  • "Great place to stay."

    Bigger than I expected. Very comfortable and had everything you would need. Location near the beach and facilities. We had a great holiday and my granddaughter did not want to leave.

  • "I’ll just mention a couple of negatives but must emphasise that we were very pleased with the accommodation overall."

    Firstly, we arrived two days before the mixed recycling bin needed to be put out. The bin was full to overflowing and whoever had filled it was not very particular about what they had put in it. The general waste bin was due for collection the week after we had left. This bin was also completely full on arrival and therefore we had nowhere to put our rubbish. Secondly, there were three beds in the second bedroom but nowhere to hang or store clothes. We had to keep our clothes in our suitcases whereas we would have preferred to have at least a chest of drawers to store our clean clothes. One small issue was that there were no egg cups so we had to improvise when my 6 year old granddaughter had a dippy egg. The flat was spacious and the garden was lovely if not well maintained. The lady at 8A (upstairs flat) grumbled at us for using the front door to unpack the car because it made her two dogs bark. Another neighbour said we were too noisy when using the basket ball hoop. I guess these people would rather not have holiday groups in a property next door. The bathrooms were modern and clean. There was a plentiful supply of hot water and there was a good selection of games and puzzles for adults and children. The location was quiet and reasonably secluded and just a ten minute walk to the cliff top or a good sized Sainsbury’s. We were very happy with the property and would book again especially because we have family living in Boscombe Spa Road which is a 15/20 minute walk away.

    The kitchen was well stocked with plates, cups, cutlery etc Main Bed room had en suit and good double wardrobe with lots of hangers, Plenty of room on the drive for 2 or 3 cars, entrance to drive a bit tight though- but you do get used to it. We felt right at home, loved the fact it was only a 5 minute walk to the beach, less than 10 minutes walk to shops, pubs, restaurants We would certainly book this lovely property again and will recommend it to our friends

  • "We liked the house very much."

    One or two ideas for improvements: 1. A dressing table of sorts in main bedroom. 2. Eggcups! 3. "Beware of the step" to the kitchen. 4. Clearer instruction about the general rubbish bin - took me a while to find it, outside on pavement instead of with others. Also bags for bin liners. Also the recycling food bin had many rotten apples and many insects in it, with no liner to remove the invaders. Apart from the above you might like to know (or not) that we left 2 days early because my husband was unwell.

The property

Resting within a prime location, just a stone's throw away from a host of amenities and the shoreline in Boscombe, Dorset, is Molly's Place, a ground-floor maisonette apartment.

Conveniently nestled near an abundance of attractions, and a short drive away from the popular seaside town of Bournemouth, the apartment welcomes four guests and one well-behaved dog, providing all the essentials for a self-catered stay.

Park up on the private driveway and make your way through the wrap-around garden, before arriving at the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can rustle up delicious meals or simply enjoy a coffee whilst planning your itinerary.

For formal dining, locate the living/dining room, where you can also unwind in front of the TV after a busy day of exploration.

When sleep calls, select between a double with en-suite, and a twin, both serviced by the main bathroom, where you can enjoy either a shower ahead of your agenda.

Once you're ready to explore your surroundings, grab some brunch at the Little Pickle Deli Café, or make reservations at Marco Polo, a popular Italian restaurant, before stocking up on the necessities at a nearby convenience store.

Start your plans locally by touring Boscombe Pier and beach, or for elevated views climb up to Boscombe and Southbourne Overcliff.

Next stop, discover Bournemouth and its plethora of attractions, where you can experience something for all the family, including a visit to Oceanarium aquarium or the Bournemouth Aviary, zip across the town at PierZip at RockReef, enjoy an ice cream upon Bournemouth Pier, attend one of the many event showings at the Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre or discover the Russell Cotes Art Gallery & Museum for an artistic activity.

Travelling towards Christchurch, stop off at the breath-taking landscape of Hengistbury Head Beach, tour the remains of Norman House, or take a stroll alongside the River Stour, before returning west towards Poole, for a tour of the local museum and to people watch along the quay.

Experience all of this, and more, at Molly's Place.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
