Excellent Guest House

Very impressed with this guest house. We parked the car and used buses (located just outside) to get about Bournemouth and Christchurch. Bus service very good. Everything about this b&b was of high standard. The only problem one might encounter was the noise of the main road. We were at the front of the house. If the window was closed it was not a problem but on a hot night it could be.

Room was cold for the price we paid. A very limited choice for breakfast. Not everything on the breakfast menu was available. The chicken slice tasted of pork.
Nick, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have just returned home from an excellent 5 night stay at Balincourt. Staff were always friendly and helpful. The accomodation was top class and the breakfast options very good. The location couldn't have been more convenient with bus stops adjacent and a pub opposite.
Stephen, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stunning flowers at the front of the building set the scene for this lovely little gem. The property and the grounds are clean, well kept, the owners clearly take great pride in their business. Little touches in the bedroom, bottled water, chocs plus the usual tea/ coffee facilities. Fantastic location, easy to get to town/ beach. On a main road served well by local transport, but not at all noisy. A lovely stay, thank you.

Harps and Ricky run a fantastic 5 star hotel. There is nothing you could complain about from friendliness, room, food, bar, parking. It was a magnificent 5 day break. There is no way that we would not return.
KEITH, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Wenn diese Unterkunft als zwei bis drei Sterne Unterkunft angegeben wäre, dann wäre sie okay. Es ist alles etwas heruntergekommen und altersschwach. Ich weiß wirklich nicht, wo die fünf Sterne herkommen sollen. Das Frühstück war gut, der Wein an der Bar furchtbar und der Zustand der Zimmer wahrlich nicht toll. Die Tapete blättert ab, der Teppich war dreckig, ebenfalls der Sessel.
Nicole, 1-night trip

Beautiful property with large, clean room and a nice beverage and breakfast lounge. Walking distance to town. Stocked with teas, coffee, water, cookies, hot chocolate, and chocolates. Would definitely recommend!

4/10 Fair

As reported TV not functioning, parking extremely tight for my SUV. Overall impression house is worn out, a bit of rust in one place, cracked or missing silicon in others. Staff very good and friendly. Don’t think Expedia should call this five star, there is no restaurant, just drinks bar and breakfast
