Lea Hurst Hotel

The Lea Hurst Hotel is a small family run hotel where we enjoy looking after our guests. We are ideally situated just a 4 minute walk from Bournemouth railway and coach stations.

We are a 10-15 minute walk to the heart of the action and shops, and just a 15 minute stroll to Bournemouth's safe, sandy blue flag beaches and green flag gardens. There is forecourt parking at the hotel, plus free unrestricted parking in the street. All the bedrooms are tastefully decorated with full en-suite, colour tv/freeview/dvd and tea/coffee making facilities.

If you have not visited Bournemouth before, we can assure you that it is the South Coast Resort renowned for being clean, green and the place to be seen.

Bournemouth is one of Europe's most stylish holiday destinations, whether you are visiting on a short break, taking in a concert at the Bournemouth International Centre or having a family holiday. Bournemouth is also the ideal base for exploring the Isle of Purbeck and the Jurassic Coast, which has been declared as England's ONLY Natural UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Visit the harbour of Poole and Brownsea Island (The birthplace of the Scout movement), Corfe Castle, Lulworth Cove and the magnificent arch of Durdle Door.

The 1000 year old New Forest National Park is on our doorstep. There can be few other places in England where the ancient landscape has remained so unchanged.

The ancient system established by William The Conqueror to protect and manage the woodlands and wilderness heaths is still in place today through the efforts of Verderers, Agisters and Commoners.

The forest has many museums and Heritage Centres, from stately homes such as Beaulieu to the Roman Villa at Rockbourne.

You can visit historic villages such as Buckler's Hard, where ships for Nelson's fleet were built, using the mighty oaks from the forest. Bournemouth is also the ideal base for visiting such historic places as Stonehenge, Salisbury Cathedral with Britains tallest spire and Winchester the former capitol of England where the doomsday book and King Aurthur's round table can be found. Other local tourist attractions include the World famous Monkey World and Marwell Zoo.

For the more energetic Bournemouth also boasts restaurants, pubs and nightlife to rival London's West End.
