Afternoon Tea

What’s a party without cake?

If you have over 30 guests we’ll serve your afternoon tea as a buffet style. For smaller gatherings we can serve on cake stands or as a buffet, it’s entirely up to you.

Bournemouth Beach

The perfect location

Our beautiful 19th century hotel is one of the most popular baby shower venues in Bournemouth, thanks to our location just a few minutes from the beach and a five minute walk from the town centre.

Ideal if you fancy a stroll along the promenade after your baby shower, or perhaps you’re looking to continue onto another venue in Bournemouth.

Our location also means that there are great public transport links for your guests arriving by train or bus.

We offer FREE parking at the hotel, although this can be busy at peak times so cannot be guaranteed. However, there is FREE residential parking in all the surrounding roads. And we’re lucky to have a long stay car park just a five minute walk away.
