    The house is beautiful, clean and lovely and warm on a cold spring day! We had a fantastic breakfast on both days. The staff were friendly and very attentive. I enjoyed watching the deer from our bedroom window each morning.

Heronshaw House is set in the most peaceful surroundings over looking fields and cattle from the neighbouring farm. A perfect escape from reality, with restful rooms and open fires yet just over half a mile from Bournemouth Airport and just four miles from Christchurch. To help provide a relaxing stay we do not have personal TVs in each room, but have wifi, and a TV in our guest lounge which everyone is welcome to use. Please note the best route to the hotel is via the airport junction and easy to find, the other end of Hurn Court Lane is closed with diversion signs.
We have enjoyed welcoming guests both new and returning for a number of years and we aim to make your stay as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. Any special requests we are happy to help with - just let us know.
Many activities are available in the neighbourhood being just five miles from Bournemouth and Christchurch beaches and minutes from Adventure Wonderland. There is also the the Snowtrax dry ski centre for some Alpine fun and horseriding in the area. The New Forest is just 10 minutes away across the Avon Causeway.
