Nice large rooms with high ceilings. Room was very clean and staff were friendly. Very handy for getting in to the town centre by foot. Finding the place was easy and there was parking - which you cannot say for most central hotels in Bournemouth.

We loved Little Robin Gate so much! Beautiful house, lovely room and garden view, free parking, some gorgeous little touches in the room such as a Good Luck banner and note from David ahead of my Daughter's competition. Plus Pumpkin, the main attraction of course. David is an exceptional host!

We were immediately met with a friendly face upon check in who was really helpful in giving us all the info we needed. Room was bigger than expected, beds were extremely comfortable and we slept amazingly. Bathrooms were generous in size for a small hotel and very clean and comfy. Overall a great nights stay. Close to local high street too which was very helpful.

    The hotel is a charming boutique establishment with a great location, within walking distance to the beach and shops. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy. I stayed for one night and had a good experience.

    Lovely home to stay away in. Great location, near to town and beach but still very quiet. Everything in the home you could wish for and lots of extras too! Plenty of space for a family. Our hosts left bread, milk. Coffee, tea, biscuits and much more! A nice surprise! Would visit again, no problem. Thank you Jemma!

    A very comfortable and attractive guest house. Hosts have given much care and attention to detail ensuring an enjoyable stay. I felt pampered! A great balance of feeling homely yet luxurious. Breakfast was delicious with lots of choices. On a quiet attractive street but very close to beach/shops/eateries/buses. Good off street parking. Great location to explore from or simply enjoy local area. I highly recommend.

    Very friendly and hospitable hosts. The room was clean and comfortable. Great location - the property is around 7 min away from the train station, yet in quiet neighborhood and close to the city center and the coast.
