Well presented property

Property is comfortable and has everything that we needed for our stay. Bedrooms and bathrooms are well decorated. Conveniently located for visits to Poole and Bournemouth. Only downside was the internet which was very poor and kept cutting out.

We'd didn't end up staying at the booked property - which was a very last-minute drama; but HE offered an alternative apartment which proved OK despite a couple of drawbacks. HE staff were very attentive and their efforts to be helpful went to the extent of offering financial compensation.

Family visits

several members of our family were visiting my parents who live up the road and this property was perfect for us. It is ideally located near Ashley Cross with easy access to great coffee shops, restaurants and pubs (Bermuda Triangle is our fav) If you are a runner or walker, great walks to Poole Park, Baiter and Poole Quay. With a car or on the bus easy travel to Poole, the Purbecks or the countryside. Our hosts were very generous and available, not that we needed it as the flat was clean, well appointed and everything worked great. Thanks again and see you soon. Family S.

Amazing property

Such a lovely flat, the whole family really felt comfortable - a very high standard of decor and fittings, the showers were especially good. The area was fantastic for our favourite beach at Sandbanks, and for exploring Dorset. Would recommend trips to Lulworth Castle, The Blue Pool and The New Forest for walks. Will definitely be returning. Thank you!

Very tasteful, comfortable and high quality furnished holiday flat. Beautiful bathrooms with showers at ground level, which are easy to use for people with walking difficulties. Well equipped kitchen - thank you for the great welcome pack. There were even coffee capsules available. There are good shopping facilities, pubs and cafés in the immediate vicinity.

Gorgeous property, will gladly return

Just as beautiful an apartment as the photos suggest and excellent communication from the management team. Comfortable bed and great blackout curtains. Lovely location in a quiet cul-de-sac. (The neighbours played some music in the early evening that we could hear since it was hot enough for us to have the windows open, but it had stopped by the time we were putting the kids to bed.) There was even more provided for our 10 month old and 3 year old than expected! (In addition to the high chair, selection of plastic cutlery/crockery, toys, games, books and travel cot we were expecting, there was a non-slip bath mat, bath toys, bathroom step, and toilet seat insert, plus the cot was fully made up and we were provided with a full set of beach towels.) Racking my brains to think of anything I've ever been provided with in a hotel but didn't have at The Hideaway, all I can come up with is a box of tissues! 4 stars not 5 for check-in because we were asked to wait outside for a bit on arrival while the host checked the cleaners had left everything perfect. Otherwise can't find fault. Will definitely book again next time we visit our friend in Poole.

Toller Urlaub in einer tollen Wohnung :-)

Die Wohnung ist super schön, sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht...und noch mehr! Alles sehr liebevoll und hochwertig eingerichtet, einfach zum wohlfühlen. Die Kommunikation mit dem Team der Agentur war super nett, herzlich und unkompliziert. In der Nähe gibt es einen kleinen Park, Geschäfte, Restaurants und Cafes. Alles zu Fuß zu erreichen, auch eine Bahnstation. Mit dem Auto kann man viele schöne Ausflüge rund um Poole und der Jurassic Coast machen. Wir haben hier 2 sehr schöne Wochen verbracht und kommen bestimmt wieder :-) Danke für alles Nicole

Last minute weekend!

Weekend break to pool to attend a friends birthday and hang out on the beach. We had a different property booked, but it was cancelled at the very last minute. We were so excited leased to find this one still available and the owners did everything they could to make it possible. Well appointed spacious flat, everything you need - great location and parking. Would recommend, top tip - if you are willingly to walk for 10 minutes you don’t need to pay the beach parking fees, and the beaches are quieter if you aren’t near the parking!
