A truly tranquil small hotel, warm welcome into elegant surroundings. Clean,well furnished rooms with comfortable beds. Breakfast selection excellent and cooked to perfection. Quiet location but with easy access to transport, town centre & beaches. 5 stars!!

Just returned after having a great weekend away at The Cransley. The place is immaculate throughout, is tastefully furnished and decorated and has all the comforts of home. It is located on a tree lined avenue only about a 10 minute walk to the bars and restaurants of the Old Christchurch Road area and about 15-20 minutes steady stroll downhill... More

Snug, cosy and friendly. Uplifting decor and wonderful microclimate garden - we were warmed through by a combination if the service, the coffee, the soft duvets and the friendliness of the hosts. Two days was all we had - but we feel as if we've been away for a week. Can't recommend it enough. Scott

Welcoming, stylish and charming place, handy locations for town centre, restaurants and shops and good parking. Owners are good listeners and seem intent on providing whatever you ask for (warmer room, extra marmalade, directions to good dry cleaner). I noticed another review says low shower - mine was about 8 feet high, adjustable). They have docile pets unfazed by stream... More

I had a delightful stay at The Cransley. I stayed here for two weeks while working in Bournemouth. The hosts, Johnny and Simon were wonderfully hospitable, nothing was too much trouble. The room was beautifully furnished and the beds very comfortable. I would highly recommend a stay here. It was a fantastic few weeks and I would certainly go back.

Back from holiday, I have only great memories about my vacation at Cransley. First and last, Cranslay it's a rare beauty, distinguised, elegant a miniature jewel. The owners, Jonathan and Simon are special persons, always there to make you feel a special guest. Great room, bright and clean, everything is functional, the shower is a blessing, the bed is large... More
