Cranborne house is lovely and homely. It was the perfect stop for us and our 2 kids before heading home after getting off the ferry late.

Excellent little guest house in close proximity to Poole hospital and station. Sue was really welcoming, and helpful in ensuring I had everything I needed. I really appreciated being able to make my own breakfast in the morning, with a good selection of food and drink available, even though I was the only guest the night I stayed. Nice and quiet and spotlessly clean (although the cream carpet in the bedroom was a little marked) with good en-suite facilities. I would happily stay again and recommend it to others.
