Bournemouth

Does anyone know Bournemouth well please?

I'm looking for a hotel with good onsite parking for the night before we move DS into Uni, looking at the Premiere Inns and all their parking seems to be off site.

Thank you

Hi, whereabouts is his accommodation? Is it in the Lansdowne area?

Hi, it is yes, but i don't mind driving a little distance, his moving in slot isn't until 11am.

I would switch to Poole instead - my parents live in Bournemouth but it's easier for us to use the Premier Inn's in Poole and we just recently stayed in the new Travelodge Poole North - they all have on site free parking (and you don't have to deal with the town traffic either).

Or you could try Christchurch but we've not stayed there as Poole is closer to where my parents live.

Fantastic, thank you. I'd had a quick look at the PI in Poole, may go ahead and book that then

I would go for the Premier Inn Bournemouth East (Boscombe) Hotel which is on the main road between Boscombe and Bournemouth and minutes away from the Lansdowne area where his accommodation is. There is a small car park there too.

The Premier Inn in Boscombe has free onsite parking, and it isn't far to Lansdowne.

The Village in Bournemouth is your best bet. Free parking and easy access to the university
