We had an amazing stay at this beautiful house that oozed a wonderful charming positive energy. The location was perfect, the space was so much bigger than in the pictures and the house was super cosy as well as being really well kitted out with everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this property for your stay without hesitation.

I am so happy you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your kind words and for being such lovely guests.
We had a great stay, some hot water problems due to new system not set up correctly but was resolved. Lovely house, very nice host, and everything as good as it could have been.
Excellent property and suited our needs perfectly. We were attending a wedding at nearby Compton Acres so location was perfect. The house was clean and well furnished. The welcome pack was superb. If only we could have had more time. Lovely walk down to the beach. Totally recommend this property.

Thank you choosing to stay, I am delighted you enjoyed your time here and wold love to host you again. Thank you for taking care of my home and leaving it so nice and tidy.
This is the best holiday house we have ever stayed in and we have stayed in many over the years. The house is beautifully furnished, comfortable, spotlessly clean and is equipped with everything one could possibly need, including a constant supply of lovely hot water. The back garden is a cosy haven for relaxing and dining al fresco and there is parking for three cars on the driveway. There is also a useful outdoor electricity socket where we charged our EV. The house is located on a very quiet residential road and is no more than twenty minutes walk from Branksome Chine Beach. Perfect!
Superb family holiday home near Branksome Chine Poole
This was our first holiday in Poole and we loved it. So much to do for all age groups, Oceanarium, Indoor climbing centre, paddle boarding, long beach walks on Branksome Chine and Poole beaches and ferry crossings to Studland. Branksome Chine is an easy 15 minute walk from there home location. Kimm our house host was very attentive and the house was perfect for a family of 9 with plenty of space for chilling out and large and comfortable bedrooms. We had a superb holiday and definitely repeateable.

Thank you for choosing to stay at my home. You are clearly a lovely respectful family and even left a gift for the bedroom mermaid!
I am very happy you enjoyed your visit to this beautiful part of the world. 🙏🏻
We were very happy with the property, condition, location and amenities were all good. Worked perfectly for family and friends. The property actually sleeps ten. If there is any criticism to make, for our long stay we needed more fridge/freezer space but perfectly adequate for short stays. Lovely walk to beautiful dog friendly beaches very close by. We did have the added benefit of perfect weather for the whole month, presumably carefully orchestrated by the very amenable owner of the property!! I would highly recommend, a lovely location for a family holiday

It was a pleasure to host you, your lovely family and beautiful dogs for a month.
Thank you for your kind words and for looking after my home so well.
You are all welcome to visit anytime again.
We had a wonderful stay at this stunning house. Fifteen minutes walk from a lovely golden sand beach and in a peaceful residential area it is in a great location. Moreover the house is filled with beautiful artworks and decorations, as well as dozens of fascinating books and a collection of interesting musical percussion instruments ( very much enjoyed by children big and small)! The kitchen is well equipped and all rooms and bathrooms are spacious and beautifully presented. The garden was also inviting, and offered a decked area and gas barbecue as well as lawn. The owner had left a hamper of goodies and full instructions as well as tips re local area. The only minor inconvenience was that the bed in the single bedroom is small both width and lengthwise and was unsuitable for taller members of our party, so this affected bedroom allocation.
Overall I would highly recommended this beautiful house for a holiday stay and very much hope to return again.
We stayed at this luxurious property for a week and had a fantastic time. The rooms are spacious and the kitchen/ conservatory is a wonderful area. 15 minutes to the beach from a nice quiet location. Kimm was also a great host - thoroughly recommend.

About the host
Hosted by Kimm Fearnley
I am a writer, yoga teacher healer and I am involved in charities in Nepal, Peru and India so travel a great deal. I have had a connection to this area for 30 years and bought a holiday home here 17 years ago in Christchurch and decided to make the area my main home in 2016 when I bought this house. I am working on a novel based in Greece and have just finished a children's book.
You may like to know that a large percentage of the funds raised from renting out my house will go to support mysmallhelp.org in Nepal, Welfare for Animals in Goa and various other charities, with my main areas of focus supporting women and girls in education in India and Peru and animal charities across the world.
Why they chose this property
It is beautiful, homely, light and quiet but close to the beach and all the amenities, A ten minute walk to Westbourne for local shops and restaurants. spacious, calm and a great race for relaxing and entertaining too.
