Blue Swell sits really close to the harbours edge and has large patio doors overlooking the view on the top two floors . We enjoy this so much . Even on a bad weather day you can sit and enjoy watching activity in the harbour . The living room has a small balcony with a bistro table and chairs to sit with a coffee or glass of wine and the patio garden outside the kitchen door has a very good sized table and plenty of chairs for eating outside on sunny days . The house is extremely well equipped with everything you need and we found it beautifully clean . A delightful place .
Very welcoming hosts, exceptionally clean and comfortable flat. There was even a pint of milk and a bottle of wine in the fridge when we arrived!
Fantastic apartment, clean and comfortable. Near to the beach and amenities. Really lovely stay there, didn't want to leave.
This was an ideal find for us. We had 6 adults, a 5 year old and a baby. The garden is secure so as the children could play out safely. We spent most of our time in the evening sitting outside or around the kitchen table. We cooked breakfast they have every pot, pan and utensil you could need, apart from a grill pan which we got over. This property is only a 5-10 minute walk to the beach. The only negative thing I have to say is there isn’t a mirror in the basement bedroom for drying your hair, but again I got over it. This property was a fabulous find and we will definitely return.
But a bit dark- cold Good to have a heater VERY old Fashioned: Coin machine for electricity and warm water
This was our third stay at Pippin House. We like its location, relatively quiet but still close to Bournemouth and Durley Chine beach. The accommodation is clean and comfortable with good beds and an adequate lounge area/kitchen facility as well as a parking bay. The Smart Home staff were friendly when approached and agreed a later departure time to assist our getaway. The only negatives were a faulty TV that provided an unwatchable pixelated picture, and a broken extractor fan in the bathroom which was an inconvenience, An offer to call and look at the TV was declined as it would have blocked...more
I’ve reviewed this property already and had to fight for a refund granted by Airbnb directly since the landlord doesn’t believe in customer satisfaction. In summary, it’s damp, there’s black mold in the shower, the washing machine needs cleaning and the inner rubber ring fixed, drainage and cleanliness in the kitchen sink is poor. The wall panel heater has brown heat marks, the ventilation in the bathroom is poor (requiring the main ground floor windows in the bedroom to be opened for air flow) and probably the cause of the general damp miasma in the flat. Good luck.
Because of the double booking we didn't stay in the apartment above instead we stayed in a place which was on the third floor,was very hot in the building and in the flat,very loud outside at night and not possible to leave the windows open and having blinds shut because the blinds where banging on the windows,the lift had two buttons pushed in and as a result we had to walk up the stairs through out our stay although the lift 'worked'. The emergency contact person was rude and we waited 2 days for a TV to work. They didn't provide a folder explaining how to use appliances and that is very im...more
