If your looking for something a little bit rustic, a little bit cute, a little bit little and a little bit different (for 1 person) you may have found it. If it's for business or pleasure - this is a little bit of offbeat! Its set in a lush garden in the tree lined East Cliff area of Bournemouth. You can pop to the beach or take a 20 minute stroll along the seafront to Bournemouth Towns metropolitan shops, theatres and bars. Easy access to the train/coach station. Photos by CaptivateByChloe
