mins away at a steady pace) but also very peaceful. Some good local facilities, like waterfront dining and a supermarket just 10 mins away. Nice neighbourhood: property and car park felt very safe, so it was a great base for setting out on daily excursions with the peace of mind of knowing everything would be fine on return. Both the rooms we booked were ‘tall person friendly’: no low beams or things to bump your head on and the beds didn’t have any obstructions at the end, so we could fit in them easily for a good night’s sleep. Bath was a good size too! A really warm welcome for the whole family and help was always on hand if we needed it, but as it happened everything was fine and just as we would want!

Location is excellent and the property is beautiful. I spoke with Susan beforehand and the process of getting access to the property was very smooth. The property has a kitchen for use by people staying there and was fully stocked with milk, coffee, tea, sugar and also bread and butter for helping yourself to toast. There was also a kettle in the room with tea and coffee and you could help yourself to milk from the fridge in the kitchen as a milk jug was provided in the room. There is also plenty of parking available on-site. Excellent location for getting to the Quay and town centre plus the Lighthouse Centre for cinema and theatre is also close.

Cranborne House has the air of a home from home and everything is organised in a practical manner: well-equipped kitchen, comfortable bedroom, shower/bathroom, common areas, all well-presented and comfortable. Even the exterior and gardens are appealing and welcoming! And the private owner couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful.

Nothing I can think of
