The Winter Dene

Such a fabulous stay at the Winterdene. Beautiful and clean room with lots of space with lovely paintings dotted around the hotel. It felt more like a home in a good way than a hotel. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious and we had a lovely view of the garden whilst eating. The place was spotless- couldn't fault it. Easy walk to the beach and the town centre and parking at the hotel too.

Stayed with my children as we were attending a family event in the area. Breakfast was initially advertised and breakfast times were even displayed in our room, but when we attempted to get a breakfast there was nothing available. No staff on site to ask about this, just a doorbell with the note to ring for help and a sign next to it stating explicitly don't ring it. Room lacked the little details that were advertised, not something that hindered our stay but not what we were expecting. Very quiet building, rooms themselves were spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable, bathroom facilities were good. Reading older reviews on here it seems the hotel used to be quite a reputable venue with a great deal to offer. Now it seems they've let a few things slide but still charge high end fees!!

The management team and staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was huge and excellent! The beds were extremely comfortable. There was plenty of storage space in the room by way of a wardrobe (complete with safe) and two large sets of drawers. Parking is available on site with plenty of room to do a 3-point turn in a Volvo XC90. The hotel is in an excellent location for the beach and town centre. Rooms were cleaned daily, and tea/coffee/condiments were topped up daily without us needing to ask (unlike many large hotel chains I could mention). We would definitely recommend the Winter Dene, and look forward to returning. My son was fascinated by the owner's mineral display cabinet...and was overjoyed to be given a big lump of quartz the following morning by the hotel manager.

We had such a beautiful stay at Winter Dene, that we actually booked an extra night to stay on. The proprietors were very friendly and Renzo was always hilarious at breakfast, which by the way was absolutely gorgeous. The Hotel was very clean, large rooms, also very quiet. The location was great, a short walk to either the Beach or the Town Centre. We will definitely be returning when we are in Bournemouth. This Hotel should be Rated as a 5*. Many thanks Rob & Tracey
