The staff were awesome ,extremely helpful!
Be prepared to climb stair to get to and from room.
My room was lovely, clean and comfortable! Nice size roomy!! Quiet
The breakfast options great!!
I enjoy walking so location is good!
Harps and Ricky run a fantastic 5 star hotel. There is nothing you could complain about from friendliness, room, food, bar, parking. It was a magnificent 5 day break. There is no way that we would not return.
Beautiful property with large, clean room and a nice beverage and breakfast lounge. Walking distance to town. Stocked with teas, coffee, water, cookies, hot chocolate, and chocolates. Would definitely recommend!
Exceptional stay. Room was spacious and decor was to a very high standard. Very clean and the bed was so comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice of hot and cold food. Quiet location and would highly recommend.
As reported TV not functioning, parking extremely tight for my SUV. Overall impression house is worn out, a bit of rust in one place, cracked or missing silicon in others. Staff very good and friendly. Don’t think Expedia should call this five star, there is no restaurant, just drinks bar and breakfast
Very clean and excellent dining area although the room was a bit dated. Could do with modernising TBH. Excellent staff, Commodities in room very good. Good parking facilities and quiet even though it's situated on a main road.

Disappointed overall.
Booked a Superior double room. The main room blinds were broke so we could not let any daylight into our room.
Bathroom sink plug kept getting stuck. Bath water temperature would not decrease so had to use kettle to cool the bath to a safe level before bathing. Not really superior in my opinion.The host was pleasant and serving staff friendly. Never saw anybody manning the bar in the evening so no nightcaps!
Breakfast excellent choice and cooked fresh. Room very spacious only complaint the bath very high so my husband struggled to get in to shower after a hip operation.

Warm welcome
A lovely stay. We have stopped before. It is conveniently situated between Bournemouth and Boscombe and not far from the seafront. Always a warm welcome and a comfortable room and a breakfast to look forward to.
Very impressed with this guest house. We parked the car and used buses (located just outside) to get about Bournemouth and Christchurch. Bus service very good. Everything about this b&b was of high standard. The only problem one might encounter was the noise of the main road. We were at the front of the house. If the window was closed it was not a problem but on a hot night it could be.
STAYED HERE FOR BOURNEMOUTH AIR SHOW. CANNOT FAULT ANYTHING. BREKKIE WAS YUMMY AND FREE, PARKING FREE. STAFF EXCEPTIONAL. WILL DEFINITELY STAY HERE AGAIN
Good base for exploring the locality and golf courses. Really clean. Breakfast tasty and efficient.
Fan in room was good.
We managed to park at hotel each day. There is alternative parking if hotel car park full.
Typical seaside guest house.
A very homely property with friendly and helpful staff. The bed was really comfortable and wow what a fantastic breakfast. A pretty garden with a lovely scent as you sit and enjoy the view. We would definitely return to Balincourt Guest House again.
