Quayside Quarters

This is a difficult review to write, I really did not want to be negative. The property is in a fabulous spot, close to all amenities, the quay, ferries, buses, trains. No real need to use your car at all. On the ******* website, this property is described as a 3star bed and breakfast. Reviews also mention a simple but lovely breakfast, one of the main reasons for booking. Unfortunately, they no longer do breakfast. The shower, despite following instructions failed to reach any kind of warm temperature. The mattress was in need of replacement, sagging at sides and in the middle, resulting in very poor sleep and us ending our stay a day early. There were also plumbing issues, however I believe these will be resolved very shortly and Jenny was extremely apologetic. There is a fridge with wine etc in and an honesty box, which is a nice touch but not something we used. Overall, this is a great property and great location but needs a bit of TLC.

A very clean and well decorated room, everything was as described on website, safe parking and very convenient for Poole Quay and ferry terminal.

For our ****ing anniversary we had a wonderful stay at the Quayside Quarters. The accommodation was well positioned in Quayside but not easy to find using Google Maps . Jenny the owner rescued us , gave us warm welcome despite us missing her texts needing information on our arrival time for her convenience. The room had delightful decor . A lovely touch was lots of candles in bathroom. Also, there were ample cosmetics , drinks in room if we were short of anything. What was most helpful was a guide in room written in amusing way the dos and dont’s with useful tourist information of area. A appreciated touch was on last day we were planning the Cockle walking tour and Jenny printed out 20 pages as user friendly guide for tour. Staying at Quayside Quarters certainly enhanced our celebrations.

Ideal base for exploring Poole and the surrounding area. Property is lovely in a very quiet area but just a very short walk to the quayside and lots of bars and restaurants. Jenny is very helpful and supplied a very well stocked honesty bar. Also provided lots of information based on her extensive local knowledge.

This is a fantastic place to stay if you want to spen some time exploring Poole. It is just a couple of minutes walk from the quayside - far enough away for it to be quiet and peaceful but close enough to feel a part of everything. The room itself is fairly small but very well organised and appointed. The owners seem to have thought of everything and the honesty bar mini fridge was a very nice touch. Jenny was extremely helpful with arrangements for our arrival and departure. One very good feature is that there is secure parking at the back of the property.

We had a wonderful 3 days, staying at Jenny and Paul's lovely b&b, a 100yds or so from the actual quay. Our room was on the 2nd floor and was beautifully clean with everything you could wish for - tea/coffee, lovely comfortable bed, mini bar, view of church. Breakfast was continental style and Jenny could not have been more helpful - even asking what we liked in case she didn't have it but everything we wanted - fresh fruit, yogurts, cereals, breads, jams and marmalades etc were all there. The property is very well and tastefully decorated and there was even room to park our car at the rear of the property; which was wonderful. there is an interesting pub at the top of the street and a profusion of restaurants, pubs and cafes very close. we would not hesitate to recommend this gem of a property. Please note that the photograph on trip advisor is not correct and needs to be changed to reflect the true building

Great place to visit and enjoy the sunshine and have a meal or drink with friends Watch the world go by and see the boats coming in and out of the harbour Road bridge opens and closes when large boats go through Everyone was very friendly and helpful The old customs house restaurant was excellent

The wife and I stopped at this lovely B&B whilst on a surprise visit to a friend the location is superb only minutes away from the quay Yet in a totally tranquil position with a secure gated entrance Jenny the owner was really helpful and recommended us a place to eat which was superb the room was lovely breakfast was nice and the whole place had lots of attention paid to detail everything you could want for a nice stay has been thought of We can’t wait to return:-)

Great communication, great location, very comfortable, would definitely recommend and stay again, thank you.
