You’re also able to hire out a beach hut and make use of well-maintained shower facilities.

    Very beautiful unfortunately I didn't go sightseeing this time as I was playing Chess for a week.I have been to Poole before and thought it was great. Good place to go for a holiday as many places to visit but the Holiday Season is the best time to visit.

    Check out The Haven Hotel for a coffee.

    Check out The Haven Hotel for a coffee. Leave your car there and your car registration with Reception. Then go across the chain ferry as a foot passenger for a pound. Explore the beaches and then check out Shell Bay Restaurant for a glass of wine and sunset.

    There is limited parking particularly when in the holiday season. Queues for the Sandbanks Ferry can cause congestion. Choose restaurants carefully and know where you are going to park. Worth booking the restaurant even if out of season.

    We arrived before the official check-in time, but were still made welcome. Our room was a decent size with a good walk-in shower. Breakfast was in the downstairs dining room on a "help-yourself" basis. Big bowls of fresh fruit and yoghurt were a great addition to the usual cereals and toast. It was also great to have the flexibility of timing - from 6.30am. Location (see also below) - the good part, being very close to Poole Park and on a good bus route both to Poole harbour and to Sandbanks (for the ferry to Studland).
