About Rose and Crown

Poole's harbour and the beaches towards Bournemouth are within easy reach of the Rose and Crown, a hotel set on the Wareham Road on the edge of town. It makes a practical base for exploring the Dorset coast, with a golf course nearby and pubs, restaurants and entertainment all within striking distance for evenings out.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, drinks available in room, and free WiFi throughout. Breakfast is served each morning, and the on-site restaurant and bar cover meals and drinks without needing to head out, with kids' meals available for families. A garden gives some outdoor space to relax in, and reception operates around the clock for whenever you arrive.

Free on-site parking is provided, which makes the Rose and Crown a sensible stopping point for anyone touring the area by car. It's a no-frills option geared towards comfort and convenience rather than extras, with the harbour, beaches and local golf course all forming part of what's on offer close by.
