Top Friars Cliff Beach Hotel Reviews

The Kings Arms, WorldHotels Distinctive

10/10 Excellent

"A character hotel in a great location. Room very comfortable and the staff were excellent. Would definately stay again if i was in Christchurch and would certainly recommend to anyone."

Harbour Hotel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"We found all staff so friendly and helpful. Entering the hotel gave a feeling of relaxation comfort and homely. Variety of food choices giving tasty evening meals and breakfast although I thought it too much to charge an extra £10 each for a fried breakfast whereas other hotels it’s included in the room cost. Our room was very comfortable with a superb shower"

The Bear of Burton

10/10 Excellent

"The Bear of Burton was a perfect location for our two night stay visiting the New Forest. We were lucky to receive a complimentary upgrade upon arrival which made our stay even better. The bathtub in the room is a perfect addition when you’ve had long walks throughout the day. Food was lovely and the rooms themselves were absolutely spotless. I wouldn’t hesitate to return and recommend this lovely hotel."

The Jetty - pet friendly and by the beach on Sandhills Holiday Park, Mudeford

Mudeford, Dorset. Spectacular Seafront Views. Perfect Family Getaway. Driveway.

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed a wonderful four days at this property. It's a proper home with real soul. Lovely artwork on the walls and everything you could possibly need. Looks better in real life than in the photo's. The location was superb. Great to soak everything in from one of the balconies and just a short stroll to the beach for early morning swims. We parked the car and didn't use it again until we left. We walked into Christchurch one day, got the ferry across to Hengistbury Head for a big coastal walk and also walked along the beach to Highcliffe Castle another day. Beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Amber was great and we'll definitely be back for another visit!"
