Amarillo Guesthouse

Jane and Ged were wonderful hosts, our room was clean and very comfortable with a wide screen t.v. and a nice hairdryer. Tea and coffee are provided with snacks. The breakfast was lovely I had porridge every day made perfectly. We were encouraged to have as much as we wanted and there was a tremendous variety. Jane Ged were very chatty and friendly, there are a lot of brochures of local attractions and they were very informative about most of them. We would definitely stay there again in fact we wouldn't stay anywhere else now.

We booked to stay for our anniversary. We have tried to book before, but they have always been fully booked, and we know why that is now. We stayed in the Hengistbury room, which had a very comfortable kingsize bed with an ensuite shower/toilet, tv, fridge, and kettle with tea/coffee. The decor was stunning and the room was bright during the day and cosy in the evening. Jane and Ged, the owners were really friendly and very accomodating with great communication and info before our stay. When we arrived a lovely lady next door came out and kindly said for us to park on her drive. We loved our stay, and we are already looking to book again.

The room was extremely small for 3 of us but the charge for one night was quite high! There was no breakfast either included. The toilet was extremely small. When we arrived the room was extremely cold and we had to carry our luggage to the first floor. There was no place to park the car and fortunately when we called the guest house owner answered and told us to park in the adjacent property. All this we were not told when we booked so we got the impression that that there would be ample parking place. The owner of the adjacent property came running when we parked and asked us if we had permission by the guest house owner to park there and then only she allowed us to park. NOT A warm WELCOME. THE WORST WAS YET TO COME. My husband found a spider in his bed. It had bit him too in 2 areas in his stomach and the area was red and sore!

What a beautiful little b&b. We only stayed for one night ,we had a lovely warm room on what was a very cold day . The shower was very good. We didn’t have breakfast as we were meeting our grandaughter before heading home. Thank you Jane & Ged for a very comfortable visit.

Owners were out when we arrived but they left info. on how to access the accom. We duly opened the door lock and were greeted with a musty damp smell which was coming from the downstairs rooms? The "King Room" was similar in size to my boxroom at my home (standing area 6x6feet with a sloping ceiling and no hazard warning tape or paint) I banged my head a few times!! The saving grace was the owners friendly and chatty manner.

We loved our short stay (3 nights) at The Amarillo. This gorgeous B&B stands out from all others in every way. The owners, Jane and Jed are welcoming and full of great ideas, offering their advice on where to visit and eat - all tried and tested by them so they know what they are talking about. Parking available and also free parking on the road. The room we stayed in (room 2) was perfect for our stay - beautifully decorated- and a fabulous shower. The entrance to the B&B is lovely and everywhere was spotless. Breakfast is fantastic. Different items arrived each day, great choice and beautifully presented. The beach is 10 mins walk - easy to get to, down the zig zag, and you arrive at a sandy, clean and happy beach. We would stay at the Amarillo again and genuinely hope to do so. If you are thinking of staying in Bournemouth then The Amarillo should be top of your list. A very huge thank you to Jane and Jed.
