Family-friendly holiday rentals in Poole

Our second visit here, and will likely come back. Astrid is a great host and the stables are a lovely little space to stay with beautiful surroundings and a great location within the New Forest.

So nice to unwind, listen to the birds and decompress. Exactly what was needed with our hectic lives and schedules. Loved the quiet location and that our dogs could walk around the golf course and woods. Only recommendation we would make is a little freshen up and updating in some areas, like sealant around the bath (which was great by the way after a long day!) Having milk when we arrived was well appreciated, if there was a complimentary starter pack of some small jams/butter and scones - I'd give you 5* here! But a great stay nonetheless. Really comfortable.

Our stay was fabulous! We had the best time and the lodge was stunning. Everything we asked for. Mark and Maria were wonderful hosts and very accommodating. We would be definitely staying here again.

Definitely recommend Sam’s beautiful house. Immaculately kept garden with hot tub and huge trampoline which kept the children busy. All rooms with clean and had everything that we needed. Beds very comfortable and bathrooms were clean and showers etc all in good order. Thank you!

A homely and clean accomodation on beautiful settings on a farm, reminding us of memories of staying on farms in our childhood. Approximatley 30 mins from Weymouth where we carried out our bucket list - a visit to Durdle Door by boat, attendning the festival, swimming in the sea, going on the big wheel, eating delicious meals and relaxing in beautiful harbour settings. And where we could return from our days out to relax in our wonderful accomodation, sit in the garden, with a barley field backed on to us, listen to the cows in nearby fields and relax in the hot tub! Spending time together away from the hustle and bustle of life. Our host Jane made us feel very welcome, providing us with helpful information and was at the end of a phone or text if we needed any additional help. Thank you Jane - we made precious memories during our stay

We had a very lovely stay. Nicola provided a high chair and travel cot to accommodate for our 10 month old baby. The hot tub was lovely and private and the views were stunning.

A lovely place to stay, in walking distance of the beach and Weymouth centre. Hot tub and other facilities were very good and the place was clean, stylishly furnished and comfortable. Host was responsive when we had an issue (many thanks to Lorraine the cleaner too who was lovely and very helpful!)

We had a lovely stay at Victoria’s! The house was spotless and had everything we needed including baby things (travel cot, high chair and stair gate). The garden was completely enclosed which meant we were able to let the dogs off their leads while we sat outside. And wow the garden is a real sun trap! I would recommend the Barford Inn (4 min) walk for good pub grub and a nice outdoor area. We also spent the afternoon in the grounds of Wilton House which has a fantastic playground for toddlers and kids and a lovely cafe. Three nights wasn’t long enough so we’re hoping to come back in the near future!

What a lovely surprise for we history buffs to find ourselves in an historic church and graveyard. Once inside, delighted at the little touches on theme, eg welcome goodies greatly appreciated. On our long trip, the most comfortable beds and pillows yet. Also compared to many AirBNBs, Gordon’s place had good kitchen facilities eg plenty of cups, plates and cutlery etc.

A charming and cosy cottage right in the centre of town, but having said that its down a quiet side road so is really an ideal location. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you would need, beds are comfortable in good sized bedrooms, the log burner was very welcome as it was chilly when we stayed and the dining space in the conservatory is really good use of space. We didn't use the outside space but this could be lovely in warmer weather. Thank you Gillian, we really enjoyed your sweet cottage.

We had a lovely Stay, was in a perfect location to explore lots of amazing sights, beautiful views and lots of seaside town nearby. Sharon was very friendly and helpful and the place was comfy and had everything we needed.

We had a great stay at Matt’s place! The apartment was super clean and literally right next to Southbourne Beach—such a perfect spot for a family getaway. It was really handy having a patio door for loading and unloading the car, and everything we needed was close by. There’s a cute little café just down the road, the Co-op was fully stocked, and it’s just a short walk to some nice shops, bars, and restaurants. Overall, an ideal location and a really easy, comfortable stay. Would definitely come back. Thanks, Matt!

Matthew's property was perfect for myself and 2 friends. It's lovely and full of character, as well as well stocked with everything we needed (including a hairdryer, fan for the warm nights and some toiletries that we forgot). We enjoyed chatting at the table overlooking the large well maintained and beautiful garden on the sunny evenings. It was easy to find, very central in the New Forest, off the high street in the lovely Beaulieu village. It was exactly what we were looking for. We constantly saw horses on our drive to and from the property which just felt magical. Definitely a place I'd come back to.

Had a lovely time with our 4 month old and wanted somewhere outside of Bournemouth where it’s more peaceful and this didn’t disappoint. The apartment was spotless and everything was to a very high standard, including all provisions you’d need plus more… Jonathan has literally thought of everything and gone the extra mile to make it a home from home. Would 100% stay here again and recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Amanda and Chris, have a beautiful flat it was in an excellent location with lots of amenities and close to the beach. Amanda’s instructions were clear and the extra information provided was extremely useful. I would definitely recommend a visit, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

the studio was lovely, very light and airy was also very central for lots of different places to visit

Our family loved staying at the condo. Jacqui & Tony were extremely accommodating and answered all our questions in a speedy manner. The pool is a very nice touch to the air bnb. We used it once as the weather was very nice whilst we were there but definitely would’ve used more if the weather hadn’t been as good. Thanks Jacqui & Tony

The views from Seascape are wonderful and added greatly to our holiday. From sunny breakfast on the deck to cosy evenings watching the sun set we found everything we needed and we felt at home straight away. The lodge was immaculate and Judith dealt quickly with the only issue we had when the oven had a fault, so our holiday was not impacted greatly. It's a 15 minute walk into Swanage with an uphill return or free 2 hrs parking next to the Co op if you spend £10 there. Altogether a perfect place to enjoy Swanage and explore the Isle of Purbeck.

This is our second time staying in this lovely caravan. It’s always pristine and lovely. I always felt like a home away from home there. The bedrooms are a good size and the extra full bathroom is a definite plus! I’d highly recommend staying here.

We had a blissful few days at Flint cottage. Wonderful kitchen to cook in, and multiple fabulous farm shops nearby. We ordered a heat and eat pie and a DIY breakfast pack for our first night, which made the start of the holiday so much more chilled out. The outdoor bath was also really special. We were so comfortable throughout we just relaxed completely. Can’t wait to come back!

A lovely lodge with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the view. Thank you for the box of goodies too! We will be recommending to friends!

We (family of 4) went looking for a peaceful, tranquil setting to enjoy some family time together and that’s exactly what we found. A beautiful setting, simple yet satisfying accommodation, access to a lovely swimming pool and a good pub within walking distance ticked every box. Fiona was a fantastic host, and we cannot thank her enough for opening up her home and letting our little family enjoy it! We will be coming back

We had a great stay. The place was easy to find, and there was plenty of parking in site. We could let ourselves in as the key was in a key-safe box, and just left the key in the door on leaving so the check-in/out was seamless. The place felt like it was in the middle of nowhere, very peaceful and beautiful countryside. The accommodation itself was basic, clean and comfortable, perfect for our needs. But for us the best bit was the pool and games rooms (the main reason for booking this place). The pool was a decent size, the water was clean and a nice temperature - the kids loved it and the parents loved the sauna which was pool side. The games room was very well equipped with a table tennis table and badminton court (the court was not full size but big enough for fun with the kids), although I'd advise bringing your own bats and balls if you took it seriously ;). The room also had loads of kids toys to amuse the younger ones.

We stayed here for just over a week with our three children -everything was clean and tidy when we arrived and it was a nice place to use as a base for going to the beach/Hengistbury Head. Lovely holiday!
