Rooms are fitted with a flat-screen TV, a mini silent fridge and a Tassimo coffee machine. You will find a kettle in the room. For your comfort, you will find free toiletries and a hairdryer. Mory House features free WiFi throughout the property.

The breakfast was incredible (I mean it) and so timely. A very nice touch for you to eat in your room. Hosts were warm and helpful. Very close to the beach as well which is quiet and clean. I read the previous reviews of Mory House so frankly I expected nothing less. Would recommend twice over.

Southern Breeze Lodge is located in Southbourne, Bournemouth, just 200 metres from the cliffs, overlooking 7 miles of sandy beaches. The Lodge offers rooms with free WiFi and free parking.

Each bedroom at Southern Breeze features an LCD TV, radio and tea/coffee-making facilities. They include private bathrooms with shaving points and hairdryers.

This was a lovely stay. If possible, I would grant 11/10 stars, not just 10. A very nice building, neatly and tastefully furnished, sunny, friendly room (mine was Nr.5), a freshly baked slice of cake each morning, a wide range for breakfast, high quality sanitary items in the modern bathroom and in total a sustainable approach. I hope to be back and would look forward to meet these lovely hosts again.

    Very lovely interior design and style. Good to have a pool and sauna which was quiet and pleasant. Good food choices on the menu. Good price drinks and seemed like good entertainment for group tours. The cleaning staff and room attendants were hard working. Room had all you needed. It was quiet at night times. Good spaces to relax in and staff were friendly. Good that you could open a window in the room if needed, so didn’t feel stuffy. Great location for town centre.

    This apartment is in an amazing location, close to a stunning cliff top walk down to beach or Bournemouth town, & close to all the amenities. Eaglescliffe is a spacious apartment and has everything you need for a lovely break away. We absolutely loved the warm and stylish interior design with thoughtful touches, we felt very relaxed here and had a lovely time, can't recommend this place enough.
