An excellent and well equipped property as listed. Our family had a wonderful stay. 1min walk to both Quay and high street. with plenty of cafes, bars, restaurants and evening entertainment. Beaches and parks in walking distance too.
Owners are very friendly and provided excellent communication.
Would highly recommend!

Thank you very much for your kind words, I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. We’d welcome you back anytime, an absolute pleasure!
Beautifully maintained and well equipped cottage. Short walk to quay for bars and wide range of restaurants. Boat trips to island and around coast leave from the quay. Recommended.
Quayside cottage is a great place to stay if you’re visiting Poole, we’ve stayed in a few locations around Baiter park but this was central working a short walk of the Quay and surprisingly quiet as well. The property has everything you need for a stay and a bonus of some outside space if you’re not out and about and is clean throughout. Host was very helpful and quick to communicate and listened to feedback. Would highly recommend Quayside Cottage.
