    A lovely spacious and comfortable house, easily accommodating up to 8 guests. It is on the edge of a housing estate in a peaceful area with a lovely walk to Upton Park straight from the back gate. The swimming pool was a great asset, it was clean and heated to a good temperature. The house had everything you would need for a comfortable stay, although we thought several areas such as the bathroom, stair carpet and kitchen units were well used and dated and in need of an update. This did not affect the enjoyment of our stay however.

    We were looking for a property with a pool and with accommodation big enough for our extended family, but also needed it to be affordable. We hit the jackpot with Harbourside. The pool was clean and warm, the accommodation was homely and comfortable and the kitchen was really well-equipped. Situated in a quiet street, barely overlooked, and close to amenities/days out, the location was a massive added bonus.The hosts were incredibly warm and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure we had a truly memorable stay. Wouldn’t hesitate in recommending.

    Perfect. Very close to great walks both on beautiful heathland, coastal paths and around the bay and through Upton Park which we found far exceeded expectations. Easy to get the bus into Poole if don't want to take the car. The pool is a delight and the house cosy so relaxing after said walks is just the ticket.
