Historic family-run hotel on Bournemouth's East Cliff with free parking
Amenities
East Cliff Cottage Hotel offers free on-site parking, a rare find in central Bournemouth. Guests receive a fresh milk bottle in their room's mini-fridge each day, alongside biscuits and a selection of teas. The hotel welcomes dogs and provides a secure, quiet environment with key card access and smoke alarms throughout.
Rooms
Superior double rooms include roll-top baths and separate showers, seating areas, and views across Bournemouth Bay. Superior family rooms are spacious, with large bathrooms, twin beds available, and a fridge for guest use. Each room is individually decorated and historically styled - the building was formerly the home of actor Stewart Granger.
Dining
A traditional full English breakfast is cooked to order each morning, with free-range eggs and high-quality sausages. The menu also includes gluten-free and vegetarian options, plus a buffet of cereals, yogurts, fruit, and pastries. Homemade jams and marmalade are served, and packed lunches can be arranged on request.
Location
The hotel is a 10-minute walk from Bournemouth's sandy beaches and promenade, with direct coastal paths for miles of walking. Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre is 13 minutes on foot, and the Bournemouth International Centre is 18 minutes away. The property sits on a quiet, tree-lined road within easy reach of the town centre shops and restaurants.
Pet-Friendly
Dogs are welcomed at no extra charge and are allowed in guest rooms and the garden. The hotel is located near multiple dog-friendly beaches, and staff provide local recommendations for pet-friendly activities. A dedicated cabinet on the landing offers extra tea varieties and borrowable ironing boards for all guests.
